dc.description.abstractBackground Premenstrual syndrome affects women's physical, psychological, and social health negatively. Moreover, it causes behavioral disorders such as anger, crime, and aggression tendencies. However, there is a limited number of studies in the literature which examined the relationship between premenstrual syndrome and crime, aggression, or violence. Objective The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between premenstrual syndrome and aggression tendencies. Methods This is a descriptive study. The 774 voluntary adolescent girls studying at a state university in Turkey constituted the sample of the research. Results The mean age of adolescent girls was 19.05 +/- 1.64. The mean age of first menstruation for the participants was 13.35 +/- 1.23. It was determined that 58.3% of the participants had a premenstrual syndrome. Premenstrual syndrome intensity levels were higher among adolescent girls whose menstruation interval was < 28 days, those who had irregular menstrual cycles, those who found their menstruation-related knowledge inadequate, those diagnosed with anemia and those who thought their anger/aggression tendencies increased in their premenstrual period (p<0.05). Moreover, aggression tendencies increased among adolescent girls as the intensity of premenstrual syndrome increased (p<0.05). Conclusion Health professional's premenstural symptoms were carefully evaluated and individualized care and treatment plans were created.
