This study aimed to investigate irregular PMS, eating attitude behavior, and body mass index values among university students.Methods: The study sample consisted of 140 Artvin Coruh University students studying Nutrition and Dietetics. The study includes questions from three separate sections. The first section contains a sociodemographic characteristic form, the second section consists of the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS), and the third section includes the 26-item Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26).Results: In this study, the mean total score for PMSS was 135 +/- 38.3, and the mean total score for EAT-26 was 17.0 +/- 10.8. Individuals with irregular sleep patterns experienced more severe PMS (p < 0.01) and a shorter daily sleep duration (p < 0.05).Conclusions: High percentages of nutrition and dietetics students in our study experienced PMS, and the incidence of eating disorders was low. The relationship between PMS and EAT-26 must be understood for the health and well-being of university students.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAttitudePremenstrual syndromeStudentsArticle27211411910.7454/msk.v27i2.1483WOS:001097451300005Q4
