“…Similarly, several studies have shown that educational approaches can manage PMS symptoms. [17][18][19] In this regard, Taylor et al 30 conducted a study to determine the effectiveness of peer group education on PMS in women. Consistent with this study, they showed that education by peers significantly reduces the PMS score.…”

The purpose of peer education is to develop knowledge, attitudes, and proper health behaviors by those who are not professionally trained but have common experiences.…”

Aim This study aimed to compare the effect of peer education and education provided by healthcare providers on PMS in high school students. Materials and Methods This quasi‐experimental non‐randomized controlled trial with a three‐armed parallel design was performed on 90 students allocated in three groups, namely, education by peer (intervention group 1 = 30), education by a healthcare provider (intervention group 2 = 30), and a control group (n = 30). The primary outcome was a change in the score of PMS, and the secondary outcomes were changes in the general health score and the frequency of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Education about PMS management was held in WhatsApp messenger in six sessions (two sessions per week) for both intervention groups. All three groups received routine school counseling. The researchers applied repeated‐measures ANCOVA, McNemar, and post‐hoc Bonferroni tests. Results Education in intervention group 1 (Partial Eta Squared = 0.67, p < 0.0001) and intervention group 2 (Partial Eta Squared = 0.82, p < 0.0001) significantly reduced the PMS score compared to the control group. In addition, the change in general health score in the intervention groups compared to the control group showed the effectiveness of the intervention (p < 0.001). Education did not significantly reduce PMDD frequency in the intervention groups compared to the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusion This study suggests education by peers and healthcare providers effects on PMS and general health in adolescents. It suggested that the effectiveness of these approaches be investigated in other adolescents' health conditions.

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and premenstrual syndrome (PMS) refer to physical, cognitive, or affective symptoms that arise in the late luteal phase and remit with menses. The present work is a clinically focused scoping review of the last twenty years of research on treatment for these disorders. A search of key terms using the PubMed/Medline, the Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science databases was performed, and 194 studies of adult women met initial inclusion criteria for review. Research studies concerning medications, pharmacological and non-pharmacological complementary and alternative medicine treatments, and surgical interventions with the most available evidence were appraised and summarized. The most high-quality evidence can be found for the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and combined oral contraceptives (COCs), with gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists and surgical interventions showing efficacy for refractory cases. While there is some evidence of the efficacy of alternative and complementary medicine treatments such as nutraceuticals, acupuncture, and yoga, variability in quality and methods of studies must be taken into account.

Objective: Periods of crisis, fear, and stress target hypothalamic-gonadal axis of women in reproductive age and can have an impact on menstrual symptoms. This study was conducted to evaluate menstrual cycle, premenstrual syndrome and anxiety in young girls with or without COVID-19 disease. Methods: In this descriptive and comparative study, 216 young girls infected with COVID-19 in the last 6 months were compared with 634 young girls who were not infected yet. “Personal Description Form”, “Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS)” and “State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)” were used to collect data. Results: In the study, it was determined that the mean scores of PMSS and STAI of young girls who had COVID-19 disease were higher than those who did not. It was determined that the difference between the mean scores of PMSS and STAI of young girls who had COVID-19 was statistically significant, while the difference between the mean scores of PMSS and STAI of young girls who did not have COVID-19 disease was not statistically significant. The difference between the prolongation of the two cycle intervals and the reduction of menstrual bleeding in young girls with and without COVID-19 disease was found to be statistically significant. Conclusion: As a result, it can be recommended to diagnose risk factors and to apply the necessary physical and psychological midwifery approaches in order to prevent the menstrual cycle, which is accepted as a physiological and psychological process, from deviating from its normal characteristics during the COVID-19 process and in the case of diagnosis.
