Period hormones

I love my fiancé. But I got my period and it has made me a raging hot tempered person. I know I tend to have a short fuse as it is. Not sure the best way to deal. Any suggestions with the mood and massive cramps? My mother even commented that it is better that he is stuck with me instead of her. Then I got cranky while at work and he was like "why are you acting like this". so of course that just got me more annoyed. At the point to tell him to go stay with his parents then.
