Supplements for PMS

The 5 days when nothing helps.Or at least that's what you think.

Biscuits at 10 pm. Headache in the morning. Irritability for no reason. You're not crazy, your progesterone is falling and your cortisol is climbing. And most "supplements for women" don't address either.

What actually happens before your cycle

In the last two weeks of the cycle (days ~15-28), progesterone rises and then falls sharply. The body reacts: holds water, raises inflammatory markers, shifts serotonin activity.

Add chronic stress on top, and cortisol further suppresses progesterone. The result: cramps, bloating, insomnia, irritability, sugar cravings. Not "character". The body works this way.

Painkillers stop the pain for 4 hours. Chocolate raises serotonin for 20 minutes. Neither one reaches the cause: the cortisol that's pushing progesterone down.

Which ingredients have clinical data for PMS

Not everything on the market works. Here's what's actually been studied in women, with doses and results.

When it helps and when it doesn't

Corti-Glow may help if:

  • Your PMS is mild to moderate (cramps, bloating, irritability)
  • Stress makes the symptoms worse (which it does for most women)
  • You want an alternative to daily painkillers
  • You have sleep issues around your cycle

Corti-Glow won't replace a doctor if:

  • You have endometriosis or PMDD (severe form of PMS)
  • The pain is disabling, you can't work or get out of bed
  • Your symptoms are new or suddenly changed
  • You're on hormone therapy or antidepressants

Supplements are not medicine and do not replace medical advice.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to feel the effect of PMS supplements?+
Magnesium and vitamin B6 can help from the very first cycle. Myo-inositol shows its full effect after 2-3 cycles, most studies run for 3-6 months.
Can I take PMS supplements alongside painkillers?+
Yes. Magnesium, myo-inositol and vitamin B6 have no known interactions with ibuprofen or paracetamol. If you're on other medication, check with your doctor.
Does ashwagandha help with PMS?+
We will not promise you a result, because we cannot guarantee one and we are not going to lie to you. Here is what we can say: magnesium contributes to normal nervous system function, and vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity. The rest is a composition you can compare line by line: 2000 mg myo-inositol, 300 mg root extract, 200 mg L-theanine.
What is myo-inositol and why is it important for PMS?+
A vitamin-like compound. The body makes about 2 grams a day; the rest comes from food, with citrus, pulses and whole grains carrying the most. In the sachet: 2000 mg.
Is Corti-Glow only for PMS?+
No. The formula is an evening sachet for stress, sleep and pre-period days. In women with mild to moderate PMS, 5 of the 7 ingredients cover the most common complaints: cramps, bloating, irritability, insomnia.

The evening can be different.
