Birth control and PMDD

Kaitlin

I haven’t seen a doctor about it, but I think I might have PMDD, a more intense version of PMS where I feel like I’m depressed and anxious and have no motivation to do anything for up to two weeks before my period starts. Does anyone know if starting birth control would help with this? I want to see what the general public thinks before I go ahead and schedule an appointment with a doctor.
