Premenstrual tension syndrome (PMS) refers to a series of mental, behavioral and physical symptoms that occur repeatedly 7-14 days before the current menstruation (i.e. in the luteal phase of menstrual cycle), and disappear immediately after menstruation. As the mental and emotional disorders of the disease are more prominent, it was previously named "premenstrual tension syndrome" and "premenstrual tension syndrome".
