First day of my period and I’m in agony.
I have PCOS and have run out of transexamic acid ( my own fault)

PMT has been really rough this month and now I feel like I’m being ripped apart. - almost as bad as labour.

I hate being a female on my first period day too. Fucking sucks and I don't even have your complications.

Skin goes shite. My mood sucks and I'm a grumpy bitch. I'm argumentative and emotional. Hate changing tampons. Hate feeling like someone is grabbing my uterus and squeezing it.

I get very angry at the male side of our race on those days 😂

Can you ring your GP for an emergency prescription? Hope you start to feel better OP... If all else fails knock yourself out with some valium? 😂

I’m going to self medicate with chocolate and booze.

Was it just me who thought this was going to be about being trans? Grin

Flowers, OP.

Do you get Tranxemic acid on prescription? If so go to your usual pharmacy and tell them. They should give you some against your next prescription.
I have migraines and if I run out my pharmacy always lets me have some as they know I get it prescribed.

I did too Butchy 😂

I normally avoid those ones. I'm late to the debate so I have no idea what's going on 😂

I hear ya. Not pcos related but I still have spd from when I was pregnant and I'm lying in bed feeling like my leg is trying to detach from my hip socket. Hope the choc and booze help Cake

First day here too, it sucks... I ate all the chocolate in the house on Friday (my craving starts day or two before) so now there is none and I want to stamp and shout!

Plus I never think ‘oooh I’m eating all the crap, maybe I’m about to come on’, I just descend into self loathing about my lack of willpower and control.

Well i’ve Had 2 slightly stale crispy creme doughnuts, numerous random sweets and half a large bag of cheesy dorito’s

I can’t bring myself to care - the thought of work tomorrow is depressing.
