Hello all! I am a 24 year old female with a two year old son. My periods used to be regular with the same symptoms. I would always know what day my period would come and I would have symptoms for one day and that was it. The worst symptom for me was always cramps. Ever since I’ve had my son my periods have changed so much! They are not as predictable. I have a range of about 5-6 days it could come. Then, my PMS starts 7-10 days before my period. I’m insanely hungry, moody, thirsty, more sensitive to caffeine and I can’t sleep. My anxiety and depression also increases. My face flushes red as well and that is scaring me. When I actually get my period all the symptoms go away, I don’t even get cramps anymore! The worst symptoms during my actual period are just headaches and fatigue. Can anyone relate to PMS being worse than their period? Or having your cycle change after having children? Thank you all!
