Agnus Castus for PMT - what dose, what brand, tablet/tincture?

My PMT is getting worse. Is very very bad at the moment. So much so that I am worried about my lack of control, anger, feelings of violence towards everyone, especially myself. Was diagnosed with PND after birth of ds, but two years, ad's and counselling later, I am starting to think that PMT is a big factor in my depression. Need to sort it out.

I'd like to do agnus castus, but don't want to mess around - I need it to be good quality and after a bit of searching on the interweb I'm confused. Can anyone advise?

Oh, and I am still bf once a day - can I bf and use ac?

TIA

Apologies for rogue apostrophe (ads), PMT has killed sense of humour, perspective, and brain.

I have just ( 3 weeks now ) started taking this, I am also pre menstrual at mo. & not feeling too bad , so fingers crossed!!

I bought mine on line approx £10 from bodykind.com.

I also take evening primrose & multi vits.
I am not sure about b/f & taking a/c. but i guess you could do a search.

Agnus castus can actually promote beast milk. I take agnus castus form
www.woodlandherbs.co.uk

A Scottish herbal medecine school where they make the tincture on the premises. I prefer tinctures to tablets. I take approx 10-15 drops twice a day. It makes a huge difference IMO - give it 3 months to work into your system though.
