Primary | Determining the level of premenstrual syndrome | It is a five-point Likert-type scale consisting of 44 questions measuring the severity of premenstrual symptoms. The scale has a total of nine sub-dimensions including Depressive Affect, Anxiety, Fatigue, Irritability, Depressive Thoughts, Pain, Appetite Changes, Sleep Changes, and Bloating. The application of the premenstrual syndrome scale is carried out by retrospectively evaluating the person by taking into account the status of "being within one week before menstruation". "PMSQ Total Score" is obtained from the sum of the scores obtained from all sub-dimensions. A minimum of 44 and a maximum of 220 points can be obtained from the scale. An increase in the score indicates an increase in the intensity of PMS symptoms. | At the first interview, the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale was applied to all students in both groups as a pre-test. | |
