I plan on discussing it with my new naturopathic doctor. I hope she can help me!
What about peri menopause?
My doctor put me on a very low dose of Zoloft for 7 -10 days during my cycle because I feel soooo irritable. It's really helped me....you stop taking it as soon as you start! They also put people on birth control, even if it's not needed, to regulate hormones. Blood pressure and other negative side effects can be an issue though. Maybe you can ask your doctor about one of those options.
Hang in there.
