PMS stands for premenstrual syndrome: a set of temporary symptoms that appear a few days before the arrival of your period. They only last a few days and are completely natural.

Here are the most frequent clues to recognize PMS:

  • A changing mood: you go from one state to another quickly

  • Breast tenderness

  • Stomach aches

  • Menstrual cramps

 You can experience one or more of these, and there are many others.

The symptoms and their intensity depend on each person. Writing down your observations can be a good way to get to know your body, tame its reactions, and better identify them later.

 

However, if you feel that these symptoms are preventing you from doing daily activities or are affecting you a lot, it is important to talk to a health professional.
