PMS
Symptoms
by: Elizabeth Morgan
The majority of women
experience premenstrual syndrome or PMS at some point during their
lives. PMS is an umbrella term used to describe a large number of
symptoms women may experience during the premenstrual part of their
monthly cycles. While all women undergo monthly hormonal changes
that can cause various premenstrual symptoms, some women do not
experience these symptoms. In women who experience symptoms, they
can range from mild to severe enough to interfere with normal daily
activities. Many women may have PMS symptoms that vary greatly in
intensity and duration from one month to the next. Stress worsens
PMS symptoms in many women.
A woman with PMS may undergo mood swings or become anxious or
depressed. Irritability or decreased concentration may also occur.
Sometimes, these symptoms may become severe enough to need medical
attention and medication. Emotional symptoms also contribute to
certain behaviors, such as aggression or withdrawal from normal
social interaction with people one is close to.
Physical symptoms can also occur and may vary greatly in severity.
Breast tenderness, bloating, and weight gain are common. Increased
pain sensitivity and specific hormonal changes may lead to breast
tenderness, abdominal cramps, backaches, headaches, migraines, and
joint or muscle pain. There may be changes in sleep and bowel
patterns. Fatigue and decreased sexual desire may also be reported.
Certain food cravings may lead to overeating.
An extreme form of PMS is called premenstrual dysphoric disorder, or
PMDD. A woman may feel like she has lost control over her life or
suffer from a sense of hopelessness or guilt. These negative
feelings may lead to a complete withdrawal from friends and family
and may even result in an inability to cope with one�s work
routine. Women with PMDD should seek medical attention to alleviate
their symptoms.
