I’ve always wondered what is the biological purpose to having this happen to a women every month? Not the actual period, which is gross enough itself... but the wacky hormonal stuff.

Here's a theory. Evolutionally speaking, PMS is a sign of reproduction failure since only non-pregnant and non-lactating women menstuate and get PMS. So it may be evolutionally advantagious for a woman to drive away a male when she fails to conceive.

PMS is generally considered a problem of hormone imbalance. The EFAs help repair the imbalance.
