For 3 out of 5 women, the arrival of their period is synonymous with various and varied symptoms.
This phenomenon is called premenstrual syndrome (PMS), which includes up to 150 different symptoms .
The hormonal cause of PMS comes in particular from an insufficient synthesis of progesterone, a female hormone, by the body.
Irritability, sadness, bloating, breast pain, migraines, mood swings, etc.?
If these discomforts come back every month at the time of your period , OCYCLE is formulated for you.
