Not that I noticed, anyway. But, then again, I never thought I had a big problem with PMS. (Other people might think differently though! )

I've been on the BC pill lo loestrin fe and my PMS symptoms have gotten better, but it's causing the lamictal to be less effective and ultimately I'm feeling worse. Annnddd gaining weight. So there's that.

Zoloft helps my PMDD but it is still bad. BC pill makes it worse for my mood state (bipolar, too).

I've upped my Zeldox/Geodon for this round of PMDD, so far its not been too bad, still have a few days to get through though. If I dont get batshit crazy and hopelessly suicidal, its a good month.

For me, Prozac at 40 mg 2 weeks before my period had been pretty good. I take 20mg the rest of the month. I used to take the Prozac with lamictal which was even better but had to stop the lamictal due to cognitive side effects. Sometimes klonopin is needed too if the irritability is really bad.
