how long does pms last?

The duration of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can vary from person to person, but it typically lasts between 3 and 14 days. Symptoms usually start to appear in the days leading up to a woman's period, and they typically subside once the period begins. However, some women may experience symptoms for a longer period. If the symptoms are severe and are impacting a woman's daily life, it may be considered as Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and it is recommended to consult a healthcare provider.
