Want PMS Relief ?

Here is my best advice on how to get PMS relief. PMS is one of the most important womens health issues.

Premenstrual syndrome is a syndrome that affects about 20 to 90 percent of all women who are still menstruating. PMS symptoms will vary from month to month. This makes me think that PMS symptoms are linked to diet, physical fitness and exercise and the stress level of each individual.

PMS Symptoms

• headaches
• body aches
• tender breasts
• abdominal bloating
• weight gain
• abdominal cramping
• fatigue
• irritability
• anxiety
• depression
• moodiness

These PMS symptoms usually occur up to a week before each monthly period starts. Some women use this as their sign that their monthly period is coming soon. Some of these symptoms are very similar to those of Menopause.

Some women do not experience any symptoms each month. They are the ‘lucky ones’.

For those that do, these symptoms are very real and sometimes can be quite debilitating for a day or so.

If you think you need PMS relief, here are some tips for getting control of it so you can feel better.

• for several months keep track of which pms symptoms you have. How severe are they? Record your pms symptoms each day on a calendar. On the calendar, note what day your period is due to start, and the day symptoms first appear.

Over a few months you will start to see a pattern to your PMS symptomns.

There are other conditions that share similar symptoms with Premenstrual Syndrome.

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Menopause
• Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and Leaky Gut
• Endocrine ( metabolic )System could be out of balance

The Endocrine system or the glandular system consists of these glands:

• pituitary
• thyroid
• parathryoid
• adrenals
• pineal
• thymus

These glands must all work together in a balanced way.

Causes of PMS

The normal estrogen level for women changes at the start of a period where it is higher and at the end of the cycle it is lower.

However, hormone changes occur regularly in women of all ages.

For women that suffer from Premenstrual Syndrome, estrogen levels stay high during the entire menstrual cycle producing many of the above listed symptoms.

PMS Treatment

• Eliminating coffee/caffeine from your diet...Many women experience extremely tender breasts from caffeine and alcohol
• Eliminate alcohol from your diet
• Stay away from Sugar
• Get plenty of rest
• Eat lots of fresh vegetables
• Drink lots of fresh water
• use nutritional supplements that have a proven history to help with this important womens health issue.

The Importance of Exercise

Exercise helps release endorphins which are natural pain relievers.

Exercise will help you feel less bloated and keep you feeling fit.

Physical fitness also helps elevate your mood.

Making these changes in your daily routine is really worth while, in order to get relief for these truly uncomfortable pms symptoms.

Your family will appreciate this too!

These suggestions for PMS relief are also good for Candida relief. Very often PMS and Candida go hand in hand. By eliminating Candida, you can find relief for PMS symptoms at the same time.
