Özet
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the premenstrual and menstrual complaints in women of reproductive age and examine the factors that increase the severity of the symptoms. Material and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted during May-August 2018. The data were collected from 1,105 women (aged 18–49 years) through digital questionnaire, and the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 20.0 program was used for the analyses. Results: Premenstrual symptom (PMS) was experienced by 26.2% of the women, whereas 11.5% experienced premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The severity of menstrual symptoms increased in women with premenstrual complaints. Conclusion: Women with more premenstrual complaints also have more menstrual complaints. Risk factors that can increase the severity of symptoms include the following: having chronic illness or a history of psychiatric treatment, problems with reproductive organs in the previous year, dysmenorrhea and menstrual disorders, having negative thoughts about being menstrual, having never been pregnant, using contraception, consuming alcohol, and/or having a family history of PMS and dysmenorrhea. There is no significant relationship between religious attitudes and premenstrual and menstrual symptoms.
