Hi. I remember reading a thread on here a few weeks ago relating to periods and anxiety, but I can't seem to find the original thread so sorry for posting some of the same questions again.
I have noticed over the last few months that my anxiety really gets much worse about 10 days before my period, and my grandmother suggested that I go on the pill, and see if it can control the hormones somewhat. I asked the doctor about this and he said that he didn't think it would make a difference, but that I could try it if I wanted too. The last time I was on the pill was before I had anxiety, but I do remember my period pains and PMT going down quite a lot.
Basically, I was just wondering if anyone has gone on the pill for their anxiety and if it has made a difference, as I find it quite annoying having to suffer 2 weeks out of every month with very high anxiety. Any advise would be much appreciated.
