The 10-item shortened premenstrual assessment form and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales 21 (DASS 21) were completed by research units.Results: The mean age of the students participated in the research was 21.47±2.55 years old. 96.6% of the participants had some degree of PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME. Frequency of PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME on the basis of mild, moderate, severe, and very severe degrees was 52.2%, 38.8%, 5.2%, and 0.6%, respectively. Among the reported symptoms of PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME, such as stress, nervousness, irritability, depression, breast tenderness, backache, weight gain, abdominal pain, and bloating, psychological symptoms were more common than physical symptoms.Conclusion: According to the results of this study, since PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME is a common problem among women in reproductive age and has adverse effects on quality of life, so, preventive and therapeutic strategies should be provided to solve this problem.
