"Thanks to Guud Woman I feel confident and sexy:”

Feeling a bit "meh" during your period is normal. But what if you feel so awful that you simply can't get out of bed? Over 90% of women experience symptoms during their cycle. Gabriela was one of them. But with the right knowledge and support, she now feels great all month long.

"When I stopped taking the pill, my body was completely disoriented. My periods were long-distance, my hair fell out, my breasts were sore, and I had a lot of cramps and acne."

From PMS to symptom-free ✨

Premenstrual syndrome, abbreviated as PMS, is a collective term for various symptoms women experience around their period. You may experience physical and mental symptoms such as mood swings, breast tenderness, food cravings, cramps, anxiety, acne, headaches, or bloating.

Feeling unwell, both mentally and physically, is terrible. But many women think it's just part of life. These complaints have been accepted for generations as part of being a woman. To address these issues, women are often prescribed painkillers or birth control pills. Instead, at Guud Woman, we prefer to look at the root cause.

FAQ: Are period complaints normal?

No, menstrual symptoms aren't normal. For centuries, they've been considered "just part of life," but that's not the case. A healthy cycle is one with no or minimal symptoms.

FAQ: What is PMS?

Premenstrual syndrome, abbreviated as PMS, is a collective term for various symptoms you may experience around your period. You may experience physical and mental symptoms such as mood swings, breast tenderness, food cravings, cramps, anxiety, acne, headaches, or bloating.

PMS symptoms are associated with hormonal fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone. High estrogen levels (compared to progesterone) contribute to PMS symptoms. This is also called estrogen dominance.

FAQ: Which vitamins and minerals contribute to my health and hormones?

Studies have shown that women with PMS often have a magnesium and vitamin B6 deficiency. Magnesium is naturally found in green vegetables, avocados, bananas, dark chocolate, and nuts. Vitamin B6, which helps regulate hormonal activity, can be found in meat, poultry, eggs, green vegetables, papaya, bananas, and oranges. If you're not getting enough minerals and vitamins from your diet, you can always take a supplement to support your health.

Other studies have also shown that healthy fats (omega-3 DHA) may help reduce PMS symptoms. Healthy fats are mainly found in oily fish, nuts and seeds, avocado, olive oil, or a supplement. If you choose a supplement, see if you can opt for capsules based on algae oil (rather than fish oil). Good for you and better for the environment.
