Pharmacist's advice

For the most effective relief of PMS symptoms, taking preparations based on chasteberry (Vitex), magnesium, and vitamin B6 is recommended. Chasteberry naturally balances estrogen and progesterone levels, reducing breast tenderness and mood swings. It is important to note that these herbal supplements require continuity, so they need to be taken daily throughout the entire cycle, not just when symptoms begin. In addition, reducing the intake of salt and caffeine a week before the cycle can significantly reduce fluid retention and the feeling of bloating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can teas really help with PMS?
Yes, warm herbal teas like chamomile, lemon balm, or St. John's wort have a calming effect on the nervous system, reduce stress, and mildly relax the muscles, bringing quick relief.

2. How long should I use supplements to notice a change?
Given that natural preparations work to establish hormonal balance, the first significant changes in reducing PMS symptoms are usually noticed after 2 to 3 months of regular use.
