I used to have the worst pre-menstrual symptoms (PMS). Moody, crampy, and if I dare say it, super bitchy.
It got so bad some months that I would have to take the day off of school or work. I would down some Motrin and pray for the day to end. I just assumed that pre-menstrual symptoms were part of life that you just had to live with.
But since I started healing my adrenal glands and supporting my liver with Essential Oils for PMS, my symptoms have basically disappeared.
Essential Oils for PMS
Adrenal hormones play a major role in menstruation and sexual function. When these hormones are out of balance, unpleasant physical and psychological symptoms can occur. In fact, studies have consistently linked to PMS symptoms to adrenal fatigue. Applying Vibrant Blue Oils Adrenal™ over the lower back helps return the adrenals and the hormones they release to balance can help to diminish and alleviate PMS symptoms.
Liver™: The liver also plays a key role in PMS both on a physical and emotional level. It breaks down excess estrogens which contribute to PMS symptoms and helps store blood which builds up during the month. Chinese medicine also recognizes the liver for moving energy through the body. When we menstruate, we release this excess energy and blood. Stagnant energy along Liver channel can present as physical symptoms like menstrual cramps, breast distention, and lower abdominal bloating. Interesting, these symptoms are often relieved after the first few days of the cycle as the onset of bleeding releases the stagnant energy and blood. The Liver is also correlated with the emotion of anger, resentment, frustration, guilt, and bottled-up emotions that similarly are relieved by supporting optimal liver function. Vibrant Blue Oils Liver Support™ blend helps return the liver to balance to alleviate PMS Symptoms.
Hormone Balance™– PMS can often be traced to patterns of hormone imbalance. For example, research shows that high levels of estrogen in relation to progesterone (commonly known as estrogen dominance) contribute to PMS symptoms. Vibrant Blue Oils Hormone Balance™ contains a proprietary blend of essential oils that support healthy hormone balance, including Frankincense, Ylang Ylang, Sage, Geranium, and Basil.
Gallbladder™: The gallbladder concentrates bile, a fluid made in the liver that helps carry old hormones like excess estrogen out of the body. If the gallbladder is out of balance, the bile can become thick, impeding its ability to eliminate of toxins from the body. These old hormones then get reabsorbed, further contributing to PMS symptoms. Bile plays a critical role in helping to emulsify and digest our fats which are used as building blocks for healthy new hormones. Vibrant Blue Oils Gallbladder™ improves the viscosity of the bile to better eliminate excess estrogen and thus reduce symptoms of PMS.
PMS Support™ – To help relieve pre-menstrual discomforts such as pain and bloating. PMS Support is formulated with several oils known to help alleviate cramps and discomfort. Vibrant Blue Oils PMS Support™ contains a proprietary formulation of Vetiver, Clary Sage (known to help balance hormones and relieve PMS and menstrual cramps), Sandalwood, Bergamot, Cinnamon Bark, Neroli, Lemon and Petitgrain Bigarade.
