Abstract
GIRMAN and co-workers, Continuum Center for Health and Healing, New York, NY 10016, USA, review (101 references) an integrative medicine approach to premenstrual syndrome. Abstract: Complementary and alternative medical (CAM ) therapies are widely used by women suffering from pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS). The authors have searched for all clinical applications of CAM to PMS and a related disorder, pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), since 1966 on Medline. For many of the therapies that are widely used, conclusive evidence is lacking. For others, such as the use of some herbal and nutritional approaches, exercise, and the use of mind-body approaches, there is substantial evidence for efficacy.
