Does anyone else experience extreme anxiety leading up to the day of their period, then it stays the entire time and doesn't go away until about two days after it's over?? It it because the hormones are just going up and down? Is there anyway to calm it a little bit because I've basically bitten my nails into knubs lol

    Yes!!!!! I am doing a saliva test next month to see if I'm in peri menopause. Going through it right now. It's awful, especially since I can't get off my Paxil and it has quit working. My anxiety really gets bad when I try to get off of it.

    That was a very good way to make all the boys read the post, Anx.

    Progestogen pessaries are very good for this.

    Ask your doctor for a referral to a gynaecologist.

      I figured they would think it was menstrual related and not even want to see it lol. Oh well, welcome boys! Haha

      Well, a few months ago a woman went into gruesome details about her period and a man answered.

      Yeah, that would be very reassuring.
