Abstract

Background: It is believed that ADOLESCENTs suffer from dysmenorrhea but PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME (PMS) is not a common and prevalent disorder. Recently, some studies indicated that PMS and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) were common problems among students and PREVALENCE of premenstrual symptoms reported differently due to socio-cultural characteristics. The aim of the present study was to determine the PREVALENCE of PMS and PMDD in a group of Iranian ADOLESCENT students.Materials and Method: In this descriptive study, 142 students (aged 14-18years) from high schools of Zahedan (southeast of Iran) were selected and asked to complete the PMS questionnaire, including symptoms of PMS and demographic characteristics.Results: The findings of current study showed that 142 participants 83.1% (n=118) of them had PMS and about 57.7% (n=82) met the criteria for DSM-IV for MDD. Also, 28.2% of participants with PMS and 26.8% of those with PMDD reported that severity of symptoms interfered with their function and adjustment. Most common symptoms were breast pain (100%), gastric pain (53.5%), tiredness or lethargic (51.4%), backache (47.2%) and joint or muscle pain (38.7%). Mean of severity of symptoms was higher in students aged 16 (p=0.05).Conclusion: The PREVALENCE of PMS and PMDD were common among the ADOLESCENTs, thus systematic and well designed programs and interventions for prevention and management of PMS was highly recommended.
