The premenstrual experience differs from woman to woman. Some women may develop more physical symptoms, while others may develop more emotional symptoms.*
As a woman, there are a few extra hurdles in finding comfort in your daily life. One of these hurdles is premenstrual discomfort, the discomfort you feel as the time approaches for you to have your period. Premenstrual Syndrome (commonly referred to as PMS) is a combination of physical and emotional symptoms many women experience after ovulation through to before their period. Experts theorize that this is due to the falling estrogen and testosterone levels in the body dramatically falling during this point in a woman's cycle if she is not pregnant.
The premenstrual experience differs from woman to woman. Some women may develop more physical symptoms, such as bloating or gassiness, while others may develop more emotional symptoms, such as sadness. Often, it is a combination of both.1
Estrogen is a sex hormone, found in both men and women, that is also necessary for maintaining a woman's sexual and reproductive health. The levels of estrogen in the body, particularly in women, fluctuate, and especially throughout her menstrual cycle. In older women, estrogen levels decrease significantly. The development of secondary sexual characteristics in women (breasts, widened hips, etc) are due to fluctuations in estrogen levels. Further, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause are all possible due to this hormone.
Your ovaries make most of a woman's estrogen during her reproductive years. Once it is released, estrogen travels through the body via the bloodstream to whichever part of the body needs to be put to action. There estrogen binds to a protein called an estrogen receptor and the body gets the intended process going. There are estrogen receptors all over the body!2 3
Estrogen levels rise and fall throughout a woman's life and throughout her monthly menstrual cycle, for example, rising in puberty and declining as she approaches menopause. Estrogen levels also rise during ovulation to prepare a woman's body for pregnancy, and dips during her period when there is no resulting pregnancy. Regularly high or low levels may signal an underlying condition requiring your provider's attention.2
There are a few healthy habits that can encourage healthy and balanced estrogen levels.2

Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus) extract (4:1)
Chasteberry
Chasteberry is used widely to treat infertility and for relief of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms. Laboratory analysis has shown that chasteberry contains hormonal precursors that can prompt hormone changes within the body by activating those receptors. Various studies have found chasteberry to be effective in reducing breast pain and other PMS symptoms, but not for symptoms of menopause. Because chasteberry has phytoestrogenic properties, patients with hormone-sensitive cancers should consult their physicians before using it. https://www.mskcc.org/cancer-care/integrative-medicine/herbs/chasteberry |
