General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, thanks for your question.

All of those symptoms are typical of Post-mentrsual syndrome, a constellation of symptoms ranging from fatigue, sore breasts, joint pain to anxiety and depression occurring within two weeks from the last day of a period flow.

This is entirely normal and you would get relief by employing the following.

1. Take over-the-counter pain medications and period drugs such as midol
2. Take antianxiety medications
3. Schedule an exercise plan
4. Go for a relaxing massage
5. Healthy diet rich in whole grains, legumes such as beans, fruits, and vegetables.
6. If the psychological symptoms are very severe, please visit a psychologist whose job is to help you get through psychological symptoms.

You would be alright.

I hope I have answered your question.

Best wishes.
