I’ve noticed that about 4/5 days before I’m due to come on, my skin is horrendous and I just feel exhausted. Does anyone else get this and has anyone found anything to help?

I get this. I find I suddenly feel my leg muscles when walking up stairs. Hair and skin look frazzled. Then the day before and the day of I feel absolutely great, never better. I find Magnesium-OK and complex b vitamins help lessen the impact of these symptoms.

Yes! For the few days before my period starts if I sit down i fall asleep! Chin full of spots too. It's like early pregnancy exhaustion...way worse than normal tiredness.

Yep I’m the same, terrible skin, hair won’t do anything and I could eat everything in sight!

Funnily enough when I got the coil they said my periods would be better or stop altogether - certainly didn’t happen for me.
