 Hello,
PMS is very common and is most likely caused by hormonal fluctuation. Many women have improved their symptoms with an excellent diet, exercise and stress reduction. In addition there are several medications which are sometimes effective including Prozac, Yaz birth control pills, Alprazolam, Sprionolactone and GnRH agonist (used for a short time due to side effects).
When antidepressants are used you may have the double benefit of mood improvement along with other PMS symptom management benefits.
You should see a doctor about your symptoms and possible treatment options.
Best wishes.
