What do i do if i have mood swings around the time i'm about to start my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe PMDD: If the mood swings coincide with your period and go away after, you may (depending on how severe the symptoms are) have what is called "premenstrual dysphoric disorder" (pmdd). A number of treatments can help. A good first step would be a talk with your doctor.
