What is PMS?

PMS is a combination of any of around 150 recognised symptoms experienced in the run up to a menstrual period, including:

·    Irritability
·    Mood swings
·    Breast tenderness
·    Bloating
·    Menstrual cramps

Although these are the most common, they are by no means the only symptoms experienced on a regular basis by many women of menstruating age. They are mainly caused by the changes in hormone levels necessary to produce a menstrual bleed (period), although they can be made worse by deficiencies of nutrients such as B vitamins and magnesium.
