: You assumed everybody would understand what you mean by PMS and that is not going to help you. It is better to specify what you have or state if you mean premenstrual syndrome. Symptomatic relief is what you ought to do if it is premenstrual syndrome, it is important to reduce stress and rest.

Question 9

how is pms distinguished from other conditions?

Accepted Answer

Timing: This could be a long talk.  Suffice it to say that the characteristic physical and emotional symptoms of PMS occur only in the luteal phase of a woman's cycle.  There should be a symptom free period around days 4 - 12.  This would distinguish PMS from other physical and psychiatric ailments that may have similar symptoms.

Question 10

how to avoid pms?

Accepted Answer

Prevention: Try to stay hydrated and eat foods low in sodium to prevent bloating associated with pms. You could also eat foods that are rich in vitamin b6 (bananas and nuts) which helps to modulate hormones related to pms. Finally, exercise and stay active. Endorphins are released during physical activity which can also help relieve your symptoms when you do experience pms.
