Premenstrual Tension Syndrome (PMTS) is a set of signs and symptoms that occur cyclically related to menstruation, presenting enough intensity to interfere in the social and professional life of many women. Based on this, the popularity of complementary / alternative therapies has grown in recent years. Phytotherapy has been one of those alternative therapies that seeks to minimize the effects of PMTS symptoms and has been the preferred treatment of women for reducing side effects compared to pharmacological treatments. The present study aims to review the literature on the use of herbal medicines in PMTS as a therapeutic resource in the relief of physical and psychological symptoms. The bibliographic survey was conducted from articles published on the subject in online databases. In general, studies have shown that Vitex agnus-castus L., Oenothera biennis L. and Curcuma longa L. act by different means to relieve symptoms of PMTS. Thus, it has been found that phytotherapy is an effective and safe method for the treatment, relief and improvement of the quality of life of women suffering from PMTS. Keywords: premenstrual tension syndrome; phytotherapy; alternative therapy
