Does anyone take supplements?

I am trying saw palmetto and estrosense but only just started? Has anyone had any benefit from these?

I take St.Johns Wort which helps with the depression but not much else.

Hi, for the last month as recommended by my naturopath I take - estrosense, magnesium, chasteberry, b6 pyrex.

She did tell me if I suffered more with depression symptoms htp is recommended over chasteberry.

The biggest thing to eliminate is stress, they more stress I have the pmdd is ten times worse. I try to do gentle yoga and walks to help with this.

Magnesium Citrate (It has to be citrate) 300-400 mg daily
B6 Pyrex (Not generic B6) - Natural Diuretic
Calcium 1200 MG daily
Evening Primrose oil capsules 2-3 daily for breast tenderness
Vitamin E 200 MG daily

If your taking St John's wort you CANNOT be on birth control, it makes the birth control less effective

ALWAYS GET HIGH QUALITY VITAMINS!!
