Short answer: Magnesium is one of the most useful minerals for PMS, it supports muscle relaxation (cramps), fluid balance (bloating), and a calmer mood. The gentlest, best-absorbed form is magnesium glycinate, taken daily across the cycle rather than just before your period.
Magnesium supports the nervous system, muscle relaxation and serotonin, exactly the systems that struggle premenstrually. Many women run low, which can make PMS worse.
Magnesium glycinate is calming and gentle on digestion. Femme Flourish uses glycinate alongside B6 for PMS support. Take it daily for the best effect.
Commonly around 200-400 mg of elemental magnesium daily; start low and adjust.
Daily across the whole cycle works better than only premenstrually.
Magnesium glycinate, calming and easy on the stomach.
