Truth: it is possible and necessary to fight this so-called disease. If you make some effort, you can defeat him and stop suffering yourself and spoil life around you with an enviable regularity.
Causes of the appearance of PMS.
PMS is a consequence of the reduced content of the female hormone estrogen before the "critical days". The manifestation of this syndrome can intensify if you suffer from chronic diseases of the nervous and genitourinary systems.
The tendency to depression, inflammation of the internal organs, neuroses, thyroid problems and constant stress are the main causes of PMS.
Women who try to avoid stress, struggle with depression and monitor their health, are much less likely to fall into the slavery of hormones.
