Many women and girls suffer from the same problems every month. A few days before the period, headaches, nausea, painful pressure in the chest appear, feeling and unusual mood swings, etc. After the onset of menstrual bleeding and during menstruation, all these symptoms disappear. But after four weeks it happens again. We are like a surging sea with a full range of emotions.
This is called premenstrual syndrome-pms, which sometimes makes the "days before those days" unbearable. It becomes a disease. Women seem unstable and unreliable, moaning, sick.
The cause of premenstrual syndrome is considered to be a temporary imbalance in the ratio of estrogens and progestogens during the second half of the menstrual cycle. When estrogen remains too strong, a woman experiences PMS. This syndrome is thought to be caused by a disturbance in the regulation of the menstrual cycle by the hypothalamus in the medulla through the "body's major endocrine gland" (pituitary gland).
Eleven complaints are named. PMS is diagnosed when there are more than five complaints and they last for at least two months. These symptoms include:
This complex of physical and mental symptoms always begins 7-10 days before menstruation and resolves on its own on the first or second day of the menstrual cycle. It is believed that this syndrome occurs in 40-50% of women, and in 5-10% of women it is very pronounced.
Often women, girls put up with it.. But the good news is that we can help ourselves.
How can we help ourselves?
There are known substances that are obtained from food, the use of which relieves the symptoms of PMS, and sometimes the symptoms of PMS syndrome disappear altogether when using these substances.
It would be; Magnesium, vit B6, Omega-6 fatty acids.
Sources of omega-6 fatty acids are seeds, nuts, grains, green leafy vegetables, and cold-pressed vegetable oils.
The source of magnesium is grains, semolina, bran, peas, beans, nuts. Most magnesium is found in vegetable products, especially green ones, as it is a component of chlorophyll. An excellent source of magnesium is "Elixir" containing chlorophyll.
The source of Vit B 6 is wheat germ, cereals, spinach, bananas, green beans, carrots, eggs, sunflowers. Most of Vit B6 breaks down during cooking and baking.
Under the action of vitamin B6, the liver is able to break down a sufficient amount of estrogen again, as a result of which the level of estrogen in the woman's body does not become so high.
Magnesium has a relaxing effect on the nervous system and muscles, e.g. It can prevent uterine muscle spasms.
Omega-6 fatty acids are necessary for our body, because so-called prostaglandins are formed from them in the body; the functions of these "tissue hormones" are extremely important. A lack of prostaglandins exacerbates the symptoms of PMS, and eating foods rich in Omega-6 can correct the deficit.
Phytotherapy
These substances affect the regulation of the endocrine gland system.

Autogenic relaxation

EXERCISE and MOVEMENT
Physical activity is an excellent means of spiritual and muscle relaxation. The brain also works positively. During physical exertion, so-called endorphins (analgesics produced by the body) are released. It can better regulate the metabolism of female hormones.
WALKING WITH A FAST STEP
Increasingly popular physical movement. Just walking fast, moving your arms vigorously as if you were holding Nordic poles. With which it is not very convenient to walk everywhere - in the city, in parks, on narrower paths where there are more people. You should walk at least 2-3 times a week for 30-60 minutes. and longer. Such a quick walk has a positive effect on the body and soul, as does jogging with a much greater load.
PURPOSEFULLY CHANGE YOUR EATING HABITS
Reduce the amount of salt consumed - which causes fluid to accumulate in the body.
Also, consume as much as possible (it is even better to give up) white refined sugar, reduce the amount of quickly absorbed sweets, cookies (choose dried fruits and desserts made from plant-based, non-thermally processed products. You can find the recipes here. )
Sugar metabolism requires the body to consume a lot of vitamins, which also increases the release of magnesium. You should eat as much vegetables, fruits and fresh foods as possible. The diet should be constantly supplemented with the recipes in the program. ( see here) One or two days before the "days before the days", you should eat as much raw plant food as possible, drink water and green cocktails.
*If all the above measures do not help, complaints intensify or new symptoms of the disease begin, then it is time to seek help from a gynecologist.
