I agree with Boobs_for_all, take it slow and easy with PM. No more than 500 mg per day!
Start it a day or two after the final day of your menses, and take it till ovulation. If you're not sure when you ovulate yet have a normal length cycle (28-30 days), then a week or until day 13 (from the beginning of the new cycle) should be fine. If you experience any spotting then definitely stop it cold turkey until the next cycle.
When I first started PM I took it from day 1, but that gave me excessive discharge and I very easily spotted. I now take it two days after the last day of my 6 day long menses (so day 8) until day 15, and have yet to encounter any negative side effects.
