Durante décadas, os sintomas do ciclo menstrual foram tratados como ruído de fundo — algo a suportar em silêncio, não a interpretar com atenção. A especialista Patrícia Lemos propõe uma inversão desse paradigma: o ciclo menstrual não é uma inconveniência periódica, mas um sistema de alerta precoce para doenças cardiovasculares e diabetes, condições que afetam as mulheres de forma desproporcional e silenciosa. Mais de 150 sintomas de tensão pré-menstrual estão documentados na literatura médica, e cada um deles pode ser, nas mãos certas, não um fardo, mas uma informação.
