Interesting here to see that those with PMS may be helped by B6 as:
  those who take the Birth Control Pill deplete their supply of Vitamin B6.
  ========================================================================

Interesting connection, no?
Magnesium is also depleted.  And, low magnesium can also lead to
cramping since magnesium helps relax muscle tissue.
And chocolate has magnesium, among other things.
It's all interrelated.

You have to be careful how you take your B's.  You can't just take
one of them in isolation.
