That is PMS. Most women are moody around this time whether they have other symtoms are not. This is just a part of having your period. Just be patient. Now if she is like this all the time then that is not PMS and something else, but if it is a week before-during- or even a week after that could be PMS. A lot of women will start showing grouchiness the week before and a little into the period and some even after they stopped their period.
The best thing men can do is not argue, just say and do things to make them happy and not upset them. Communication is key. I have been amrried for over 14 years and finally both my husband and I are open enough with each other and let each other know when those times come that I am grouchy and I want to be left alone. He is a good man and knows when to back down and not talk too much.

PMS is "Mood Swings" and stands for "Pre Menstrual Syndrom". Basically, you need to learn that most women have this problem, though no fault of their own. If you are close enough to your gf, you will notice a couple of physical signs first. Learn her cycle and when you notice the first signs of swelling breasts and bloated stomach, stay away from her for a few days LOL It's either you keep away for a few days, every month or you will have to learn to live with it. She can't help it, it's her hormones, they go wild. If you do decide to use the ignoring path, she will get really pi**ed with you, each month but you need to explain to her before hand that you need to do this as it may effect your relationship. Also, remember that any nasty things she says to you, she doesn't really mean them but don't ever push for an apology.

You cant win can you? This is a huge problem because a lot of women are not tuned in to their hormonal fluctuations. There is a fine line, however, between hormonal caused behavior and just rude behavior. I would set the standards you yourself are willing to tolerate and enforce them. If she is already accusing you of ignoring her, then she is further attacking you and I dont think that is fair. Try to not let her get into the habit of disrespecting you

Yes, during menstral cycles and usually a week before in women younger than 40.
After that, menapause comes into the picture
and I had an awful time not to be a witch.
Good Luck. We are worth it.

Mood swings are P.M.S. It stands for Pre (before) Menstrual (period) Symptoms.....so she does in fact have P.M.S.......some symptoms are bloating, irritability, mood swings, water retention, feelings of exhaustion...things of that nature.
She just needs to come to terms that her body and mind are having a reaction to her hormones and move beyond it. Having a hormone change or P.M.S. is not a good excuse for poor behavior or the mistreatment of others. Midol and Pamprin are over the counter medications that may help relieve some of the issues, but I wouldn't recommend you mention this while she is having "issues" ....she may take it as an insult. Wait until she is past this and bring it up in a very comfortable situation. Best of luck!!

Well, sorry, but mood swings are just something girls go thru. It 's just one of those things we have to deal with. When I have a moodswing, my husband tries to be extra nice to me. And he constantly tell me that he loves me. Sometimes he'll put his arms around me and say, " I think you need a hug."
Just try to be extra patient, it will pass. I'm sure if you really love this girl, you'll find that she has a lot of good qualities. So, you have to take the good with the bad. Hang in there!

I don't understand what you mean by her missing her PMS????
When she gets like that, take everything she says & does with a grain of salt. Try to be patient. I know it may seem weird to you, but sometimes us women just can't help it. Ask her if there is anything wrong or if there is anything you can do for her. Soon enough, she'll be back to her ol' self.

Plainly Men Suck
That's how I see it! Haha, jk, don't get into any arguments with your girlfriend. Always side with her. Try to be as much of a gentleman as humanely possible. She'll like that. It's only a few days a month...couldn't be that bad right??

PMS includes mood swings. Mood swings do not replace aches and pains or bloating, they are all part of PMS.
However, as a female, I can certainly confirm here and now that if I get the bloating and pain, I get no mood swings. But...If i get mood swings, i tend not to have pain or bloating...
Make of that what you will!

Dunno about the moodswings w/out PMS. But my gyno did suggest a cream (probest) that helps with the moodswings. I haven't tried it yet. She also said that if the cream didn't work that she could perscribe something stronger for me.
