What is Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) ?

PMS is a common condition that many individuals experience in the days or weeks leading up to their menstrual period. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe and often include mood swings, irritability, fatigue, and physical discomfort like bloating or cramps.

While PMS is a normal part of the menstrual cycle, it can become overwhelming and affect your daily life, work, or relationships. Hormonal fluctuations during the cycle can impact mood, energy levels, and overall well-being. With the right support, you can learn to manage symptoms effectively and regain emotional stability.
