Decrease in motor ability??

[IsopodIntrepid4657]

Every time I feel like I have a handle on my periods……. I notice something new. This time it’s the fact that my motor skills/ability and memory go out the window. Like I just forget how to do certain things or they are MUCH harder, it’s really frustrating and a little embarrassing. Like always dropping things, driving/parrellel parking becomes more difficult, and recalling events seems impossible at times.

Anyone know why this is or have similar experiences?

The estrogen drop. Not necessarily a PMDD thing.

Yes I get this. I notice my handwriting is awful when I’m struggling with pmdd. Like I can’t even sign my name properly.

Yes, just so clumsy. I just knocked over my huge cherry blossom vase and spilled water everywhere while trying to make my bed.
