Do you get pms symptoms?

[chicken_nugget24]

I recently found out that the birth control pill stops or reduces your periods. But it's still possible to get pms symptoms I believe. Oh what fun it is to be female 😂

I randomly bleed last month for a few days. Previously I hadn't bleeding at all for months. My pms symptoms have always been bad. Right now my boobs feel heavy, I feel tired and I have been bleeding lightly. And the mood swings have been awful 😕

Is it up for my body when it decides to bleed? What's the point of pms symptoms with no bleeding? Should I come off birth control? Please help 😣

Okay... no matter what, as a woman we would ALWAYS have pms symptoms whether we take anything or do anything to not have a period. Mood swings, cramping, headaches, no energy, sweats hot and cold, bloating, breast soreness, priods are sometimes unpredictable, and etc. If your symptoms are very unusual and you're concern try talking to your physician and see what can be done to help you regulate and how to coop with your symptoms. Try getting iron into you when you are on your period as it may be some of the reasons of fatigue, and low energy. But see your doctor first and see what's right for you to take or do with a healthy diet. Good luck.

Okay tysm and I take multi vitamins ❤️

[Emelina]

Multi vitamins are good, but may not be enough for iron intake, bc of blood lost through our periods.

Yeah, every month, but nothing extreme. I usually get a bit emotional for 2 days before my period starts.


Regardless of what contraceptive you take, we as women will always get pms symptoms. And no contraception is guaranteed to reduce or stop your period. It depends on you as an individual. Some women don’t get their period anymore while having the depo shot or an IUD, while other women get even heavier periods/longer periods on those contraceptives.

I have a hormonal IUD, Mirena. I am on my 4 one as it is replaced every 5 years. I have not had a period in 20 years. We had not intention to make crotch goblins. Anyway, if you are not getting a period because birth control thins out the lining of the uterus so it does not have the chance to thicken up and shed. You WILL NOT get traditional PMS symptoms. The only thing I noticed was very mild breast tenderness. I do not recommend Depo Provera injection long term because it destroys bone density. It also causes weight gain.

I don't, no.

As for coming off birth control, I'd recommend talking to your doctor first to see if they can tweak your sister the type altogether. My wife went through four different ones before she found one that didn't mess with her.

Okay thank you ❤️

[SnowedIn]

You're welcome! It was the patch for her. Like a whole new woman. But she had to go through the pill, arm implant, and shots first.

[chicken_nugget24]

I'm not a fan of the patch as it is itchy and gets dirty. And what fun 😭😂

[SnowedIn]

😥 I don't envy you. Sorry for what you go through.

[chicken_nugget24]

It's everyone unfortunately 😔

[SnowedIn]

Right. 😥
