Filed Under Pre Menstrual Syndrome or PMS | Comments Off
As we mentioned in previous article, Premenstrual syndrome effects over 70% to 90% of women before menopause in the US and less for women in Southeast Asia because of their difference in living style and social structure. The occurence of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) have more than doubled over the past 50 years due to the acceptance of it as a medical condition that is caused by unhealthy diet with high in saturated food. Premenstrual syndrome is defined as faulty function of the ovaries related to the women’s menstrual cycle, it effects a women’s physical and emotional state, and sometimes interferes with daily activities as a result of hormone fluctuation. The syndrome occurs one to two weeks before menstruation and then declines when the period starts. There are over 150 known symptoms of PMS and they can be classified in 4 subgroups.
1. Anxiety
Anxiety is a common symptoms for women with PMS, it is caused by hormone imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. Most women with PMS is found to very high levels of estrogen and low levels of progesterone before menstruation.
2. Craving
Some women with PMS may experience the symptom of food craving, it is caused by abnormal liver function in carbohydrate synthesis. Without coordinating between liver and pancreas, it causes high levels of insulin in the blood stream resulting in increasing the risk of sugar craving. Other theory suggest when a woman under stress before period, she may grasp for eveything which makes her feel more comfortable.
3. Hyperhydration
Breast tenderness or water retention are always a problem for some women with PMS. ****** tenderness is caused by over production of prolactin as resulting of abnormal function of pituitary gland. Water retention is either caused by inability of digestive system in absorbing of potassium or abnormal function of lymphatic function. Some theories also suggest that fluid retention is caused by high levels of serotonin.
4. Depression
Researchers found that women with symptom of depression always have unbalance levels of estrogen and progesterone as resulting of liver abnormal function of fat and protein metabolism. Without right levels of estrogen and progesterone, it causes nervous tension resulting in increasing nervous disorder including depression.
