What is PMS and Why Does It Happen?
PMS (premenstrual syndrome) is more than just “that time of the month.” It’s a consequential condition that can affect how you feel both physically and emotionally. For many women, it shows up every month like clockwork with mood swings, low energy, or discomfort that’s hard to ignore. For other women, PMS symptoms are not as easily tracked.
Hormones like estrogen and progesterone shift in the second half of your cycle. When those levels rise and fall too quickly or aren’t balanced, your body can react with a range of symptoms.
Symptoms of estrogen dominance and progesterone deficiency may include:
- Premenstrual breast tenderness
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
- Headaches or migraines
- Bloating and weight gain
- Heavy or irregular periods
- Fatigue and brain fog
- Low libido
- Sleep issues (insomnia or restless sleep)
- Fibrocystic breasts or uterine fibroids
- Increased risk of breast or uterine cancer
But it’s not just about hormones that affect PMS. Your stress, diet, gut health, toxins, and daily habits all influence how your body handles these changes. Issues like poor sleep or a lack of key nutrients can make PMS worse.
To truly feel better, we look beyond the symptoms to understand what’s really going on and help your body regain balance.
How We Treat PMS with Functional Medicine
At The Woodlands Institute for Health & Wellness, we know PMS can be more than just a hormonal issue. Monthly symptoms like mood swings, fatigue, and discomfort often point to deeper imbalances in the body. Our approach to PMS treatment combines natural therapies with personalized care to help you feel your best all month long.
Your care begins with a comprehensive health assessment and specific lab tests to identify the true causes of your symptoms. These tests may include:
- Hormone Testing: We check estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA to spot imbalances, such as estrogen dominance, a common root cause of PMS.
- Thyroid Panel: We test TSH, T3, T4, and antibodies to uncover hidden thyroid issues that worsen fatigue, mood swings, and brain fog.
- Adrenal Function: Cortisol imbalances can disrupt your cycle. We assess adrenal health to understand how stress impacts your hormones.
- Nutrient Testing: We check levels of magnesium, B vitamins, and vitamin D—key nutrients that support mood and hormone balance.
- Inflammation Markers: We test for chronic inflammation (CRP, homocysteine), which can throw off hormone function and worsen symptoms.
Once we’ve gathered all the information, your PMS treatment plan may include:
- Bioidentical hormone balancing
- Targeted nutritional support
- Stress and sleep support
- Customized supplements based on your labs
- Gut healing and detox strategies
- Dietary adjustments
- Mind-body tools like breathwork, journaling, or guided relaxation
