To know if you are really suffering from PMS you have to observe yourself if you are experiencing the symptoms repeatedly together with your menstrual cycle and not experience it after the menstruation and according to health professionals, to qualify that it is PMS, the symptoms affects or interferes with some of the daily living activities of the sufferer.

It is important to know that sometimes it’s hard for most women if not all to control this syndrome. For men, it is important that you comprehend that during this period women are not acting out or being too emotional because they have less control over it.
My friends Tommy told us one time about her girlfriend Laura was sobbing and crying while watching the movie “The Godfather” “We watched that movie several times already but I was surprised to see her crying her heart out on the part where Michael’s wife confessed that she deliberately has their child aborted.” He said laughing while recalling the situation.
Laura was kind of amused of herself during that time “I can’t help myself from crying, I don’t know what came over me. I just felt like crying and feeling so much. I guess I was having that time of the month.” Being overly emotional is just one of the symptoms of pre menstrual syndrome.
Unlike Laura, some women suffer more that just crying over movies. Having severe and sudden mood swings, extreme emotional responsiveness and reactions, irritability, irrationality, unexplained crying, anxiety, forgetfulness, decreased attentiveness or focus, confusion, withdrawal, sensitivity to rejection or any negative responses, sudden burst of anger, food cravings,and to some having suicidal thoughts and depression are some of the psychological symptoms of pre menstrual syndrome.
While headaches or migraines, bloating, increased weight, increase production of pimples and/ or acnes, sweating, diarrhea or constipation, breast tenderness, muscles and joint pains, backaches, decreased sex drive, nightmares and shakiness are some of the physical symptoms of pre menstrual syndrome. It is essential that you know and is aware of these symptoms because PMS, believe it or not is one of the factors that causes relationship breakdowns.
An also, as a woman, knowing that a man understands this kind of disorder helps.
