Do You Suffer From PMS? Considering Drugs or Natural Alternatives?

If you suffer from PMS you may feel you are all alone and that the world is caving in on you. Are you looking into the for drug therapy? Are you considering a natural approach to this? Maybe a combination approach would be more appropriate for you.
Look at it this way. hardly a decade ago there were no therapies available from the medical community. Their goal is to sell you PMS medication. You mom was told "it's all in your head, dear". Treating the symptoms of PMS is its own industry now. On the drug therapy end, the medical industry is making billions on servicing this "disease", one they did not recognize until recently.
Alternative therapies have been available for several decades. While doctors were telling women it was all in their heads, the lady down at the corner health foods store was helping women get real relief without side effects. The study conducted by the WHI that was stopped because the drugs used caused serious complications was not a surprise to them. They knew synthetic hormones made women feel horrible in many cases. They had a sneaky suspicion that cancer rates were accelerating when women took these drugs.
