6 days for me. I keep track of mine with Femometer. Tracking my bbt has helped keep track more accurately. I feel like my whole life is now planned around my damn menstrual cycle. Day 3 is usually my relief day. Zoloft has been a game changer for me tho.

I'm so sorry! I'm there right now! 3 more days till my period. I can't wait lol though my doctor just gave me something to try, and this time isn't nearly as bad as it's been. So hopefully that script works for me lol I really hope you're able to find something that works for you soon.
@noctis right!! i never thought that at some point in my life i would be SO excited to get my period haha. thatās exciting though! i hope it helps ā¤ļø do you mind me asking what script it is?
@indigokat oh I know! I always used to hate my period, but anymore, I'm always excited for it. And it's 10 mg of fluoxetine. Prozac. I originally didn't want to try another psych med, as I've already tried a bunch for my mental health in general. But he said just to take it for 10 days a month, starting 3 days before my symptoms usually start. I just had my appointment, so I started taking it after my symptoms started. Might be a coincidence, but I am a lot less irritable than I usually am at this time. I haven't started any fights with my husband yet! Lol
Man my doctors said my pmdd is severe and Iāve never even learned any of the vocab. I just know how bad it is by how much I wanna eat a pizza š
@Sydie_Bear i highly recommend Clue as a period tracking app! you can see (roughly) when your luteal phase begins - which is also ovulation day; itās roughly 14 days into your cycle so about halfway mark. you can track symptoms and itāll show you any patterns - itās nice to at least have some warning so you can prepare š¹š lol
@indigokat I actually hate clue tbh I just use flo still lol despite the data thing. And I knew about that!! Just not the name for it. Iām rolling along with my just winging it tho. No prep really does anything in my case anyways š
