So their mood drops, they become more anxious, they can become more irritable.

And then their period comes and they feel fine.

But again, it's the same cause.

It's a hormonal change.

And that's been normalized.

Like for women, we're told, oh, well, you will feel a bit crap a few days before your periods.

But when I see women...

Like that I'll often give them some hormones, usually just some progesterone for a few days.

And then they feel the same every day of the month, which is incredibly important.

Because if you're getting a symptom on those days where you've got a big, I don't know, assignment at work or you're at school and you're doing a big exam or, you know, like you wouldn't say to a man, oh, three days a month, you're just going to feel a bit shit and you might not go to the gym and you won't be able to sleep and you'll argue with your partner.

Men would go, what?

Oh, is there a treatment?

Can I do anything?

Yeah, of course it would.

But we've got a solution.

It's just can't be accessed.

That's what's really frustrating.

So, yeah, well, it's great.

It's brilliant.
