Males don't get PMS, but we are subject to moods and outside influences that make use feel bad.  Sometimes diet plays a part in this or just stuff that happened that day.  I know that I put all kinds of self-importance on my job and how I'm performing.  If I feel like I don't do well, I can get depressed for days.  Figuring out what your trigger is can help you deal with it from a rational level.

Go to the doctor.  They can put you on birth control pills to regulate your period.\n\nYou want to straighten it out now.

First of all, big sympathy! Here are a few ideas for you of some treatments which might help:\nChamomile - in tea form - you'll want one which contains the flowers not the leaves too, preferably Dr. Stewart's, as it contains the essential oils too. Add honey, otherwise it's an acquired taste. This will relax you. Dr. Stewart's also do a brilliant herbal tea called "Tranquility" which really does de-stress you powerfully. It doesn't taste very nice, and you will want to add some honey, but it certainly does the trick!!\n\nEvening Primrose Oil capsules - helps with mood swings, and water retention. Always a good idea for women to take this every day, as it's good with balancing oestrogen (so I understand).\n\nEssential oils (either a few drops mixed into a carrier oil for massaging into pulse points if you're on the go, or a few drops in the bath, or used in an oil burner - put some water in the dish, add a few drops and light the tea-light, making sure the dish doesn't burn dry):\nLavendar (relaxing), clary sage (reviving, mood-balancing, uplifting), rose or ylang ylang (uplifting). Geranium, chamomile, and neroli are all uplifting, and frankincense is relaxing, uplifting and good for meditation (always a good idea when suffering from PMT) and clear-headedness.\n\nDark chocolate releases endorphins into the bloodstream, helps boost the immune system, and is a super-food (more of the good stuff and less of the fatty stuff than you get in milk chocolate). So I'd recommend eating a few squares of that if you need an extra little lift.\n\nHope this helps, and remember you're not alone in this - isn't nature fun? At least it gives us some ways of making it better!

Try and get out and do new things, things that you aren't bored with.  You say you go through this once a month, is it possibly a part of your menstral cycle that is affecting you?  Worth checking it out.  To be depressed you don't need to be sigh, sigh, sob, so that is worth looking into.  Good luck

From my experience... you can try a couple things. \n1. Try douching with warm water.\n2. Try masterbating/intercourse.  your "chemicals" have been know to speed up the menses. \nI use to play the "hurry it up" or "push it up" when I was on the BC pills for the weekends with B/f but that worked with pills. \nHowever, I dont think your can completely stop mother nature...once its started.  try hurrying it up.

I can honestly say that I don't suffer from PMS that badly.  I get the cramps and sore breasts but my emotions never get the best of me.  My husband never knows when it's that time of the month unless I tell him.  I guess I am just fortunate that way.

Find something that alleviates stress like running and playing an instrument. Cry when you need it and dont convert sadness into bitterness.\n\nGoodluck it's common....\n\n\nhttp://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/

I am presuming you are going through this mystical journey right along with the rest of us, huh?  Well, there is no set age or time for women, it's all according to each individual woman's body. For me, sometimes I feel miserable, other days I'm fine. My worst symptoms are frequent major headaches, change in body temperature and some mood swings. The "monthly visitor" hasn't completely stopped coming around but I can't wait till it happens.  Meanwhile, we all gotta cope......LOL

i turned 34 two months ago, and i know where you're coming from.  i also had a tubal, which i thought was affecting everything from my mood, to my body fluids, and i even stated LOSING weight! (tried before, didnt happen).  maybe it's pre-menopause, at least that's what my ob/gyn tells me;  it could also be hormonal changes other than pms- my doctor told me to start exercising and take b12 supplements. hope you feel better and i hope this helps!

Or you could go to a Chiropractor.  They are known for helping women get through their cycle with minimal amounts of pain, bloating, etc.  No meds and you allow your body to do what it has to do to stay healthy.\n\nHaving a period is like a tree that loses it leaves in the fall.  The leaves come back eventually.  Nature deems it necessary.  Trees don't say to other trees, how do keep my leaves all winter long?  Nature deems you have a period once a month, you should get it once a month.  \n\nNot to say it doesn't hurt, but don't eliminate it.  There is plenty you can do to make it easier on you without taking meds or screwing with your physiology.  When you start screwing with your physiology worse things will happen than having a period once a month.\n\nAgain, see a Chiropractor, email me and i'll help you find a good one.  I known good Chiros all over the world, I am one.

A hot water bottle on your tummy always seems to help me. Also, try to avoid fatty foods before and during the period.

I would defiantly go to the gynecologist! They will probably put you birth control pills to regulate your menstrual cycle. Hope this helps!

Is this a normal reaction for you? If so, it could be one of the signs of depression (crying easily, mood swings, etc), and you should talk to your doctor and tell him how you feel. He might be able to prescribe you medication.\n\nIf it's not normal for you, it could be just female mood swings or PMS, or it could be related to other stress in your life. Do you have a lot going on right now? If so, try talking to someone older who you trust, maybe a school counselor or somebody from your church/job, etc.
