An estimated 90% of all women of reproductive age will suffer from PMS at some point in their lives. The most common symptoms of PMS include:

- Abdominal bloating
- Sore breasts
- Acne
- Food cravings
- Headache
- Constipation
- Stomach discomfort
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Mood swings
- Depression
- Lack of concentration
- Change in sex drive

In most women PMS symptoms start near the middle of the cycle with their most intense symptoms occurring in the days before their period starts. Many women will experience a relief of symptoms once their period begins.

PMS symptoms can be reduced with a change in diet, exercise, and stress management. For example, reducing your intake of salt will minimize bloating and weight gain.

The staff at Total Woman Care can help you address your symptoms and provide you with a specific treatment plan to help meet your unique needs.
