Another bottle containing Chaste tree (to regulate progesterone- she thinks I dont get enough which is causing mood swings, too much oestrogen) I was wondering if anyone else had tried any of the above herbal remedies, and what your response was to them? Thank you..
Chamomille tea would help your anxiety. Also, magnesium but you don't want to take it at the same time. B vitamins help the mood swings of PMS. I've heard st.johns wort is good for mental health but have never tried it. Exercise is good also.
