PMT Horrendous After Long Gap
« on: July 07, 2014, 08:20:46 AM »

After an 11 month gap I had a period- I knew it was coming as I had mucus discharge and felt hormonal. It was light and easy to manage.

 Then I knew I was cycling again as still no night sweats as they stopped prior to the period. Well then starts PMT- just like the old days I used to suffer with but magnified 10 times!  No sign of another bleed- now on day 28 but have fuzzy head, feel bloated, ratty irritable and rather horrid! Feel like I am going to start everyday but nothing except maybe a hint of yellow discharge.

Anyone else have this horrendous PMT after long gaps in peri?

I think I prefer night sweats and no periods even with the rubbish nights.

Oh no Bunnie that is dreadful. Do you think you will have another period again? I really thought I was done, or at least I would have just one last period, but it looks like there is more drama ahead at least for now. Have your night sweats come back?

Try eating regularly throughout the 24 hours. Helps stop that anxiety surge.  Also make sure you are drinking enough.  It's awful, I remember it well from the 1990s  :'(

My night sweats are still absent and PMT continues. I think I will have another period before this stops - feel very hormonal and shattered.
