What can you tell me about Vitamin B6 for PMS? I've read that it is helpful for water retention because B6 acts like a natural diuretic. Is it helpful in other ways? Does it help with irritability and tension?

I do know that women who take the contraceptive pill may be deficient in B6 as well as folic acid so its good to supplement with it in that case. And higher doses have been found to help anxiety in some cases
