Ayurvedic Treatment for Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) aims in correcting lifestyle and enhance good digestion. Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a condition that affects a woman physically and emotionally and causing changes in behaviour during certain days of the menstrual cycle, generally just before her menses. PMS is a very common condition. Its symptoms affect more than 90% of women of the reproductive age. It is important to get a proper diagnosis and treatment for physical and social well-being. In general, PMS symptoms start around one week before menstruation and typically go away once menstruation begins.
Signs & Symptoms
Signs and symptoms are varied widely in PMS patients. The days affected are also different from person to person. In most cases, it starts at least one week before menstruation and ends with the onset of bleeding.
The symptoms of PMS vary in individuals and months.
The symptoms of PMS include:
- Bloating and belching
- Distension of abdomen
- Abdominal pain
- Soreness in breasts
- Акне
- Craving for food items, especially sweets
- Constipation or diarrhoea
- Головная боль
- Nausea & vomiting
- sensitivity to light or sound
- усталости
- irritability
- changes in sleep patterns or disturbed sleep
- anxiety
- депрессии
- sadness

Причины
The cause of PMS is unknown. But a change in both sex hormones and serotonin levels at the beginning of the menstrual cycle is believed to play a role in PMS by experts.
Патофизиология
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder are triggered by hormonal events ensuing after ovulation. Although evidence for a hormonal abnormality has not been established, the presenting complaints of the condition can be related to the production of progesterone by the ovary. The lowering of serotonin also can give rise to PMS-like symptoms. However, similar to affective disorders, PMS is not completely related to the dysregulation of any neurotransmitters.
Диагноз
There is no single examination or lab test to diagnose the premenstrual syndrome.
Treatments
For many women, lifestyle changes can help relieve PMS symptoms. But in severe cases, medications are needed. The success rate of medications varies among women. Most advised medications for premenstrual syndrome include:
- Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) — which include fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem), paroxetine (Paxil, Pexeva), sertraline (Zoloft) and others — have been successful in reducing mood symptoms.
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen sodium (Aleve) can ease cramping and breast discomfort.
- Diuretics like Spironolactone (Aldactone) can help ease some of the symptoms of PMS.
- Hormonal contraceptives that stop ovulation, can give relief from PMS symptoms.
Прогноз
PMS has a very wide range of prognoses. It gets better mostly in women with a healthy lifestyle.
Осложнения

Regarding pain, Vaatadrute ruja naasti explains that Vaata is the causative dosha of Pain sensation.
