Question:
Help with mood swings, bi-polar disorder and hormones?
About a year ago I started taking my birth control bills continuously to avoid symptoms of PMS. It worked for a while, but then I started "cycling" under my pills (that's what my NP called it) and get irritable, hungry and really angry at unpredictable times. I also take meds for bi-polar disorder (lithium, seroquel, cymbalta, etc) that help tremendously, but can't rid me of this anger and irritability. Does anyone know of any supplements I can take to help boost my mood? Any other words of encouragement are great too. Thanks!
Answers:
Some supplements may be contraindicated with the medicines you are already taking. Ask your doctor about Black Cohosh to see if you can take it with the medications you are on.
