PMS (Premenstrual syndrome) are physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms that occur during the last week of the luteal phase (1 to 2 weeks before menstruation). The symptoms typically start in the 5 days before menstruation begins and go away within 4 days after bleeding starts.
We can’t make PMS go away entirely, but there are some things we can do to alleviate the symptoms. Exercise, diet (limiting sugar, salt, alcohol, and caffeine), prioritizing sleep, and stress reduction can help. These classes can help too!
