What do you suggest if my menstrual cycle is a freaking nightmare! any tips to get through it without giving up my life for a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nightmare periods: May be diagnosed as PMDD if they're associated with severe psychiatric symptoms like anger, irritability, labile moods, depression, impulsivity, and other symptoms. See your OB who can evaluate for any contributing medical problem (ie PCOS) & treat. If mood sxs persist discuss PMDD treatment with ur doc. This may include a psych consult & possible SSRI treatment, but is effective for PMDD. Be well
