Absolutely.. Many women suffer from the same issue called premenstrual dysphoric syndrome and can be treated with anti-depressant medications such as zoloft for the week or so before menses starts. You can also consider going on a continuous form of birth control pills that allow you to have only one or two periods a year, thus limiting the amount of times you experience the mood swings.
