Extreme fatigue about 1.5 weeks before my menstrual and doesn't end till half way thru my menstrual period..what can help with this?! its so draining

See doctor: Get tested for other causes of fatigue first. Then speak with a gynecologist. Progesterone levels increase during the second half of the menstrual cycle. Progesterone can increase fatigue, anxiety and depression in some. Talk to your doctor about ways to balance hormones.
