    Anonimacy, I just posted a story about magnesium. EP Link

    Magnesium works very well for some women for PMS. I urge you to read the story and get the PDF. Even if taking magnesium doesn't fix your PMS, you can be assured it will benefit your health, because magnesium is one of the body's most critical nutrients. I think most people need more than the US RDA. The RDA should be seen as a floor, not as a ceiling. As a rule of thumb, the higher your calcium intake, the higher your magnesium intake should also be.



    Other things I've heard are good for PMS are Vitamin B6, krill oil, and GLA that is found in borage oil and evening primrose oil. It's also found in spirulina. I'm wary of those last 2 oils because of their high levels of linoleic acid, an inflammation-promoting Omega 6 fat. So I take one spirulina tablet a day for GLA.

      Thank you so much CC! I'll check the story. Great if GNC has a formula. Means it's available here, so I'll check that shake too.

    Anonimacy, I thought I commented on this, but it might have been the night that Ep was acting weird on me.
    I know what you go through. I get so mad at anything I can't control my anger, I get so frustrated! On top of the hormones going crazy the physical pain is so unbearable that I just cry and cry. I sleep well over my permitted 8 hours per night and most of the day. Sometimes it hurts to walk because of the pressure in my hips. At least with all the pain it only lasts 3 days and I am usually all done with everything! I have been punished when I'm like this, but he usually feels really bad afterward. He is really cuddly with me and makes me feel so much better!

      Ewww... sounds awful my friend!!!! At least I don't have any pains. It's not a physical issue but rather a temporary insanity or something , lol.
      The worst are the four or five days previous to my period. Then everything is fine again.
      Have you ever asked your gynecologist about how to treat your symptoms? If you're under so much pain, I think it's worth trying something!

      Ah...dear friend I live in the United States which means I don't have health insurance!
      The insanity thing is why women can kill their husbands while on their cycle and not get charged with murder.

    I'm sorry you've struggled with this. I know that feeling. Skeater displayed incredible insight and wisdom with his comments that other husbands should make note of. I used to suffer from terrible PMS (which my husband referred to as "punish my spouse"). I realized I had be the one to do something about it if I didn't want to drive my husband and myself insane anymore, so I started doing yoga and pilates and going for a mild run 5 times a week. The difference was almost immediate and after several months, I stopped having any PMS symptoms at all. I haven't had any PMS in several years. Also, there's a book by Christiane Northrup called "Women's bodies, women's wisdom " which is just brilliant. I'd recommend every woman read it. But sometimes men can suffer from a serious case of ***, in which case there is nothing you can do but leave the house and go to a movie. By yourself.

      Thanks, I'll check that book!!!!
      I'm actually thinking about going back to the gym next month. I really love to work out but haven't been constant after kids were born. I think it's time. It does wonders to my mood too.

    I find it really helps release my irritation and tension. I never ask to be spanked when it's that time but my husband just knows it's what I need. I also take lots of different suppliments, calcium and fish oils are very good for pms. I used to be a total nightmare but it's managed really well now... touch wood :o)

      You know, I don't have any physical discomfort. It's just that I get irritable, grumpy, tired and out of patience. I know things get better exactly when my period finally arrives, but still it's awful when I'm there feeling sorry for myself. What I cannot even understand is the way I seem to effect my children!! They are little devils too. So, it's me and two extremely naughty boys. No wonder my husband suffers so much every month!
      I've tried some medication, but they all seem formulated primarily for the treatment of physical symptoms of PMS...
      The only thing that I know it's effective is going on the pill. But ... Sounds foolish to use birth control when you're infertile, lol.

      Anonimacy...pamprin is used for physical symptoms but is also used for the irritability, I know a lot of people that take it just for mood swings

      I think vit B6 is good for mood swings but honestly I feel a million times better with everything since I started taking a good quality daily multi and plenty of high strength fish oils. I think that's the way to go because all the vitamins interact with each other :o)

    I don't know if you can whip PMS out of your body. It is a reaction to many changes going on in your body, and I believe we should listen to what our bodies are saying.
    If there are flower/herb medicines that help - try them!
    Otherwise, you both ought to cut each other some slack - give each other space and keep out of each other's way for a day. Then you'd have no one to argue with.

    Perhaps you could try to decrease the unwated effects by using some herbs.
    There are some herbs which are known to regualte the female hormone imbalances. Perhaps you could get a special herbal tea and start to drink it for some days before that time of month. I think it's worth a try.
