# How should doctors choose PMS treatment for each woman?

Treatment should be tailored to each woman's overall health, other health problems, how severe her PMS is, and how well she tolerates medication.

 Early or limited evidence

General guidance for women with PMS

## What they did

This text explains general principles for treating PMS rather than testing a specific treatment. It discusses how doctors should approach PMS differently for each woman.

## What they found

PMS is a serious condition that significantly reduces women's quality of life. While the causes of PMS are not yet fully understood, doctors have recognized ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent it.

## What it means for you

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for PMS. Instead, doctors should consider each woman's overall health, other health conditions, how severe her symptoms are, and how she responds to treatments when choosing a plan. This is guidance rather than research testing a specific treatment.
