PMS symptoms, is this normal?!


Question: I've been on depo for the last 6 years and just went off last month. Now I'm getting my first period in 6 years and am wondering if it's normal to feel this way.
- I am extremely exhausted. I got 8 hours of sleep last night, had an hour and 20 minute nap a few hours ago and can barely keep my eyes open. Also, I have been almost falling asleep in my night classes the last 2 days.
- really bad cramps, to the point where I don't know if I can exercise.
- extreme eye rolling. Everything is irritating me (I know that one is normal:)

I'm mostly just concerned about feeling so tired!!!! Is that normal?

PMS naturally makes women tired. Since you haven't experienced this in so long, you're body is not used to it, and is over reacting. It is natural, so don't worry. Give it a couple days, drink some coffee, and u should ffeel normal again in a couple days!! good luck!

Yes, fatigue is a common symptom of PMS.

yeah it definitely is completely normal. I get so tired during that time. Just feel so drained. It happens =]

yes it is. your body is goin through the change of not having that depo shot. my freind said it took 2 cycles before her body knew what to do. but you still need to keep active and take midol, it helps with bloating and pain during your menstral

Women have different symptoms and at varying degrees. I would say yes though, if the cramps are really bad try a hot water bottle, hot tea (herbal cramping tea can be found at a health food store), and stay away from caffine and cold drinks. It helps me.

lol extreme eye rolling... yes i think this is pretty normal. take multivitamins on a regular basis they might help. also try thermacare heat patches they r good for cramps
