Hoping someone can shed some light on this!
Over the last little while, I've had worse PMS symptoms towards the end of my period rather than before. I'll still get cramps and sleepiness etc beforehand but my mood swings and anxiety from day 4/5 is horrendous. I'm exhausted, emotional, headaches and body aches, no motivation. I just end up sleeping and crying!
Is this just me?!

Nope it’s not just you. I’m exactly the same, currently waiting on blood test results to check my hormones but after doing some reading on here I don’t think the tests are reliable so I’m not holding out much hope in regard to answers.

It's so weird isn't it?! Used to be the standard pre-period weeping, but this is totally different! I definitely have had thoughts I may also have PMDD.
