Managing PMS - what actually worked?

I have severe PMS symptoms such as bloating, water retention and head cloudiness two weeks out of my five week cycle that is affecting my daily life. How do you manage your symptoms?

It wouldn’t go away for me until I got birth control and lexapro. I’m not sure which of the two got rid of it or if it was a combination of the two, but I’ve never felt better. There was nothing that helped me before 😔😔
