Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) refers to a series of symptoms prior to beginning of menstrual period. These symptoms include “mentally depressed status”, “easy to get angry”, “tense breasts with pain”, “vomit”, “diarrhea” and so forth. Most starts from a week or two weeks prior to menstrual period and disappears upon beginning of menstrual period. Those who with light symptoms may be able to endure but those who with severe symptoms may have effects in business and/or daily life. And recurrence of labial and/or genital herpes is found in many cases.

In TCM it is roughly classified into three:

Type A (Excess) Liver Depression Qi Stagnation
It is caused by stagnation of Qi due to mental stress. It is identified with symptoms such as mental depression, easy to get angry, abdominal swelling, tense breasts with pain, irregular menstrual period cycle and so forth before or after menstrual period.

Type B (Deficiency) Spleen and Stomach Weakness
Water dampness (moisture unnecessary to the body) is caused due to either weak digestive system to begin with or poor eating habits and/or daily life style causing damage to the digestive system thus damaging the function of Spleen. Therefore symptoms mainly on digestive system appear. It is identified with symptoms such as feeling of fullness at stomach, soft stool, diarrhea, sense of fatigue, edema and so forth before or after menstrual period.

Type C (Deficiency) Kidney Yin Deficiency
It is generated either by insufficient “Kidney Yin” due to original physical constitution of “Kidney Qi Deficiency” or damaged “Essence Blood” due to excess sexual intercourse. It is identified with symptoms such as being muddleheaded, sense of exhaustion, ear ringing, having trouble to getting sleep, many dreams, glow, hot flash, sluggishness in back and knees and so forth before or after menstrual period.

Though it was roughly classified into three types, few people will fit just like these. In many cases different types are overlapped with these or new symptoms are found based on these.
