Premenstrual Syndrome<\/a>\u00a0(PMS<\/a>) used to be called Premenstrual Tension (PMT) and is a collection of approximately 150 symptoms that women have once a month just prior to having her menstrual flow of blood. The symptoms may be predictable each month but may vary in intensity. The symptoms usually start when the ova (egg) are released and stop shortly after the blood flows. A small percentage of women who have\u00a0PMS<\/a>\u00a0have the symptoms so severely that they are said to have premenstrual dysphoric disorder which is a severe form of PMS. Women who have PMS have a great deal of difficulties with menses.<\/p>\n

There are more than 150 different symptoms associated with PMS but the main ones are abdominal\u00a0bloating<\/a>, abdominal cramping,\u00a0acne<\/a>, stress or anxiety,\u00a0aggression<\/a>,\u00a0insomnia<\/a>, or trouble staying asleep, joint or\u00a0muscle pain<\/a>,\u00a0headaches<\/a>\u00a0even\u00a0migraines<\/a>, crying spells, unpredictable bursts of\u00a0anger<\/a>, extreme\u00a0mood swings<\/a>. The onset of PMS symptoms may also make other medical conditions worse including skin disorders, respiratory problems,\u00a0allergies<\/a>, infections, or eye problems such as bulbar disturbances,\u00a0conjunctivitis<\/a>.<\/p>\n
