You love everybody. You can’t stand anybody. All at the same time. Hello hormones.
Before and during your period, hormones are hard at work moving your body through each phase. When those hormones rise and fall, so does your mood.
During PMS and your period, expect to feel everything from crabbiness and anger to feeling more anxious or down than normal.
You can't avoid the mood swings that come with your period, but it does help to get good sleep, stay active, and steer clear of caffeine and unhealthy foods to keep the lows from feeling too low. These choices can also cut down on breast tenderness, acne, bloating, and food cravings that come with the menstrual cycle.
