The response to: Lowered hormones within the brain is variable, but often there is some dysphoria. This activates reward, often, and food is rewarding. This is likely it, the psychiatric pathways are well theorized and likely very close to what is actually occurring. You may get improvent if u treat ur pms, if u have it. Do you sleep less but are more tired during that time?
