How to deal with PMS?

Again, it’s that time of the month! While not every woman gets premenstrual syndrome - the cramping, bloating, and general crabbiness that can strike around period time—about 85% of women report having at least one symptom each month. And even though there’s no real "cure" for PMS, many treatments and lifestyle changes are available to help you cut down on the discomfort. Read on to find out how.

1. Work on your diet - A salt-heavy diet can cause bloating, caffeine can aggravate irritability or anxiety, alcohol may worsen depression, and too much sugar can destabilize your blood sugar and mood. Try to eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains the week before your period.

2. Exercise more - It is recommended to have half hour to forty five minutes of moderately intense exercise e.g cardio and two muscle strengthening sessions. Also, the endorphin rush is a great cure for improving  bad mood swings.

3. Check for herbal remedies - Herbal infusions are known to have various positive effects. Try infusions especially using ginger for its anti-inflammatory properties. You can also include Lavender and Rosemary for its calming and soothing properties.

4. Focus on your stress - First of all, it is important that you get adequate rest and plenty of sleep. Try to get as much sleep as you think you need so that sleep deprivation doesn’t ratchet up symptoms. Then make a conscious effort to reduce your stress level. You can try deep breathing, massage, meditation, or yoga, which can soothe the mind and body.


5. Take pain relievers - For women who have PMS-related pain such as cramping, breast tenderness, backaches, or headaches find relief consuming nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain relievers (NSAIDs) widely manufactured by pharmaceuticals throughout the UK and globally. These include ibuprofen (Advil and similar drugs) and naproxen (Aleve). Or you can try over-the-counter remedies specifically aimed at PMS like Pamprin and Midol. These often combine some sort of pain reliever with caffeine.
