For starters, yes IABU to post this in AIBU purely for traffic, I recognise that and apoligise. Having cleared that up someone PLEASE FUCKING HELP!

I have had period/pms issues since the delightful buggers started when I was twelve, I plodded along (whilst it severely affected my life), I eventually found Agnus Castus and it was fantastic. A few years later I decided it would be a good idea to have a child (it was a brilliant idea, he is amazing and totally worth the shit storm that followed) but now I feel as though I have PMS all month long, the best I feel is during the first few days of my period, which is heavy and painful but it's still the best I feel.

Apparently ovulation sickness is a thing, before I had my son I didn't even notice signs of ovulation but now it kicks in right after my period finishes and lasts until ovulation which is painful and then it's maybe a few days reprieve until the PMS hits.

Agnus Castus isn't working like it did before I had my child, I recently tried certrazette and it was horrific, I was having to take diazepam daily to deal with the anxiety and I'm a bloody veteran in terms of anxiety but I couldn't handle it.

I desperately need a way out of this constant tirade of hormonal crap, does anyone have any suggestions?

I am in all honesty terrified of birth control after certrazette (it was horrific) but I think it's my only option unless anyone has successfully pushed for a hysterectomy? There must be something.

PMDD and severe PMS group on FB have info and people who have had hysterectomies or other treatment. Maybe need to find the right contraceptive pill?

Needed I dont know if this will help you, but my periods became lighter and less painful when I started using a mooncup rather than tampons. Any medic I have mentioned it to says its a coincidence but there have been many reports by women finding the same thing. It might not help with the PMS but it may stop the period itself being so heavy and painful.
