A tiered, evidence-informed guide to the five PMS symptoms that show up most in the two weeks before your period — cramps, breast tenderness, cravings, skin flares and mood changes.
Most PMS advice tells you to "just push through it." This handbook doesn't.
The Luteal Phase Handbook is a 29-page, evidence-informed guide built for the two weeks before your period — the part of the cycle where cramps, breast tenderness, sugar cravings, skin flares and mood changes tend to show up hardest, and where most generic advice falls short.
Written by clinical naturopath and herbalist Bron Gooden, it walks through:
Why the second half of your cycle behaves so differently from the first
How to tell PMS from PMDD
A tiered approach to each symptom — start simple, add more support as needed
The liver's role in clearing hormones, and how to lower its load
Practical food, mineral, herb and lifestyle strategies for each symptom
A cycle map and two-week symptom log, so you can track what's actually working
A shopping list and glossary to make it easy to act on
This isn't generic "eat more greens" advice. It's tiered, specific, and built to be used — something you can pick up in the moment a symptom flares, not just read once and forget.
General education only — not a substitute for individual consultation.
