    Premenstrual syndrome or PMS is actually a cluster of symptoms that occur two to ten days before menstruation.

Sometimes women get severe mood changes, and that can be then redefined as premenstrual dysphoric disorder, which is called PMDD. That requires intervention and often these women are prescribed SSRIs.
