5082295 tn?1371250911 The multiple symptoms reported by women with both irritable bowel syndrome and premenstrual distress syndrome suggest that this group may be particularly challenging to treat and may require a multicomponent (e.g., education, diet, relaxation, cognitive restructuring) approach. Chart out lifestyle measures which included regular exercise, specific diet schedules and stress reduction protocols. And you can use OTC Acetaminophen for relief from pain. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn //www.womenshealth.gov/menstrual-cycle/premenstrual-syndrome/premenstrual-dysphoric-disorder-pmdd They normally treat this. The ways that they do are often selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRI's (like zoloft, prozac, etc.). They also may start a woman on birth control pills which can help. And lifestyle things like stress management can be important. Yes, hormonal changes during the cycle are thought to play a role. Which is why birth control that regulates that can help.

Avatar f tn i am taking 80 mg fluoxetine plus 45 - 60 mg buspirone and i was wondering if there is reason for concern about serotonin syndrome with such a cocktail at those dosages. if it's a bad idea to be taking so much of the both of them, it's not necessarily a big deal for me to d/c them as i still lay in bed all day! -- but what's next? thanks...
Avatar f tn A study done in 2009 by the Department of Behavioral Science at Eastern Virginia Medical School concluded that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, are one type of prescription medication effective for this disorder. Some common SSRIs include fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine and sertraline. The study listed other pharmacologic treatments for skin picking, such as inositol, clomipramine, doxepin, inositol, lamotrigine, olanzapine, naltrexone and riluzole.

Avatar n tn The symptoms being experienced by you can be due to premenstrual syndrome or implantation. All you can do is wait for your periods. If they are delayed take up pregnancy test. If pregnancy test is negative you may need evaluation for causes of secondary infertility like blocked tubes, PID, ovulation dysfunction etc.Consult a gynecologist for more queries and assistance. Nest wishes and regards!
Avatar f tn Some women get very emotional and feel irritable, have headaches, feel bloated, experience tummy or back pain and the nipples can be tender. This is called PMT (premenstrual tension) it is also know as PMS (premenstrual syndrome). If you get feelings like that, a good healthy balanced diet with fruit and veg helps. And Evening Primrose Oil. Hope that helps. Best wishes.
Avatar m tn It is likely to be premenstrual tension (PMT) sometimes called premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Eating a healthy and well balanced diet with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables and cutting out or cutting down on junk and sugary foods and processed foods as well as fizzy drinks can help. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids and especially water. You may also find Evening Primrose oil helpful. You can purchase the capsules from large superstores or from the herbal shop.
Avatar f tn Hi ive just been put on tramadol 50mg every 4-6 hrs as well as 20mg fluoxetine a day and 10mg of amitriptyline at night. Can someone tell me if this combination of drugs is safe to use as my doctor and pharmacist refuse to give me a straight and.
Avatar n tn This is a common premenstrual syndrome. Try drinking extra water and limiting salt. Water helps flush the system and salt can cause more bloating.

Avatar f tn Thank You very much for your answer, it helped a lot, now I know what should I do. Thanks again.
Avatar m tn I currently take 20mg of Fluoxetine daily. I was recently prescribed Tramadol for migraines; however, through my research it appears as though these together may have significant increased chances of seretonin toxicity. What is the likelihood of a problem with taking these two medications? What should I be concerned with? Is it okay to take these two together?
Avatar f tn Hormone fluctuations can result in several problems such as perimenopausal difficulties, premenstrual syndrome, mood swings, fibroids, heart disease, breast cancer, and ovarian cysts. Usually, women don’t completely meet what their bodies need—food and exercise to reduce stress and feel better. Diet, nutrition, and workout are some of the common lifestyle changes that can help women restore hormone balance.
Avatar m tn You can also get the symptoms you have from a hormonal imbalance, and around 10 days before a period until your period starts. This is called premenstrual tension (PMT) sometimes called premenstrual syndrome (PMS). How many days late are you to having your normal period? This will help to establish whether you took the pregnancy test at the wrong time.
