How old are you? How long is your cycle and is it regular?
I have suffered the past 2 years with horrific pmt, irregular periods, pain, heavy and erratic, migraines, the lot.
I've managed to give up smoking (without putting on weight and with a history of eating disorders I know how smoking can be a method of weight control), drink more water, sleep more and eat a better diet. Far more pulses, nuts and fruit than before. Exercising more.
I've also had a reem of tests done with nothing conclusive coming back. I went to a private dr in Spain who has prescribed me with noristorene for a couple of months.
The change is immense and I feel near enough normal. I'm a bit worried as its only a short term medicine. You can't take it for a long time and then after that I have cerazette. I'm going to leave it for a month to see if its all gone back to normal (I don't think it has).
My dr, however, is keen to get me on the coil. She says that it's better for pmt than the pill. I'm not so sure and tbh, I've heard more horror stories than good. At least if I don't like it I can stop when I want.
