I want to work using cognitive science & psycho neurosciences on premenstrual syndrome symptoms to analyse the actual cause of these symptoms. Also if possible can Cognitive behaviour therapy do something in solving PMS symptoms?
I don't feel that I am the definitive resource for this topic, but the issue seems analogous to instruments and therapies for enabling sufferers of depression, anxiety, and schizotypal disorders to manage their internal and external impulses, as they have for me. A few references that I've come across:

That's a start - there are still many more, once you tell me how close I've come to your needs.
