Men seem to suffer from this just as much as women.

Can anyone identify with any of these symptoms?

Physical symptoms of PMT include:

Food and alcohol cravings.
Headaches.
Skin problems.
Swollen joints, particularly ankles.
Water retention.
Weakness.
Weight gain.


Psychological symptoms of PMT include:

Decreased sex drive.
Depression.
Insomnia.
Irritability.
Poor concentration.
Weepiness.

Probably a mixture of swollen joints and weight gain, Ann

I posted the physical and psychological symptoms of PMT. Now I have been reported for doing that, my symptom would be weepiness :-( :-( :-(

What was the purpose of your thread, John.....just asking.

JohnLovesHorlicks

JohnLovesHorlicks Report 1 Feb 2013 23:03

It was in answer to huge public demand, SueM. I listed symptoms and suggested that men also suffered with them to some extent. Not meant to be a serious thread, not meant to upset anybody. But........

Of course, if anybody is upset, the thread now will probably remain till Monday morning as I can do absolutely nothing to remove it.

Eeyore :-D :-D

Why do men insist that it is PMT and not PWT? Pre Womenstrual Tension.

Does that not suggest that we do all suffer from the symptoms that have been removed at a stroke tonight? I know I have had almost all of them today :-(

Missed them, in the post and in life, I never suffered from PMT :-D

Did wonder if "strewal tension" might be something to do with engineering or similar... tightening massive steel screws or something ?

Rose. The OP was disgusting and inflammatory. Think the poster has a massive steel screw missing somewhere :-0 :-0

I will tell the truth even when it goes against me. Oh, that everybody would be as modest as me about their abilities. Some of us have a lot to be modest about :-(
