PMS Relief Supplement: TCM Herbal Formula

In brief

Pre-Menses Relief is a PULSE TCM capsule formula, written as a contemporary answer to Bai Feng Wan (白凤丸). It is for premenstrual symptoms that read as Liver Qi stagnation, Spleen deficiency, and blood stasis: a stuck, heavy, or irregular cycle rather than a single symptom to mask.

4 capsules once daily after meals
2 weeks before the period
Gelatin-free capsules

Used in the two weeks before menses, it is meant to ease cramps and clots, steady flow, and take pressure off bloating and mood swings. The six herbs below are the compound.

“On my third bottle. It does help a bit with my endometriosis when I take it regularly.”

“I did not manage two full weeks before my period as recommended, and I still saw fewer cramps the day or two before and during flow, fewer clots, and more even bleeding across the day.”

“Cramps were slightly better and the body less achy. The downside is swallowing four capsules. A more concentrated 1-2 capsule dose would be easier.”

I recommend Pre-Menses Relief when monthly PMS fits a stuck, heavy, or irregular cycle. Book if pain is new or flow is very heavy.
