so I’m wondering if something is up with my hormones. Once in a while and this month seems to be a biggie, I’m getting like PMS after my period. Bloating, crying, weird mood, all after my period. This isn’t the first time but the crying is real strong and apparently it might be a thing but not? I don’t know I just want to cry and cling to my boyfriend.

For me the strong feelings come and go through out the year. Some months I get nothing, some months I get angry, some months I get sad. I always get horny though.

sometimes PMS makes me actually suicidal and I do not appreciate that, hormones. It's not that often thankfully, usually it's just days of "why this, why life" depression and then my period starts and I'm like OHHHHHHHHHHHH all the pieces have fallen into place.

That's how it is with my wife too. I always know exactly when her period is due because it's like a switch has been flicked and all of a sudden she is really grumpy, irritable and outright mean. I've been enjoying that today, in fact - she woke up in a good mood, and then in the time it took me to have a shower and make some coffee she suddenly hates everyone's guts and is refusing to get out of bed. She never chalks it up to PMS until after the fact, though.

Uh... Ladies, if your period is making you suicidal, please talk to your doc. There's this thing called PMDD that can really gently caress you up to dangerous levels, mentally, and there's treatment.

My girlfriend is the first woman I've ever dated who can tell ahead of time when the PMS is coming. It's refreshing to see warning lights before the storm rolls in. Gives me time to get things ready to help her and adjust my expectations.

I get those horrible chin pimples that are deep and buried and undetectable, but hurt so bad it feels like there's a mean doorknob on my face. E: but those Thera Healing Sticks totally work if I use one in the first 48 hours of doorknobface.

I really only ever get zits if I'm reading the news too much, because I'll just have my face in my hands the whole time. Also stress acne. So it's a double whammy.

If you have CBD (or can get CBD) it will help even more, in my experience. When I got my new Mirena, I was huffing on my CBD vape so hard I felt like I was at Urban Outfitters. e: This is my third IUD (second Mirena) and it seems that I have as of this month opted out of the blood scourge. ee: I know he technically isn't, but I'm pretending the skellybones in my av is smoking a joint because then it is the most 100% me thing I ever saw.

I got a notification on my phone today from my period tracking app that said 'hey that extra upswing in your step today is from the estrogen! enjoy!" and I read it when I was so tired I thinking about having a nap instead of doing my workout. Slept fine, not sick, just tired. Apparently my hormones are broken.

the apps seem to mostly be good for not being like "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" when a doctor asks you when your last period was. The one I use has a weird anonymous message board that's filled with religious huns, I like to read it and get mad when I'm riding the red wave.

I use Flo and it's pretty good about figuring out when my period will start, which isn't a hard task because it's pretty regular, but it keeps wanting me to buy the premium version. I cannot think of anything I would want to pay for on an app that's only job is track my cycle and it does that for free.

I never get the kind of stereotypical PMS where you sit on the couch and cry and eat a pint of ice cream every night. PMS makes me irritable and angry and very impatient. It makes me a terrible unpleasant person and I am confessing my sins here. There was a 70+ year old lady in front of me in the line at Kroger. She’s going over and over oral b toothbrush heads with the cashier who is 18 and doesn't know a drat thing about denture care or soft vs hard vs wtfever. I put on my brightest voice, crinkled my eyes like I was smiling (because masks) and said “Take them all home and experiment!" She turned to me and laughed and said "They are $28 each!” I couldn't resist it and replied, "Well, maybe you should’ve decided before you got in line then!" Sorry ma'am. I'm usually pretty chill. e: DicktheCat posted:Uh... Ladies, if your period is making you suicidal, please talk to your doc. There's this thing called PMDD that can really gently caress you up to dangerous levels, mentally, and there's treatment. This. This this this. I was on the edge pretty much all the time, now I'm just on the edge one or two days a month for a few hours. Thanks Effexor! Thora fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Oct 13, 2020 |

You know what's gross? Peeing and then having a torrent of blood & clots drain out of you at the same time. These drat MRI results still haven't come back, unfortunately. I'm...not quite nervous, I just really want to know what the deal is.

Slept fine, not sick, just tired. Apparently my hormones are broken. A year or so back I started taking a multivitamin + iron tablet and a cod liver oil capsule daily, and I know all the "it does nothing! you piss it all out! it's all a scam!" talk, but it was honestly lifechanging. I went from so tired every day I was napping in the afternoons, to being wide awake and energetic at all normal hours within days. I also stopped getting hangnails! It might have been low iron due to bleeding all the time, but even so. When I stopped taking them for a couple of months I started crashing out again and the hangnails came back. I just use the cheap ones from the supermarket, not any special brand. Vitamin d is also supposed to help ward against corona, and vitamin e supplements have been shown to help with severe pmdd. I sound like a shill, but for basically no money it was honestly amazing the difference it's made. I still get super twitchy and irritable and can't concentrate on poo poo the few days before my period, though, hormones kinda suck. Maybe the horniness makes up for it though.

Does anyone else get this feeling on your period where you’re desperately bored and restless and you need to do SOMETHING, ANYTHING, or you’ll go insane, but every possible activity also feels completely unsatisfying and boring so you’re just in a foul mood all day Basically this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbvO104irKM

I'm starting to wonder if I need to start asking about PMDD. I'm a few days out and I just had this insane weird adrenaline rush/panic attack thing where I thought for a second I was having a stroke or a heart attack. I'm still insanely tense to a painful extent.I feel l I'm like 80% sure it's a hormone thing, because this is about when weird poo poo starts happening to me. Like why is it just the last couple years my pre-menstrual symptoms are going beyond just basic moodiness and cramps? Pisses me offfff. I feel like I need to find a new primary care doctor because they don't seem to take my concerns super seriously. Buh.

Yeah I should probably as well. It feels like the older I get the worse my pms symptoms get. I didn't used to have pms stuff at all in my teens and early twenties and it's crept up on me so slowly I barely noticed. I'm in that tense panic right now. It's like as soon as I get past ovulating my brain is like hey gently caress you pal, I'm going to misfire now. It's not everyday before my period, but it happens enough I've started to notice the pattern.

My period never showed, just a tiny amount of blood once, so I thought "oh, cool, I am now someone for whom the IUD eliminates periods!" Then it showed up, twelve days late. On my tenth goddamn anniversary! Good thing he's already seen more of me than anyone else could stomach!

You're for sure correct, I got my blood tested a while ago and I'm low on vitamin D. I used to take supplements but it's just one of things that slips your mine daily while catering to a toddler. Thanks for reminding me, I'm off to have one now, hopefully I will remember long enough it to make a difference. Then I can forget again and the cycle will begin again.
