Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) (also called PMT or premenstrual tension) is a collection of physical and emotional symptoms related to a woman's menstrual cycle. While most women of child-bearing age (up to 85%) report having experienced physical symptoms related to normal ovulatory function, such as bloating or breast tenderness, medical definitions of PMS are limited to a consistent pattern of emotional and physical symptoms occurring only during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle that are of "sufficient severity to interfere with some aspects of life". In particular, emotional symptoms must be present consistently to diagnose PMS. The specific emotional and physical symptoms attributable to PMS vary from woman to woman, but each individual woman's pattern of symptoms is predictable, occurs consistently during the ten days prior to menses, and vanishes either shortly before or shortly after the start of menstrual flow.
Two to ten percent of women have significant premenstrual symptoms that are separate from the normal discomfort associated with menstruation in healthy women.
Hide hide hide hide hide hide hide
See her storm out of the kitchen
With a blood-curdling scream
She's not the girl that I first met
This one's pretty mean
My woman chewed my head off me
Just the other night
She's got the mood
She's gonna brood
What gives her the right
Well it's PMS
She's all uptight
And she'll pick a fight
She's on overload
Watch her explode
Her brand new jeans
Are popping their seams
They're as tight as a clam
She's public reservoir number one
Hoover Dam
So bring home some chocolate
It might save your life
Tell her you love her
And hide all the knives
Her friend is back in town
Don't mess around with
She's all uptight
And she'll pick a fight
She's on overload
Watch her explode
