For me, the worst is the week before my period (I get extremely tired and dehydrated) and the first few days after it starts. A heating pad and Chamomile tea always help me, especially right before bedtime.

Feel better!

This is something I stuggle with and have ever since I got IBS-C. Anxiety gets super bad and IBS-C comes right along with it! I read all the posts under your message but I didn't read anything about Estroven. Have you heard of it?? Well I wanted to pass on my good experience with it. I have been on it for about 2 months and this past month's period wasn't bad at all!!! It takes a while to get in your system (2-3 weeks or so). And all it is is vitamins and herbs that assist us females with our PMS. It is worth a try! I buy it at wal-mart in the equate brand for about $5.50 per month. Plus, it helps me sleep since it has a calming herb in it. I also buy Estroven PMS to take around the first 2-3 days before I start my period. That has a natural diuretic and all in it. Anywho, give it a go sometime! Oh, and you can search it on the internet too!

I am also experiencing it right now...so much fun...ha ha
I always have it bad during my first day or so and i just take one immodium and it helps. NOTHING helps with the cramps though for me...just lucky i guess
