PMS Food Cravings
Question: During PMS I get irritability that turns into anger. Also my eating habits get out of control, because I could probably eat anything and everything. I'm usually very structured and controlled about my diet, or I try to be. But I've noticed that premenstrually, I have cravings that are ridiculous. Do you think it's PMS?
