Since I'm a male and don't have PMS my treatment for it is 'to get the hell out of Dodge' for a few hours and hope that things will somehow settle down.

How to treat PMS?

Leave the icecream by the door and move away very slowly. No sudden movements.

PMSing women are like the T-rex. If you don't make sudden movements they won't see and attack you.

You know, there are a great many articles about PMS, but no one seems to write about the fact that when menstruation starts for the month, physical symptoms do not go away, they worsen. Women still suffer from bloating, food cravings, irritability, etc., and let's not forget about the pain involved here. Backache, muscle spasms, cramping...

And our men have a habit of avoiding us, rather than being supportive and understanding.

Guys, if you had to spend a week in the pain we experience each and every month, for decades on end, you'd be a little crabby too.

Hence the avoidance issue!

Meh, this irks me to some degree.

Despite the fact that I have cramps, or I'm bloated, I am still responsible for my own actions. Thus, if I tell my boyfriend what I really think of his mother, I shouldn't be able to play the PMS card.

If I'm crabby, it might be the result of PMS but I'm still in control over my actions, if I take my crabbiness out on the men in my life I in no way deserve sympathy just because my boobs are tender.

You have MY sympathy Tweeky Pooh...btw, if you're gonna hurt or abuse me. Please wear a tight, skimpy black leather outfit. I'll be playing "Hurts so good" on the stereo by John Cougar Mellencamp...with a low light...

I am happy for you that you have mastered control over your behavior and hormonal imbalances. As for me, when the hormones start raging, I can tell myself what the problem is all I want, but that doesn't change a thing. Hats off to you Wonder Woman!

As for telling your boy friend what you really think of his mother... Well, honesty in a relationship has nothing to do with PMS; it should be a given, no matter what time of the month it is.

Excuse me, Bronx, but do I know you? Have we ever spoken before? If we have, I don't remember it; so who is it that is boring?
