How Can severe Depression During Menstruation Be Treated?
Roughly once a month I will get kind of depressed and irritable for like a week or so. Sometimes it doesn t happen and I m fine the whole month and it s never occurred around the time of my period so i think it s completely unrelated. What could it be?

Welcome to HCM

I went through your details. Usually these will be irritablity and mild depression during the menstrual periods with almost every woman mainly because of the hormonal changes and physical discomforts involved including crams and bleeding issues. These are overcome naturally by the concerned person herself. Other than that, relationship between depression and menstrual period is not established. still for your confirmation you can approach a psychologist for a detailed assessment of the case.
