PMS-FAST
Approximately 75-80% of women experience at least one symptom of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), which can be a constellation of behavioural changes, physical changes, and/or emotional changes a few days before menstruation begins. PMS symptoms may include fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, depression, irritability, mood swings, muscle tension/cramping, headache, mastalgia (breast pain), sensitivity to cold, acne, bloating, and abdominal pain. Symptoms that interfere with daily activities or cause distress may indicate that someone has Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), which is a more severe form of PMS.
Chasteberry - 100mg
Vitex is one of the herbs for PMS. Other names include: chasteberry, chaste tree berry, and vitex agnus-castus. It comes from a shrub-like tree native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia. The fruit (berry) of this tree has traditionally been used for addressing complaints related to female hormones and menstruation. Vitex itself is not a hormone, nor does it contain any hormones. The therapeutic effects of vitex are due to the indirect effects it has on different hormones and mood chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the body.
Several studies have validated the amazing effects of the extract. In clinical trials for the treatment of PMS, chasteberry reduced some symptoms, especially breast pain or tenderness, oedema, constipation, irritability, depressed mood, anger, and headache. The German Commission E has approved the use of Chaste Tree extract for the treatment of PMS. It is widely used in Germany and in Europe.
Black Cohosh - 100mg
More than two centuries ago, Native Americans discovered that the root of the black cohosh plant helped relieve menstrual cramps and menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, irritability, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. Today, people use black cohosh for these same reasons. This plant is very anti-inflammatory and wonderful at reducing spasm in both the smooth muscles, but also the skeletal muscles associated with menstrual cramping pain that radiates to the lower back and down the thighs. It is best used a few days prior to the onset of menstruation and through menstruation, if necessary.
In a recent study, 93% of women who took chasteberry supplements over three consecutive months reported a significant improvement in PMS symptoms. Pelvic discomfort, irritability, premenstrual acne, and food cravings all improved notably.
Red Raspberry Leaf - 100mg
Red Raspberry Leaf has been used traditionally to stabilize irregular periods, stop cramps, and help with nausea and mood swings.
Due to its astringent nature and ability to strengthen smooth tissues, Red Raspberry Leaf has been studied to benefit uterine health. It helps relieve PMS symptoms and can help make your periods less painful. Raspberry leaves contain a plant compound called "fragarine," which helps tone and tighten muscles in the pelvic area and, therefore, might reduce the menstrual cramping caused by the spasms of these muscles. It has been used to reduce menstrual cramps for centuries. Studies have shown that raspberry leaf can act as a relaxant in the gastrointestinal tract. This can result in reduced cramping during menstruation.
Peony - 50mg
Peony is a hormone modulator, regulating signals between the brain and the ovaries to encourage healthy menstrual cycles. This herb also has anti-inflammatory, spasmolytic, and analgesic properties - meaning peony is beneficial in reducing PMS related symptoms such as menstrual cramping and breast tenderness.
Magnesium Biglycinate - 50mg
Magnesium and premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
According to a recent literature review, magnesium is an evidence-based treatment for PMS. Some researchers propose that it may work by calming the nervous system and by "normalizing the actions of different hormones on the central nervous system".
Magnesium may help to prevent period pain
Taken daily, magnesium may prevent dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps) in some people. It works by relaxing the smooth muscle of the uterus and by reducing the prostaglandins that cause period pain.
Magnesium promotes healthy oestrogen clearance
By supporting the COMT enzyme (catechol-o-methyltransferase) in the liver, magnesium promotes the healthy excretion of oestrogen. This may reduce the risk of the oestrogen excess conditions (such as fibroids) associated with low COMT function.
Magnesium can reduce stress
Magnesium calms the nervous system and reduces the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal. The result is less anxiety, less cortisol, and a better capacity to cope with stress. Reduced stress can, in turn, have positive effects on your menstrual cycle and health.
