Any decision to take supplements should be reviewed with a primary care professional. I am sharing my own personal experience in this episode, the information shared should not replace guidance from a medical professional. 

 The week before my period used to feel unbearable—like a switch flipped and everything changed. This wasn’t just PMS. It was intense mood swings, exhaustion, anxiety, and crying spells that showed up like clockwork.

In this episode, I share my real experience navigating perimenopause symptoms, hormonal imbalance, and the frustration of being told I was “too young” or that this was just something to live with.

We get into:

•  The difference between PMS and perimenopause mood swings
•  Why so many women are dismissed when they bring up hormonal mental health symptoms
•  My journey trying different birth control options and looking for real solutions 

I also walk through my experience with Slynd (drospirenone), a progesterone-only birth control pill, including:

•  The early side effects: headaches, heavier bleeding, and frustration
•  What made me stick with it despite a rough start 
•  The moment I realized my perimenopause anxiety and depression symptoms improved
•  Why this option can be life-changing for some women—but not all 

Beyond medication, I share what’s helping me feel more balanced day-to-day:

•  Supplements like magnesium, vitamin D, iron, fish oil, and B complex
•  Nutrition habits like adding berries for fiber and antioxidants
•  Returning to weight training for hormone and mental health support

We also talk about how to advocate for yourself:

•  How to communicate effectively with your OB-GYN or healthcare provider
•  Why tracking symptoms is critical for diagnosis and treatment 
•  What to do when your first treatment plan doesn’t work 

If you’re struggling with perimenopause, PMS, hormonal mood swings, anxiety, or depression, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to accept feeling bad half the month.
