hello everyone i just got on here the other night and decided to post about pre-menstral dysphoric disorder since i havbe suffered from it since about age 17. it is where you have bad hormonal flucuations and about one good week out of the month. symtoms: hot flashes, low or high sex drive, crampy, irritated, impatient, anxious, crave certain stuff, depression, fatigue, etc. these things are not all the time but more than they should be. hormones control us soo much and i have found a pretty good balance b/w my anti-deppressant and birth control but it is still hard to have and just wondered how many other mother's/woman out there suffered from this as well.
You just discribed my life. I am also on an anti-depressant and birth controll for hormone balance. my sex drive is non-exsitant and my hot flashes really suck. I was told it is pre-menopausal but who knows?
