Well, there’s a whole list of them and they vary for different women. Lots of women are depressed or worried, anxious, irritable, angry. They have difficulty with sleeping, physical cravings, being tired, having bloating, insomnia and I guess some sleep problems and an awful lot of women feel paranoid, oversensitive, they may feel clumsier, they may feel fuzzy.
