These problems were very much alleviated by taking Vitex (Agnus
Castus or Chasteberry)

And there is something to be said for Wild Yam, particularly for PMS. I
never had much PMS problems before I started having children.  I started on
Wild Yam to help prevent miscarriage since I had had two. it seems to help a
lot with PMS if i take one daily one week prior to menstruation. Then I
would quit taking it sometime during that week.

Post-twins right now, menstrual flow is unbelievable. I swear I am
hemorrhaging each month, more than I ever remember. Maybe time for wild yam
as I didn't bleed like this when taking it.
