PMDD treatment that worked for a friend
So it's not a secret that doctors and gynecologists are having a really hard time finding successful treatments for PMDD. My friend struggled over 20 years with hell for 2 weeks every month. Until a year ago. Her doctors stumbled upon a combination of pills that has been a real game changer for her.
She has the following combination:
- Clomiplamine (Anafranil)
- Lamotrigine
- Fluoxetine
- Spironolactone
She had tried Lamotrigine, Fluoxetine and Spironolactone by themselves earlier without the same result. So it's either Anafranil by itself or a combination that is helping her. She feels so much better now that she is kind of afraid to remove any of them to try out what exactly is effective.
I don't recommend anyone trying this, that's what doctors are for. Just trying to spread knowledge of possible remedies.
Sorry for any misspelling, English is not my first language.

Thank you for sharing this info. Since PMDD can be very different for each person, can I ask what her symptoms were? And in which areas she noticed improvement?
Severe depression between ovulation and menstruation. High anxiety. Aggression, especially in combination with/due to very high anxiety.
Thank you!
