I have had PMDD for about 7 years.
PMS was always bad but I think mine started when I had a copper coil fitted. Somehow (I believe I don't really have proof though) my body had some sort of reaction to the copper and from there it has been downhill.
I now manage my PMDD with a Mirena, 20mg Citalpram and Bio Identical Progesterone cream which I have prescribed from a private Doc. My own GP now (have moved) won't prescribe Bio Prog cream only the synthetic one.
Anyone else a sufferer and what do you do?
