Natural PMS remedies are now freely
available for purchase online, but are all PMS treatements the
same, and do they treat all types of PMS?
We pull apart five of the top PMS remedies, examining just what
they can and can't provide.
Interestingly, all the treatments
here offer relief for dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps or period
pain), which isn't strictly speaking a symptom of PMS, since
normally it occurs in the early days of a period. However,
since pain is such a regular feature of many womens' menstrual
life, the manufacturers haven't bothered to press that fine
distinction.

Femalite |
|

PMS remedy developed by a
clinical psychologist...and it shows. Compared to products like
FemRelieve and Uterol, which are relatively complex blends of homeopathic/chinese
herbal remedies, Femalite contains only 3 ingredients. Admittedly, these
herbs are used effective in treating many PMS-like symptoms, but are
not the first or recommended choice for the treatment of PMS symptoms.
Rather than attempting to treat the root cause of PMS - an hormonal
imbalance, this product seems only to treat symptoms. and relies on Dong
Quai (sold separately by the same company) to provide heavy-duty pain
relief.

Serenitee
|
|

Serenitee's constituent
ingredients make it an acceptable, if basic PMS remedy. In its favor, it
contains Dong Quai, which treats the causes of PMS, but is less able to
tackle PMS at the symptomatic level. It is therefore best suited to
long-term use.

Dong Quai |
|

Dong Quai is the Chinese
name for the herb Chinese Angelica. While available as a constituent
ingredient of other PMS treatments, it is available here as a single
product. Highly effective in relieving PMS by helping regulate the
imbalance of hormones which leads to unpleasant PMS symptoms. Dong Quai's
anti-spasmodic compounds also make it effective as a symptomatic treatment
of menstrual cramps.
