im pretty sure i have a hormonal imbalance because i dont have a period every month. i sometimes go months without them and i also snap and get very grumpy with people alot. doesnt take much to piss me off and i have crazy mood swings and get depressed alot. what can i do to make things better?
the only time i have my period on time is if im on BC and i cant take birth control because my high blood pressure ect my doc says i shouldnt plus i dont really want 2. and im married and scared since i dont have my periods i cant have a baby ect.

It would depend on the kind of hormone imbalance one has after it has been established thru various tests. Some kinds of hormone imbalances such as with the thyroid require very specific treatment. I would recommend asking your doctor to test you for different hormone imbalances to see what they think and then ask them about if there are any herbal things that are safe for you to take because of your history with high blood pressure when being on the pill.

It sounds like you might have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. The birth control is what you need, 'cause it balances out your hormones. If you can't take that, you should talk to a doctor about if there's something else they can do for you (talk to a different doctor if yours is uncooperative -- some of them can be kind of ignorant about PCOS). You can still have a baby, probably, but it's harder and usually takes more help from your gyno.

YOU CAN TRY GOING TO A HOLISTIC DOCTOR AND GETTING HORMONE CREAMS. ONE IS CALLED PROGEST, THAT IS THE ONE I KNOW OF BUT I AM SURE THERE ARE OTHERS. MAYBE THAT DOCTOR WILL GIVE YOU OTHER OPTIONS THAT WILL WORK FOR YOU WITH A DIFFERENT APPROACH THEN YOUR REGULAR DOC.
