  • Purpose: This descriptive study aimed to identify the menstrual cycle characteristics and premenstrual syndrome (PMS) prevalence in Korean young adult women using the retrospective and prospective Daily Record of Severity of Problems (DRSP). Methods: In the first stage, participants included 151 nursing students studying in a university located in Seoul. Data were collected from April 20 to June 2, 2017, using the questionnaire on menstrual characteristics, pictorial blood assessment chart, and retrospective DRSP. In the second stage, participants included 17 students with PMS, based on the screening conducted in the first stage. Data were collected using the prospective DRSP from May 29 to 2 September 2, 2017. Results: Of the study sample, 104 participants (68.9%) had regular periods. Those with regular periods had 11.97 periods annually with a menstrual cycle of 29.38 days and a period duration of 5.72 days. Fifty-five participants (37.4%) showed menorrhagia. Sixty-four participants (42.4%) were found to have PMS based on their retrospective DRSP. When the ratio of women (52.9%) with PMS shown in the prospective DRSP was used as a positive predictive value, the estimated PMS prevalence was 22.4%. Conclusion: This study provides clinically significant PMS prevalence among Korean young adult women, positive predictive value of the retrospective DRSP, and valid data to basically understand the menstrual cycle characteristics experienced by these women.

  • 본 연구에서는 침 치료가 PMS 증상에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 침 처치, MSSL-D 작성, 혈액검사, 체열검사 등의 임상시험을 실시한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. 침 치료는 월경전기증후군의 증상을 효과적으로 개선하였다. 2. 침의 효과는 신체증상과 정신증상 모두에 효과적이었으며, 대조군 처치도 정신증상에는 증상의 개선을 나타내었다. 3. 월경전기증후군의 증상의 변화와 혈중 progesterone 농도의 변화는 유의한 상관성이 없었다. 윌경전기증후군에서 침 치료는 신체의 좌우의 체표면 온도 차이를 유의하게 조절하였다. 이상의 연구 결과에서, 침 치료가 월경전증후군의 증상개선과 인체 불균형을 조절하는데 유의한 효과가 있음을 보여주었으나, 충분한 수의 여성을 대상으로 하는 임상시험을 통하여 월경전기증후군 에서 다양한 변증에 따른 침의 효과를 증명하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
