Anyone’s PMDD develop into general depression or is this just a rough month?

Question

I have been dealing with PMDD symptoms for a long time. But I finally felt like I needed to seek help. My doctor put me on a supplement and said try for 3 months. It eased it but not enough. She just prescribed me Prozac to try just during the luteal phase. So I haven’t gotten there yet. The thing is. This month my symptoms let up for 2 days then returned.

Answer

How did it help to take Prozac during your luteal phase?? I’m dying to find something that’ll help my pms. I’m convinced I have pmdd but my ob and primary both brush me off about my symptoms because my hormone labs always come back normal. I hate how I feel 7-10 days before my period and sometimes the first couple days of AF…I’m TTC so can’t take both control and even when I wasn’t and on a low dose pill, it made it worse! I just want some relief! I hate that I can’t have a normal mood during this point of my cycle and for me it’s the anger and irritability. I get sad/emotional/sensitive too but the feeling of everything just being soooo overwhelming. 
Please tell me your experience with this or if you found something that works. I try to eat good, get rest, exercise etc but doesn’t seem to make a big difference.
