1. Emotional symptoms
a) Unhealthy diet
Since we all know that our diet contains high amount of saturated and trans fat. Imbalance of levels of essential fatty acids cause inability of liver in secreting bile into the digestive system in fat and protein metabolism that causes nervous tension resulting in increasing the emotional symptoms of PMS such as stress, anxiety, tiredness, insomnia, etc.
b) Vitamins and minerals deficiency
It is not unknown why women with PMS are found to have low levels of vitamin B complex and magnesium deficiency. These may be caused by low levels of stomach acid or inability of digestive system in absorbing vital nutrients before period resulting in increasing nervous tension that cause emotional symptoms.
c) Hormone imbalance
Researchers found that women with PMS always have imbalance of levels of estrogen and progesterone before menstruation. It may be caused abnormal function of some glands in the body including the pituitary, thyroid gland.
Remember over or under production of certain hormones such as serotonin, estrogen, progesterone, prolactin, adrenaline increases the nervous disorder resulting in symptoms of PMS.
d) Thyroid gland
Women with PMS are found to have low thyroid function resulting in increasing the risk of depression, stress, fatigue, tiredness, insomnia, etc.

2. Physical symptoms
a) Foods and sugar craving
strong liver is important for women with PMS. Unfortunately, most women with PMS are found to have sluggish liver function before menstruation caused by abnormal function of liver in carbohydrate synthesis and insulin regulating resulting in foods and sugar craving.
b) Breast tenderness and water retention
For what ever reasons, researchers show that some women with PMS are found to have high levels of prolactin and low levels of potassium as resulting in abnormal function of pitiutary gland and lymphatic function resulting in breast tenderness and water retention accordingly.
c) Palpitation
Some women with PMS might experience heart palpitation, it is caused by malfunction of thyroid gland, imbalance of estrogen and progesterone and inability of liver in secreting bile into digestive system.
d) Nervous tension
Our nervous besides requiring strong liver in fat and protein metabolism to function normally, it also need the right levels of estrogen and progesterone to transmitting information between cells. Sluggish liver and imbalance of estrogen and progesterone cause nervous tension resulting in symptoms of PMS.
c) Menstrual cramps
Some women may experience menstrual cramps which will disappear as soon as period start. It may be caused irregular function during ovaries or essential fatty acids deficiency resulting in imbalance of estrogen and progesterone and over production of certain hormone in the prostaglandins family causing menstrual cramps.
