I can identify with so many of the women on here. Just last week I got into a huge argument with my boyfriend and I felt like my body was about to burst, I was getting really bad chest pains and my breasts were sore, I also get bad cramps and depression. I decided to read about this when I saw a commercial on tv and realized it could be me. Now, the more I think about it each and every time I blow up on my boyfriend like that is around the same time of the month...sometimes I may even have something to drink cause I get a craving for it. Well I told him I think that it could be PMDD and I've been reading about what I can do before going to a doctor to get treated. I'm still going to see a doctor because I came across a website that offers research study for PMDD in my area. I just really want to know if this is what it is because I want to have a good relationship with my boyfriend for more than a couple weeks out of the month. Another thing is, I took birth control about 3 years ago and am wondering if it had some kind of affect on my hormones which is causing me to act this way. I am just so glad I found a site where people are going through the same thing I am and I can get help   Scoring disabled. You must be logged in to score posts.

You are right to research PMDD if this is what you suspect you have. The knowledge you gain will help you when you go to see a doctor for an official diagnosis. I suggest you take some time to read through the posts here on the board, there is some very good information here, as well as the links I have provided. My main web site "PMS & PMDD Information" (link above), will tell you all about symptoms, treatments, etc. All the best, and let us know if you have any questions. Anthea   Scoring disabled.
