Abstract

Premenstrual syndrome is a term which includes a broad group of emotional, behavioral and physical symptoms that occur for several days before menses and subside following the menstrual period. Many women experience premenstrual syndrome symptoms, particularly physical ones such as breast tenderness and swelling. Approximately 5-10% women suffer from severe premenstrual syndrome and another 30-40% have moderate symptoms. Premenstrual syndrome continues to be an unsolved problem.
