PMS RELIEF HERBAL INFUSIONS
Certain medicinal herbs can be a useful support in PMS in areas like stabilising hormones and calming tension. Infuse the leaves, make a decoction from barks and drink as a tea. If easier, you can take them in tincture form. It is always best to get a more personalised prescription from a qualified herbalist but these are good herbs to start with.
