Anxiety and stress as predictors of the premenstrual syndrome

Author
Abstract
As the study about the menstrual cycle and the premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and/or premenstrual changes (CPM) is progressing, evidences about the important role played by tne anxiety-trait, as well as stress on the suffering of these disorders are acumulated. On the other hand, anxiety seems to be the only universal premenstrual complaint, as well as the most uncomfortable one and what more interferes in the life of women who suffer these disorders. In our work, made with a sample of 79 women without severe disorders related with the premenstrual phase of the cycle, we assess the weight of the anxiety- trait and the situations what generate fluctuations in the anxiety responses through the different moments of the ovaric cycle.
