If you struggle with PMS and mood swings, you may have been told that chronic monthly discomfort is simply a normal part of being a woman. In Season 1, Episode 5 of 14 Ways to Optimize Women’s Health, Dr. Kyrin Dunston, MD, challenges this narrative by exploring the underlying physiological triggers of premenstrual emotional changes.
Many women experience intense mood swings before period cycles begin, sometimes leading to a diagnosis of premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Rather than merely managing PMS symptoms with temporary fixes, this episode offers a deeper look into women's hormonal health. Dr. Dunston explains how hormonal mood swings are often signals of deeper endocrine imbalances that can be corrected through targeted lifestyle, nutritional, and mind-body adjustments. By understanding the root causes of these fluctuations, you can begin to implement natural remedies for PMS that restore lasting equilibrium.
Dr. Dunston, a leading expert in functional medicine, guides viewers through the intricate web of endocrine function. She highlights how modern lifestyle factors, chronic stress, and nutritional deficiencies can exacerbate premenstrual emotional changes, turning manageable shifts into severe disruptions. This comprehensive approach helps demystify why so many women suffer in silence, believing their symptoms are an inevitable tax on female biology. True healing comes from addressing the root causes rather than masking the symptoms. By focusing on personalized nutrition, stress reduction techniques, and targeted supplementation, you can build a solid foundation for long-term vitality. The episode concludes with a practical, seven-day home practice designed to help you actively monitor your body's responses and fine-tune your wellness strategy.
