Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a hormonal disorder. It is characterized by a regularly recurring group of symptoms which occur from two to 14 days before the start of a woman's menstrual period, usually disappearing after the period begins, and followed by a symptom-free time in each monthly cycle. PMS can be both emotional and physical, affecting almost every system of the body.
