When it is her time of the month, she don't want me around, she can't kiss me, she can't even say I love you, without forcing it out. I understand the PMS / PMDD is uncontrolable. What are t hings I can do to help ride it out. For her? and For Me?

Pms is hard to deal with because women have a hard time understanding themselves why they feel the way they feel. It is best to give her some space and let her go through her emotions on her own. Honestly nothing you do will help .

Honey, don't sweat it! When a girl goes through PMS/PMDD, she is in a lot of pain. The pain that she experiences can't really be explained to you either. Try to ask if she needs any help with anything, like the dinner, or maybe you could give her a back rub. She may not be in the romantic mood. Just try to give her her space, but make sure to remind her that you are there for her. After its over, the one, freshest thing in her mind will be that you helped her out! She will remember how sweet and gentle you were with her, and maybe she will try to do something to repay you! Yes, PMS is uncontrollable. Its because, the pain can not be 'takin care of'. Yes, she can take Advil or whatever, but its still there, and she starts to feel dirty, and sad, etc. Just try to put your self in her place and ride it out with her. Put on that shirt she once complimented, give her a bubble bath, snuggle while watching her favorite show. Good Luck!

Some women just have really extreme PMS but it is controllable. A friend of mine was put on Paxil for this, low dosage, and it helped her a lot. Maybe your GF should see her doctor and see if anything else can be done.
Also, over the counter things like Midol do help out with the physical things like cramps and bloating.
Personally, when I am PMS-ing I feel fat, bloated, crabby, a little crampy, very short-tempered, and I can cry at the dumbest things. It's not too severe, but all I'd like my BF to do is be a little more patient with me at this time and realize it's not him and he shouldn't take it personally. So, try to let things that you might normally fight about and let them roll off your shoulder a little easier than you might if you know it wasn't "that time".
Kudos to you for being concerned enough to actually ask what you can do to help her through this time.

i have the same problem. i suffer from pmdd and i take it out on my partner also, but i always feel terrible about it. there is a birth control pill available now called Yaz that is supposedly the only birth control avaliable that controls the symptoms of pmdd. i have been on it 3 months now and my partner and i can see a huge difference. it also gives you shorter/lighter periods. perhaps this would be something to look in to or suggest. good luck to ya.

I would say just don't be around her for the time of the month, or offer her some midol. But, she may find that offensive, just let her do her own thing and soon she will miss you. What is PMDD?

Hormones can cause us women to do some very weird things. A lot we don't even realize we are doing.
Don't point out her short falls during this time and don't force it out of her. Realize that this is her thing.. you can't battle the estrogen..
Let it be and instead be a good boyfriend that time of month and be understanding.
Good Luck

You need to respect her wishes (I had extreme problems and my husband could sometimes be insensitive, and come to find out I needed a hysterectomy) Run her a hot shower that will sometimes help give her some pamprin. Cook for her and bring it to her, for me if I was in a comfy recliner it hurt less. She should probley go see her OB/GYN because mine told me I should have said something sooner instead of suffering. Good Luck

just respect her space and understand that what she's going through has nothing to do with you.. I'd say if anything buy her a nice card once a month around that time to show her that you understand and that you still love her :) :) :)
