Advice:
Increase in Sex worsening PMDD symptoms?
Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
Hi. I suffer from PMDD.

My biggest problem is the ridiculous mood swing change for the entire two weeks before my period.

I'm currently on birth control and 20mg of Prozac to help with my symptoms. It used to be enough but for the past few months doesn't seem to be doing the job anymore.

I spoke with my mother (who also suffered from PMDD when she was still menstruating even though they didn't have a diagnosis at that time) and she said when she began to have sex, her PMDD symptoms began to get much worse.

My fiance moved in with me a few months ago and I suspect that the increase in sex has possibly caused my symptoms to worsen.

Do you think this may be the case?
