PMS, or Something More? When to Consider Hormone Testing

PMS happens to most women—but when it starts to disrupt your daily life, it’s time to ask a deeper question: Is this really just PMS, or is it a sign of something more?

At Coastal Health & Vitality in Richmond Hill, GA, we help women uncover the root cause of their cycle-related symptoms and support them with natural hormone balance.

What’s Normal vs. What’s Not?

It’s normal to experience mild changes before your period:

  • Slight mood shifts

  • Fatigue or light bloating

  • Mild breast tenderness

But if your symptoms feel intense, unpredictable, or prolonged—it may not just be PMS. It could be a sign of estrogen dominance, low progesterone, or even early perimenopause.

When to Consider Hormone Testing:

  • You’re experiencing extreme mood swings or irritability

  • You feel tired, anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed before your period

  • Your periods are irregular, heavy, or painful

  • You have acne flare-ups, bloating, or weight gain each month

  • PMS symptoms are getting worse with age

What We Do at Coastal Health & Vitality:

  • We test your hormone levels (not guess)

  • We create custom BHRT protocols to balance your estrogen and progesterone

  • We offer supplement and lifestyle support to ease monthly symptoms

  • We monitor your progress and adjust treatment as your body changes
