I've been reading up on things that influence sleep, and menstruation can have a massive effect on sleep quality (for brain chemical reasons as well as discomfort, etc). Anything you can do to improve sleep quality will probably help you feel better. Sunshine & exercise during the day, dimming the lights at night, and good qual nutrition. If you're getting blood tests done, get your Vit D checked, and think about adding in a magnesium supplement (many people are deficient) which has the added bonus of reducing cramps & leg restlessness.
