This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP Curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Natural Medicine.

Here's a video that has a few ideas which may or may not be applicable to your friend's issue:

Minimum requirements:
- Help your friend with their PMS problem
- Refer to them by a number or pseudonym that you will continue to use for that friend throughout the Natural Medicine badge

To document completion of the BB, provide the following:
- Your friend's pseudonym
- Describe the issue your friend is struggling with
- Symptoms
- Duration
- Severity
- Medical diagnosis (if any)
- Your suggestions for relief (including, but not limited to)
- Behavioral
- Food as medicine
- Concoctions
- Description of success (including, but not limited to)
- What your friend actually did
- How well it worked
- How long it took to see results
- Picture of you with friend on the first meeting
- Picture of you with friend (giving a thumbs up) on your last meeting

This is Hermoine Granger. She came to me with some troubling female symptoms right before her cycle. Including: moods wings, water retention and weight gain, spikes in ache count, food cravings, irritation, menstrual cramps. These symptoms start two to there days before cycle begins. In short, they made life miserable for Hermoine. This happens every cycle for about six months, getting pergressively worse. Here is what I recommended: an essential oil blend called "Clary Calm" for topical use, PMS tea blend, avoiding sugar and dairy, and getting extra sleep. On the following cycle, we did all of these things, except avoiding sugar. However. Symptoms were significantly better. Getting more sleep was probably the most helpful, along with the tea. Now we know what helps.
