PMT Pure Essential Oil Blend (10ml)

Our PMT essential oil contains a balancing blend of Clary Sage, Sweet Marjoram, Geranium, Bergamot, Parsley Seed and Rose Otto to assist with the physical and emotional symptoms of PMT / PMS.

Pre-menstrual tension (PMT) or pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS) is thought to be caused by a decline in progesterone levels in the days prior to menstruation. This causes a variety of symptoms which typically occur in the week to 10 days before a period is due. Symptoms can include fluid retention, bloating, sore breasts, headaches, nausea, sleep disturbances, tiredness, aches and pains, spots/acne, stress, depression, weepiness, irritability, loss of libido or appetite, inability to concentrate and even violent mood swings. Everyone’s symptoms are different and may even vary from month to month but will usually subside at the end of the period. There are a number of essential oils that can be helpful in reducing the severity of pre-menstrual symptoms, and we have included a selection of the best oils in our PMT blend.

Clary Sage has powerful relaxant and antidepressant properties and a euphoric effect that’s excellent for uplifting the mood. It can help to balance estrogen levels and bring on and regulate menstruation as well as soothing menstrual cramps.

Sweet Marjoram is a warming and comforting oil for mind and body. It can help to soothe period pains and cramps, ease stress and tension and aid a more restful night’s sleep.

Geranium is excellent for balancing the mood, hormones and skin. It has diuretic properties and stimulates the lymphatic system which helps the body eliminate excess fluids.

Bergamot is a cheery, antidepressant oil that can help to soothe anxiety, stress and tension and lift the mood. It is also thought to help regulate the appetite.

Parsley Seed’s diuretic action helps to relieve fluid retention. It also has a tonic effect on the uterus and can help to regulate the menstrual cycle.

Rose Otto is simply the best essential oil for all problems relating to the female reproductive system. It’s a powerful uterine tonic, helping to regulate the cycle and reduce heavy periods. It also has a lovely antidepressant, uplifting effect on the mood.
