Premenstrual Syndrome

What you can do about PMS or PMDD

Premenstrual syndrome, PMS (sometimes called premenstrual tension, PMT), is a condition that can occur before and during your period. It can involve a number of symptoms that can be mild or more difficult to manage. When the symptoms are very severe it can be classified as premenstrual dysmorphic disorder, PMDD.

Because PMS can occur every menstrual cycle, it can really help to know how to manage the symptoms.
