actually prozac is prescribed this way for PMS and PMDD
heres a link.....'Taking low-dose Prozac (fluoxetine) for a few days during the premenstrual period shows promise in preventing the negative and emotional symptoms associated with PMS (premenstrual syndrome), neuroscientists at the University of Birmingham, England have revealed. PMS affects millions of women globally.'...........

It might be prescribed that way, but it doesn't work that way. What it's banking on is the psychological recovery from that temporary usage, not the physiological recovery that comes from consistent usage.
That being said, ADs carry their own nasty brands of symptoms and I believe they should be avoided at all costs unless very, very necessary.
Get those blood tests done. Check for vitamin deficiencies and see where your body is hormonally.
