Summary

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) negatively affects the quality of life of millions of women. PMS is a common cyclic disorder characterized by somatic, cognitive, emotional and behavioral symptoms that usually occurs in young and middle-aged women, lasts during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and ends with the onset of menstruation.Studies have shown that women with high PMS symptoms are more inactive. Physical activity participation in women affects a wide spectrum of self-perceptions, including knowledge, social, and emotional self-perceptions. By determining which physical, emotional, social and academic/knowledge areas are affected by women, increasing their participation in physical activity can be achieved. The subject of the study is to determine the symptom severity of women with and without premenstrual syndrome and to examine how premenstrual syndrome affects physical activity self-worth.
