Take magnesium 1,000 mg. a day . Deficiencies have been linked to PMS.
Take calcium 1,500 mg. a day this helps reduce some symptoms. Take Vitamin B6 reduces water retention and increases blood circulation to the female organs. Take Vitamin E to help reduce breast soreness. Black cohosh relieves premenstrual tension, menstrual cramps and water retention, helps control mood changes.

Evening primrose oil can be safely tried at a dose of 2-4 gms (standardized to 9% gamma a-linolenic acid) and especially useful if there is breast tenderness and pain present. It gives relief when there are other symptoms associated with PMS such as irritable bowel syndrome and hot flushes
