Well I think the pill as a treatment caused me to go psycho, but only
before my period ok. Major/Major PMS starting 8 days before my
period-my hormones were so messed up, well also has to do with the
stress of the disease * then the stress of the pms, which then causes
the endo to grow...viscious cycle, but it just seems the PMS all started
when I got off of the pill! For 20 years I have dealt with the estrogen
dominance/pms(I really never knew what this was until recently) THEIR IS
HOPE though ladies- search this site for natural treatments...It is
possible to get back to feeling good again!
