Data were analyzed with the SPSS 21.0 program using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression. In nursing students premenstrual syndrome was significantly positive correlated with stress(r=-.396, p<.001) and menstrual attitude(r=-.176, p=.027). The significant factors that influence premenstrual syndrome were stress(β=.36, p<.001) and dysmenorrhea (β=.22, p=.003), which explained 19.4%. The results indicate a need to manage the premenstrual syndrome of nursing students.

The current study was aim to evaluate the relationship between alcohol consumption and dysmenorrhea among age-stratified female college students in northern China.Methods A total of 3692 female college students were included in this cross-sectional study. The logical regression model was performed to evaluate the association between alcohol consumption and primary dysmenorrhea. The model adjusted for confounding factors such as age and body mass index, and estimated the odds ratio (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CIs).Results Multivariable-adjusted models showed the analysis stratified by age at menarche (AAM) revealed that the prevalence of dysmenorrhea in participants with AAM < 13 years old (67.2%) was significantly higher than that in participants with AAM ≥13 years old (61.3%) (P = 0.003). Alcohol consumption showed a dose-response relationship with dysmenorrhea in participants with AAM ≥13 years old.Conclusion Our findings showed AAM modified the association of alcohol consumption with primary dysmenorrhea among female university students in North China.

Background: Symptoms in the premenstrual period have a detrimental impact on the general health of women. There is a lack of studies examining the relationship between menstrual attitudes and symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), especially in the Indian scenario. This study was conducted to look at contributing factors, frequency of PMS in different age groups and the association of these symptoms towards the attitude towards menstruation in nursing staff. Methodology: The cross-sectional study involved 450 female nursing staff between 25-50 years of age from various tertiary care hospitals who were administered the Premenstrual Tension Syndrome Rating Scale (PMTS) and Menstrual Attitude Questionnaire (MAQ). The data was then statistically analyzed. Results: The prevalence of premenstrual symptoms was found to be 85.6% amongst the participants (according to the ACOG criteria), while the proportion of females suffering from PMS (according to DSM IVTR criteria) was 36.5%. On studying the association, a negatively significant correlation between scores on PMTS and mean scores of MAQ across all age groups. Conclusion: The intensity of PMS was associated with negative menstrual attitude in our study. Further studies on PMS, its frequent symptoms and relevant variables may guide psychoeducational interventions and need to carried out in larger and diverse populations to corroborate our findings.
