Understanding Pre Menstrual Syndrome

Pre Menstrual Syndrome or simply PMS is a term used to describe symptoms which occur any time after ovulation. Ovulation happens between the 12th and 15th day of the start of your menstrual cycle. The start of your cycle is indicated when bleeding begins. The symptoms then disappear almost as soon as your period arrives. What you need to check to decide if you suffer from PMS is not what symptoms you are experiencing but rather when in your cycle you have them.
