I'm almost 40 and I get severe PMS when I get really upset and cry. Do some people with autism have more severe PMS than neurotypicals?

I'm doing OK today. I might try a warm bath the next time I have PMS.Have you tried a warm bath or jacuzzi? Would a heating pad help? Great post, it's important to talk about this, men don't quite understand how bad the cramping is.
I used to get it very severe, heavy bleeding and cramps. Going vegan helped me so much.I'm almost 40 and I get severe PMS when I get really upset and cry. Do some people with autism have more severe PMS than neurotypicals?
I'm another woman with endometriosis, I believe that autoimmune disorders and endocrine disorders are common in autism.I had really bad PMS when I had periods but it was because of endometriosis.
I think PMS is more common than people think, and so are endometriosis and PCOS but they often go undiagnosed.
If it continues to be a really serious problem, definitely mention it to your gynecologist, if you haven’t already.
Yes I felt like i would die each time from the pain.Was reading that women on the spectrum can experience worse PMS symptoms or PMDD as it’s called, I definitely relate to this because during my time of the month I become very depressed and all my coping mechanisms go out the window. Does anyone here experience extreme PMS?
