Tips on dealing with PMS naturally

*Discuss your situation with your physician. Work together to develop a comprehensive treatment plan. Follow it!
*If you smoke, quit.
*Practice stress management: many of the symptoms of PMS are unpredictable and emotionally draining. This can be very stressful and can exacerbate your condition.
*Regular exercise may reduce your risk of PMS altogether; exercising once you have symptoms (even though you may not feel like it) will reduce the symptoms you experience for that cycle; reduces stress and tension.
*Take a daily, non-prescription multi-vitamin; discuss any other supplement needs with your physician.
*Be sure to get an adequate daily intake of calcium (1,200 mg/day).
*Eat a well balanced diet; don’t skip meals.
*Reduce intake of caffeine, alcohol, refined sugar, and salt.
*Enlist the support and understanding of friends and loved ones. Ask for understanding and help with tasks in advance to reduce stress and pressure
*Try to get regular, sufficient sleep.
*eat several small meals a day to minimize blood sugar fluctuations.
*limit intake of sweets, salt, alcohol, caffeine, red meats, and other fatty foods.
*increase time for activities that bring enjoyment

*Natural Progesterone cream from day 12-26 of your cycle would balance out the excess estrogen and help any pain or cramping.

I would recommend OTC Naprosyn. I have prescription Naprosyn that I take and I also take Motrin. I also have Darvocet for my really severe cramps. None of these are considered menstrual pills but they kill the pain when I need it. Try eating very tiny amounts of food with the pills to avoid the nausea. Overeating can cause more cramps too. Try herbal teas with no caffeine and heating pads too.

You can try limiting caffein for the week before your cycle begins and take some vitamine B

good luck.

YOU CAN TAKE POSTAN ON THE DAYS LEADING UP TO YOUR PERIOD BUT YOUR GP NEEDS TO PRESCRIBE THEM. NAUSEA IS NORMALLY A RESULT TO FALLING BLOOD SUGARS EAT OFTEN ,TRY TO AVOID BARS OF CHOCOLATE WHICH IS SHORT AC TING AND EAT FOODS LIKE PASTA OR A BAKED POTATOES.HOPE THIS HELPS.
