Banish PMS forever! Say see-ya to mood swings

 
Do ya get majorly moody when Aunt Flo comes to call? We feel ya. Luckily, there’s a cure for what ails ya…

 

The cause

Some girls’ hormonal changes mess with the brain’s serotonin, a hormone that improves moods. The result? A gloom ’n’ doom attitude.

 

The cure

“Avoid caffeine. It can make you a little more anxious, and that can make mood swings worse,” Dr. Hirsch says. Studies find that calcium might help prevent crankiness during PMS, so make sure you’re getting your three cups a day of dairy. Get plenty of sleep, and stay active. “Exercise will help your mood,” Dr. Hirsch adds. And it can’t hurt to warn your friends and family when PMSing—they’ll know not to take your crabby ’tude personally.

Hey! Okay, thanks for reading this comment. So I'm 12, haven't started, but I'm still moody? Is this PMS, or what?

 

Hey girlie, it could be. Or it could be stress or something else that has you in a bad mood. There are a lot of things that might cause you to be moody, so unless it's combined with other symptoms, it might not be PMS.

I cant decide if i have the flu or my period is making me feel like i have the flu. My head hurts, my nose is stopped up, I'm coughing, my neck/shoulders/lower back hurt...i feel like poop... Idk what to please tell me what you think i should do

 

Hey girl the only one of these signs that has to do with your period is your sore muscles but that can also be a sign of the flu. I'd talk to your mom and sched an appointment with the doc.

Hey...how are you?
Ok, so I was wondering if these symptoms are pms symptoms:
Moodiness, craving for weird foods( pickles, chocolate milk, Chick-fil-a), slight itchiness down near my vagina. Slight cramps( idk if I'm cramping or if I need to go #2...). My last period ended 19 days ago, but my cycle is super messed up. From July 2011- November 2012 I had 2 periods every month except in August when it was 5 weeks late.

Hey girl,

Those could be PMS symptoms, but it could also be normal cravings and symptoms just from growing up! It's normal to be irregular at first, but if you're worried about your cycle there's no harm in talking to your mom or a doc.
