I have an IUD, so I don't actually bleed, have cramps, etc. The only thing I notice, is that I feel like crying a little more often, so I guess that's not too bad!

I hate it with a passion but since I want to have kids in the near future I deal with it.

Sometimes my PMS is way worse the week before my period than when I'm actually on it! When I PMS, I get hungry for really terrible foods, feel awful and physically down when I eat them, or just in general. I become super emotional, I don't really have any motivation to do things... it's no good.

I feel the same, even through my periods. I don't even get cramps.

honestly besides the occasional cramp, I don't even notice. it lasts for 3 days goes away for 1 and comes back for 1 more. no big deal. I still have sex, I still masturbate and I don't get bitchy

Wow! My PMS is now also 1 since getting my IUD! But before... well, I'm sure I had my "8" moments.

hormonal birth control made my PMS much better, but overall it's pretty hellish.

I'd say it depends. About every 3 months or so I get a really bad period. That is def. a 10 or worse week! But usually it would be around a 3.

I get some cramping, but nothing major. It use to be worse, but then my doc had me take clomid for 7 months to help me try to get pregnant and my period is so light and short that I don't think my body has a chance to give me PMS.

My PMS makes me hurt so bad and the only thing that really helps is sleep.

It varies month to month but my biggest problem usually is my moodiness.

I'd be about a 25 on that scale. I have PMDD - Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder.

I get terrible PMS the week before as well as the week of. Most of the time my cramps aren't bad and the actual bleeding isn't terrible either. The worst of it is my mood swings and how easily I cry. Everything seems to make me cry, even nothing at all does. I go from being happy to pissed in about 5 seconds over simple stuff. My poor boyfriend!

I'd say a 5 or a 6 most of the time. The main thing with me is moodiness. I get snippy and irritable, but usually I can control it if I realize that it's just my PMS. Rarely, it goes as high as a 10 - during these really bad days, I want to scream at anyone who comes within twenty feet of me! My breasts also get sore during PMS, but I usually only notice it when something brushes or bumps against them - the soreness on its own is maybe a 3 at worst.
