The pre-menstrual period can vary in both duration (from a couple of days to upto 10 days before the onset of the monthly periods), as well as in severity (negligible/ no symptoms, to anxiety, fatigue, feeling emotional/ irritable, stomach cramps, headache, bloating, aggravation of the symptoms for women who have PCOD/ PCOS, fibroids or endometriosis). In Iyengar yoga, the practices for women’s reproductive health have been defined with a great deal of nuance and sophistication, making them extremely efficacious. This includes the practice on the days of menstruation (the menstrual practice), the few days leading up to menstruation (pre-menstrual practice), and also a few days immediately after (post-menstrual practice).
