PMS therapy includes the use of drugs, e.g. magnesium which is associated with a reduction in PMS symptoms: irritability, and emotional lability (5 studies, n=775, OR 0,24, 95% CI 0,20-0,29, p<10-33), depression (5 studies, n=537, OR=0,53, 95% CI 0,44-0,63, p<10-20), headache (5 studies, n=219,OR 0,48, 95% CI 0,37-0,61, p<10-15), and mastalgia mammalgia (5 studies, n=717, OR 0,23, 95% CI 0,19-0,27, p<10-38), bloating, flatulence (5 studies,n=489, OR 0,53, 95% CI 0,44-0,63, p<10-12), swelling, a feeling of fullness (5 studies, n=262, OR 0,36, 95% CI 0,28-0,46, p<10-25), tearfulness (3 studies, n=432, OR 0,51, 95% CI 0,42-0,61, p<10-35), sweating (3 studies, n=190, OR 0,20, 95% CI 0,14-0,28, p<10-27).
