PMS means pre-menstrual syndrome, which refers to symptoms leading up to menstruation.

PMS however is a nonsense term, it basically suggests that anything negative you experience leading up to menstruation is PMS and thus normal - which is untrue. If you suffer symptoms leading up to menstruation it's always best to refer to them individually and recognise that negative symptoms are not something that you have to tolerate.
