The best way to help your daughter with understanding her hormone fluctuations is to chart them. Develop a 31 day grid with day of the month, and day of the cycle. Day 1 is the first day of her period. Then list a few positive and negative physical, mental and emotional symptoms. If you want to have some fun with it copy the grid onto colored paper, use colorful markers and buy her some stickers to decorate the chart. You may also want to do the same and share the project with your daughter - comparing notes and understanding how you both feel.

You will be amazed at how cyclical and predictable her symptoms will become in relation to where she is in her menstrual cycle. Once she understands this - she will become empowered and be in control of her hormonal health.

Your husband will be forever grateful too.
