You can sometimes manage or reduce the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome by making changes in the way you eat, exercise and approach daily life. Try these approaches: Modify your diet Eat smaller, more-frequent meals to reduce bloating and the sensation of fullness. Limit salt and salty foods to reduce bloating and fluid retention. Choose foods high in complex carbohydrates, such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Choose foods rich in calcium. If you can't tolerate dairy products or aren't getting adequate calcium in your diet, a daily calcium supplement may help. Avoid caffeine and alcohol. Incorporate exercise into your regular routine Engage in at least 30 minutes of brisk walking, cycling, swimming or other aerobic activity most days of the week. Regular daily exercise can help improve your overall health and alleviate certain symptoms, such as fatigue and a depressed mood. Reduce stress Get plenty of sleep. Practice progressive muscle relaxation or deep-breathing exercises to help reduce headaches, anxiety or trouble sleeping (insomnia). Try yoga or massage to relax and relieve stress. Record your symptoms for a few months Keep a record to identify the triggers and timing of your symptoms. This will allow you to intervene with strategies that may help to lessen them. You can?t cure PMS, but you can take steps to ease your symptoms. If you have a mild or moderate form of premenstrual syndrome, treatment options include: Drinking plenty of fluids to ease abdominal bloating Eating a balanced diet to improve your overall health and energy level (eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and reduce your intake of sugar, salt, caffeine, and alcohol) Taking supplements, such as folic acid, vitamin B-6, calcium, and magnesium to reduce cramps and mood swings Sleeping at least eight hours each night to improve fatigue Getting plenty of exercise to decrease bloating and improve your mental health You can take pain medication, such as ibuprofen or aspirin, to alleviate muscle aches, headaches, and stomach cramping. You can also try a diuretic to stop bloating and water weight gain. Take medications and supplements only as directed and after speaking with your doctor. If physical pain, mood swings, and other symptoms start to affect your daily life, or if your symptoms don?t go away, you should make a doctor?s appointment to have yourself checked for other medical conditions. Your doctor may ask about any history of depression or mood disorders in your family to determine whether your symptoms are the result of PMS or another condition. Some conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome, hypothyroidism, and pregnancy, have symptoms similar to PMS. Your doctor may do a thyroid hormone test to ensure that your thyroid gland is working properly, a pregnancy test, and perhaps a pelvic exam to check for any gynecological problems. Keeping a symptom diary is another way to determine if you have PMS. Use a calendar to keep track of your symptoms and menstruation every month. If your symptoms start around the same time each month, PMS is a likely cause. I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day! Sincerely
