Banish PMS forever! Say see-ya to mood swings

Check these out, too...

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.

Love this post? You’ll heart these, too!

how come you no longer have your period section?

Hey girlie,

Don't worry, we do! Our "YOUR BOD" section just moved over to the Health & Fitness part of GL.com. Hover over Health & Fitness, then hover over Your Bod, then click on Periods, Period for all our period advice, tips, and answers

I really like the section periods, period but every time I come here there is only two things to read. This and the 'can I speed up my period' one. Is that because you stopped making articles for this section or do you think there's something wrong with my computer. Please reply

Hey CottonCandyCutie, yeah we no longer have our period section. There may be more articles in the future. Xoxo

livibear,
I wouldnt use vaseline, GL has always recommended that using a personal lubricant like KY or Astroglide is acceptable. That is what I use, but I wouldnt use vaseline. drugstore.com and amazon.com has that and more and you can also get it easily at the store.
