PMS Destigmatized! Is It Really A Hormone Problem?

 WHAT IS PMS? 

For a lot of women, the time before menstruation may be filled with intense physical and emotional discomfort initiated by chemical-hormonal changes in the body. However, the cause of this condition deserves further investigation.

PreMenstrual Syndrome (PMS) symptoms can be dreadfully disturbing. But, they can be balanced and corrected. In truth, an expert master herbalist, with a long established practice, apprenticed in multiple modalities of herbology including Chinese medicine, can promptly remedy PMS and impact the basic causation, naturally. It is reasonable to expect initial relief within 2 hours unless the individual has a long term illness. With chronic situations, a realistic expectation would be 45-90 days.

PMS Imbalances fall into three categories:

1. Mild Menstrual symptoms – symptoms do not interfere with daily activities.
2. Moderate Premenstrual symptoms – symptoms obviously disrupt daily function.
3. Severe Premenstrual Imbalance – extreme symptoms which interrupt
   many activities of daily living (ADL).
