First: What is your body telling you?

Using a scale from 1 to 5, rate the PMS symptoms you have experienced in the last 3 months. If you did not experience the symptom, please rate it as a 1. Here’s how to rate your symptoms:

  • 1 = I do not experience this symptom with any regularity.
  • 2 = the symptom is a minor problem — I notice the symptom but can manage it most of the time.
  • 3 = the symptom is a moderate issue for me — I can manage it some of the time but I sometimes struggle with it.
  • 4 = the symptom is a real problem, though I try to push myself through it.
  • 5 = the symptom is severe — I can barely function.
