for the pms in general - evening primrose oil. you can get it in tablet form and it helps a lot. also omega-3 can make a difference, it did with me. play around with your diet a bit too, you'll find cutting some things out, adding more things in will help control your irritability but unfortunately thats a bit of a trial and error thing.
for your breasts get some cabbage and stick it in the fridge, then rip off the leaves and put them in your bra it'll stop them hurting/stinging so much (you won't smell like cabbage either which is pretty good!). when i get pms i basically want to rip the head off anybody who even glances within 20 feet of my breasts and the ONLY thing i've found that helps is the cabbage leaves (thanks to all you breastfeeding mothers out there who put me on to that idea!!)
Midol, helps with pain. Not a lot helps with mood swings. I guess just stay away from him for a few days or he'll just have to get used to it.
Wait until they are over.
Ahh that sucks..
take something like a paracetamol and co-codomol based painkiller like nurofen plus, or feminax (which is made specifically for period pains) which you can buy over the counter and the chemists, which if anything, will help a bit with the pain.
And for the pms, i take evening primrose oil which you can buy really cheap (its kinda the same thing as cod liver oil tablets except not so gross =P ) at the chemist, or health shop like Holland and Barret, somewhere like that. Taking that every day will help with your hormones and calm you down a bit.. you have to take it every day, not just on your period but throughout the month. it's natural and its not an instant miracle cure but beleive me, its a damn site better than going without!
Hope this helped, x
