PMT management
I am looking for advice on managing PMT. I’m 39 and have always had this condition, but it has become worse since the birth of my second child two years ago. As well as all the physical symptoms, I feel so negative I could cry at the drop of a hat. Could this be the start of the menopause? I don’t want to take hormone drugs at this stage.
What you are suffering from is perimenopause - hormonal changes which can occur up to 15 years before the onset of menopause proper. Symptoms may include sudden weight gain, erratic and painful periods, mood swings, hot flushes and insomnia making it all the more incredulous that most of us this age have never even heard of this condition.
Complex Female is an alcohol-free, organic herbal tincture from the American range, Nature’s Answer, which will help relieve these symptoms. It includes Red Raspberry, which is excellent for menstrual cramps; Black Cohosh to regularise hormones and Cayenne (Capsicum), which will trigger the release of feel-good endorphins in the brain to improve your mood and beat the PMT blues.
