After the exclusive release of our new product LIFE & BALANCE, we would like to return to our commitments and the wishes that accompany this development. What if we talked about premenstrual syndrome? What if we talked about women's comfort, intimacy and breaking the still existing taboo around periods? Periods constitute approximately 6 days per month for the majority of women. They lead to constraints that are sometimes difficult to manage, to express, to confide, to testify and which many are still unaware of. Premenstrual syndrome, let’s talk about it!
What is premenstrual syndrome (PMS)? Why is PMS a taboo? What are the repercussions, the evils? What solutions to relieve it?
What exactly is premenstrual syndrome?
Named by Katharina Dorothée Kuipers Dalton, doctor, premenstrual syndrome corresponds to all the symptoms that a third of women experience a few days before the start of their period: fatigue, nausea, headaches, pain and swelling of the chest, skin problems , mood changes, temporary depression. It is a combination of physical and neuropsychological symptoms. The symptoms vary greatly from one cycle to another, from one woman to another and are therefore difficult to treat correctly over time.
To speak science, PMS is caused by an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. Today, between 80 and 90% of menstruating women suffer from PMS. However, extreme forms of PMS are less common but still present. We can then talk about PMDD, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, which affects 3 to 8% of women. This variant is an increased PMS which causes mood disorders, anxiety concerns among other symptoms.
According to gynecology doctor Claude Jacquet: “All women suffer more or less from premenstrual symptoms. A syndrome is a set of symptoms. Women describe different symptoms such as behavioral problems, irritation, lack of interest.”
What if we talked about it a little more?
Talking about it more would allow a large number of women who suffer to know how to identify PMS. Many people simply think they suffer from period pain and few will go so far as to treat their PMS. Pain that ends up being accepted and sudden despite the density of the pain. We quickly identify a form of shame, of embarrassment, which must stop. Suffering in silence is not an option and yet the insistent taboo on periods makes it almost an obligation for most victims. A suffering that sometimes goes as far as my menopause... I might as well tell you that these years of suffering are a torture that we would not wish on anyone.
It is important to no longer trivialize the symptoms linked to the cycle, and to become aware of PMS and the suffering associated with it.

The model measure I saw Gail Dines converse, at a convention in Boston, she moved the audience to tears with her description of the problems caused by means of obscenity, and provoked chortling with her spicy observations upon pornographers themselves. Activists in the audience were newly inspired, and men at the end – many of whom had not viewed smut as a complication in advance of – queued up afterwards to guaranty their support. The mise en scene highlighted Dines’s explosive charisma and the factually that, since the expiry of Andrea Dworkin, she has risen to that most difficult and exciting of conspicuous roles: the elated’s foremost anti-pornography campaigner.
