This has been another PMS week. I actually started crying yesterday when my husband called to tell me something would take effect that we had already discussed. Poor thing, he headed home as soon as he was released to make sure I was alright. I mention that here in case anyone else is struggling with menstrual woes and might be looking for information I linked to on my other blog. I started today, so I’ll likely feel better in the next day or so. 🙂 I hope everyone has a great weekend.
ANOTHER THOUGHT: I should have a button made that I can pin on when I feel the symptoms coming that states “It’s that time” or simply “PMS.” That way G will know what’s happening when I start to flake out on him, and when he should, perhaps tread more lightly. 🙂
I am not sure how this will be taken by many, but actually having a pin or ribbon or something, would certainly help us guys out. We can appreciate the difficulty of the time and are willing to help in any way we can. It would just help us if we knew what we are dealing with. I mean this in a sincere way and hope no one take offense at it.

I think the button idea is pure genius. most husbands would love to have some kind of indication to our moods. sort of like a pin-on barometer, if you will.
Hey Melissa,
Thanks for the Woman to Woman website, I have been struggling with every woman thing possible.
I am not sure if I want to go into details, because quite frankly, it is gross. So, you get the idea.
I am most definately peri-menopause, deep in my heart I knew that was the case. So now at least I know.
What a curse we woman have with our periods. I hate them.
I like you Melissa, have terrible PMT, even thinking about it puts me into a tail spin.
I have every symptom. I am asking the doctor to put me on the pill, I have actually tried hormone therapy but it was not as good as the pill.
The hormone that I had to take was one that I had to take for fifteen days after the first day of my period. It was expensive and I didn’t notice much difference at all. But I have put myself on the pill just for one month, and the difference is incredible. I can have a life, and don’t live in fear of my period being the worst thing in my life. Even my PMT seemed better.
I will let you know if my doctor will allow me to continue with the low does pill.
Anyway, thanks again Melissa for the link!
🙂
