Okay, now why am I telling a guy how to fix PMS?

LOL! I guess it's just because I've seen so many women suffer from it I've become interested in trying to figure it out. Also, in relation to my Kung Fu stuff I also study herbalism and stress-relief exercise, so I'm interested in learning more about how that can be applied to help PMS sufferers.

Anyway, Tension Tamer does wonders for my migraines! I don't know what's in it that helps with PMS, but I should look that up. I have some books with stuff on American Indian and Chinese herbal remedies for PMS, I think I'll check and see if anything in them is in Tension Tamer. The other stuff you mention about water intake and diet also make sense. Does iron intake also play into that?

I don't take iron for anything. I never have. I don't know why but I'm even one of the few women who have not even been anemic during pregnancy. So, I don't know, it hasn't been an issue for me.

For the tea.... you know where you get the Tension Tamer - there is the other one - Mood Mender. I use one bag of each kind of tea in the teapot and steep them together. That seems to be about 5 times as effective as drinking either of them singly. And this remedy also works for my 18 year old daughter who has PMS much worse than I ever have. She is really in misery for more than one day. But, that mixture gives her some relief. She isn't as good about drinking water either though.
