I seem to have PMS symptoms whether or not I have a period that month and they last for up to two weeks BEFORE I even bleed. I seem to get ridiculously emotional and completely unreasonable the closer I am to bleeding. My girlfriend and I have a terrific relationship but sometimes I get out of hand with my emotions and I morph into a crazy person. Any advice about how to not turn into a crazy asshole once a month?

I am not rainbowed, but I seen your post and had to answer it.

I morph too. It is crazy how it happens and then it comes on strong. My hubs usually expects it and stays clear of me. But I changed to the "patch" for Birth control. I have been on pills since June 2007 and was still angered easily. So my new ob/Gyn said that the path will help. I was on it for 3 weeks, the anger seem to disapate faster, but since I weigh over 300lbs, it wasnt working as a birth control (That I needed). So now I am back to BCP's. My hubs hopes it will get better as I lose weigh. I hope so to. I go to therapy, but not as regularly anymore. That doesnt help either. So weight loss seems to be helping at this point.

Hi,
Ok, this is my first post.
Glad to see that there's a "rainbow room" here
I wasn't really digging on the fact that everyone and their "DH" want a kid.
I am recently diagnosed (almost 1 month) not on any meds not changing anything yet.
I guess I had a mood swing at the start of this post and I know exactly what you mean - I too morph and become a person I don't like...My partner can't stand it but is quite forgiving and understanding...Some things that have helped in the past but may have been flukes were...increased aerobic exercise and cutting out caffeine.
Granted I'm new to the world of PCOS I believe that everything I have experienced that has interrupted my life, my thinking or my mood has been directly related to pcos...i'm currently in a very enlightened place about this as I have recently gotten over my initial denial...
hope this helps...
akronson, are you also on meds?
Jen.
