I have had moderate PMS most of my adult life, but aside from a few months on Xanax, had not used meds for it. Recently started 37.5 mg of Effexor XR and not only did I not notice the emotional PMS onset, I didn't even have cramps. Cant say for certain that they are related, but this month for me was lots easier. I do know that AD's are used for chronic pain sufferers for both the psych effects and the lessening of chronic pain.
I can say that during my time on Prozac or Paxil I still had the emotional PMS symptoms.
