bad depression at time of month

Hi all. Firstly want to give a bit of background about my situation. I was diagnosed with pcos in 2008. The year before that I was diagnosed with ocd and put on citalopram. Everything was fine until this year. In July, I had my period and a few days after it had ended, I started getting anxious. I went through absolute hell with anxiety and depression. I'm now on sertraline. That has helped but it all goes wrong at my time of the month. My period at end of September, for a week before I came on, I had the week from hell with anxiety and depression. My last period, I had a few tingly anxiety feelings in my head for a few days before but it wasn't anything terrible. I finished that period on Wednesday last week, and on Thursday evening I felt a bit anxious, then from Friday I have felt a heavy depression set in. Crying lots and spending almost all day looking online for help. I am wondering if there is a link between my feelings and pcos? Never explored that possibility before. The sertraline doesn't seem to be helping around my period and now I have been prescribed the combined pill to try and level things out. I'm scared to take it in case it makes things worse. Is there anyone here that could give me advice? Is it normal to suddenly get anxiety years after diagnosis? Is going on the pill the right thing to do? I'll appreciate any reply I get. Sorry for such a long post
