Why suffer from PMS?

Dang if this stuff doesn't work. I've been taking a calcium supplement regularly...not twice per day as I'm supposed to, but almost every day at least...and I do feel better. Much, much better.
I missed the webmd article on this last time: Relief for PMS. This includes not only calcium and magnesium, but some reference to vitamin B6 and vitamin E.
I'm less enthusiastic about the herbs, if only because my HMO told me that agnus castus (chaste tree berry) could interfere with hormone-based birth control. (I had looked into it previously as a potential acne treatment.)
So, try the calcium supplement!!!!! You have nothing to lose, calcium is good for you anyway, it's cheap and readily available, yadda yadda...
