详细描述
Premenstrual syndrome is characterized by the presence of both physical and behavioral (including affective) symptoms that occur repetitively in the second half of the menstrual cycle and interfere with some aspects of the woman's life(1). The core symptoms of PMS include affective symptoms, such as irritability, depression, anxiety, and somatic symptoms, such as breast pain, bloating, swelling, and headache (2). Women with moderate to severe PMS symptoms had a reduction in health-related quality of life(3) and work productivity, increased work absenteeism, and visits to ambulatory healthcare providers (4), so the treatment of this syndrome is essential.
