Hormones? Or what?? Please answer!?

Question

Lately I have been so...moody! One minute I'll be perfectly happy and fine. The next, I'll feel really tired and just...blah. Or the opposite. Or tonight, I was with my boyfriend, and we had a perfectly good night, and then I just started crying. My period isn't supposed to come until next Friday or Saturday, is it just my hormones changing, or really early pms? I'm not taking anything that would cause my hormones to go up and down...and other than that I feel fine. Other than feeling more hungry than normal, and for certain foods. Has anyone ever felt like this before? Is it just my hormones? Pms? Or something else? Any ideas...? I really hate feeling like this. O, and yes, my boyfriend and I are sexually active. Could that even have something to do with it?? No rude answers please.

Answer 1

i got like that before i found out i was pregnant! i have 3 kids now and my horomones are all wacky now. but dont worry about anything it could be a change in diet or stress levels too. if it doesnt improve dont be hesitant to see your doctor, maybe they can help w/some sort of meds. (theres nothing wrong w/you :) all us women go through mood swings for alot of different reasons) best of luck

Answer 2

Well I had the same symptoms as you before I found out one minute everything was fine then next I was in my fiance arms crying my eyes out! I also felt hungry all the time and was craving Pizza. I suggest waiting until your the day your period should be here then take a test if it hasnt arrived try an early bird or clear blue test first thing in the morning for the best results! Good Luck!

Pregnancy Symptoms — Early Signs of Pregnancy
Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding pregnancy symptoms is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience pregnancy symptoms within a week of conception. For other women, symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy symptoms.

Implantation Bleeding:
Implantation bleeding can be one of the earliest pregnancy symptoms. About 6-12 days after conception, the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. Some women will experience spotting as well as some cramping.

Other Explanations: Actual menstruation, altered menstruation, changes in birth control pill, infection, or abrasion from intercourse.

Delay/Difference in Menstruation:
A delayed or missed menstruation is the most common pregnancy symptom leading a woman to test for pregnancy. When you become pregnant, your next period should be missed. Many women can bleed while they are pregnant, but typically the bleeding will be shorter or lighter than a normal period. This symptom is commonly explained by other reasons. If you have been sexually active and have missed a period, it is recommended that you take a test: Find a Free Testing Center or Order my pregnancy test

Other Explanations: Excessive weight gain/loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, ceasing to take the birth control pill, or breast-feeding.

Swollen/Tender Breasts:
Swollen or tender breasts is a pregnancy symptom which may begin as early as 1-2 weeks after conception. Women may notice changes in their breasts; they may be tender to the touch, sore, or swollen.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation (PMS) can also cause your breasts to be swollen or tender.

Fatigue/Tiredness:
Feeling fatigued or more tired is a pregnancy symptom which can also start as early as the first week after conception.

Other Explanations: Stress, exhaustion, depression, common cold or flu, or other illnesses can also leave you feeling tired or fatigued.

Nausea/Morning Sickness:
This well-known pregnancy symptom will often show up between 2-8 weeks after conception. Some women are fortunate to not deal with morning sickness at all, while others will feel nauseous throughout most of their pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Food poisoning, stress, or other stomach disorders can also cause you to feel queasy.

Backaches:
Lower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Impending menstruation, stress, other back problems, and physical or mental strains.

Headaches:
The sudden rise of hormones in your body can cause you to have headaches early in pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, impending menstruation, eye strain, or other ailments can be the source of frequent or chronic headaches.

Frequent Urination:
Around 6-8 weeks after conception, you may find yourself making a few extra trips to the bathroom.

Other Explanations: Urinary tract infection, diabetes, increasing liquid intake, or taking excessive diuretics.

Darkening of Areolas:
If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker.

Other Explanations: Hormonal imbalance unrelated to pregnancy or may be a leftover effect from a previous pregnancy.

Food Cravings:
While you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women will feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy.

Other Explanations: Poor diet, lack of a certain nutrient, stress, depression, or impending menstruation

Answer 4

It's probably hormone related, most likely PMS. However, if your next period is late, I would take a pregnancy test for sure.

Answer 5

Are you pregnant ? It sounds like it? If not then pms can come one week before your period i would think. But just crying for no reason and not feeling good and craving foods sound more like being pregnant to me then pms!!!

Answer 6

could be pregnant or pms.. the early pregnancy signs are the same as pms symtoms

Answer 7
