Thanks for asking!</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Headaches, bloating, painful swelling in the breasts and lower abdomen, stress, extreme fatigue, anxiety, and depression; the list is almost endless. These are some common symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, known as PMS for short.&nbsp;</p><br><p>They usually appear two to seven days before a woman gets her period. In rare cases, they can occur as early as two weeks prior. Generally speaking, symptoms disappear when the period arrives, or shortly after.</p><br><p><strong>Are you saying it affects all women then? Where do these symptoms come from?
