Women Issues : Mood Swings, PMS and Emotional Health - Take Help From The Gynecologist



There's a TIME of the month when a woman is at the peak of irritability - her body starts bloating, the face gets covered in acne, and she might as well feel pain in the lower abdomen portion. But, what irritates her most is 'Nothing- but still everything' around her. In short, you know a woman is PMS-ing when she has sudden shift of moods - from happy to sad to angry and to crazy.

This article will summarize the major woman's issue- Premenstrual Syndrome

Premenstrual Syndrome or PMS is the combination of several symptoms that several women suffer from a week before their period. The symptoms usually go away when the woman starts bleeding (menstruation), gets pregnant or gets her menopause. Researchers have found out that PMS is caused by acute inflammation triggered by a biomarker called C-reactive protein (CRP). Changes in the hormonal balance before and during the menstrual cycle seem to be another major cause for the problem. Chemical changes in the brain may also be involved to some extent which is why there are high chances of a woman feeling stressed, emotional or majorly depressed.

According to the study published in the Journal of Women's Health, it was surveyed 3,302 women and found the presence of CRP appears to be linked to PMS symptoms. Previous research on CRP in relation to heart attacks has found CRP presence is linked to inflammation.

While body ache and mood swings may not look like a threat and seem pretty normal during that time, there's no reason why we should ignore it. If you have been experiencing beyond the run-of-the-mill mood swings you might be suffering from PMDD.

Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a condition in which a woman has severe depression symptoms, irritability, and tension before menstruation. These symptoms of PMDD are more severe than those seen in Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) and can be highly disabling if ignored.

Though it has not been determined whether all women suffer from the risk of PMDD or there are only a few of them, but whatever be the case it is extremely important to know the causes, symptoms and treatment of the problem. Consult a gynecologist so you can know the underlying cause of the problem and the necessary treatment. Make sure you do not ignore the mood swings that happen before your menstrual cycle thinking it to be normal - there could be a bigger problem waiting ahead.

Dear Women, 

Never should you neglect your health and the changes in your body, even if it is smallest fraction of the problem. Something as normal as mood swings might turn up as a problem if left unattended; so make sure you see a doctor before things worsen. 

With Love,

Another Woman

Being a woman I surely understand why PMS has become a part of our monthly routine just like the menstrual cycle. However, I also think acute mood swings can be dangerous if not treated. While working on Jaipur Women Blog's women's health section, I realized that there is a lot more meaning to women empowerment than just jobs - it means teaching them how not to ignore the things that seem normal.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
