About Premenstrual Syndrome

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is not a surgical procedure but a common cyclic condition managed by Obstetrics and Gynaecologists. It encompasses a wide range of physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms that occur in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and resolve shortly after menstruation begins. Management is personalized and focuses on symptom relief, lifestyle modifications, and, when necessary, pharmacological interventions. A comprehensive approach includes accurate diagnosis through symptom tracking, ruling out other conditions, and creating a tailored treatment plan which may involve dietary changes, exercise, stress management, supplements, or prescription medications like SSRIs or hormonal therapies to improve quality of life.
