Infamous as premenstrual syndrome or PMS, this phase sees your hormones oestrogen and progesterone battle against each other.

During this period, you may feel abnormally bloated, get a sudden headache or a bout of unexplained allergies and your breasts may become unusually tender. There are 150 symptoms categorised as PMS and they vary from person to person. While you may not get rid of PMS completely, you can surely battle it better with yoga.
