The change in the behaviors of nourishment may have an impact upon the symptoms of PMS.…”

“…According to the findings of a research study, depression itself exacerbates PMS [15]. Individuals with high levels of anxiety tend to experience higher levels of PMS, and as anxiety levels increase, the severity of PMS also tends to be higher [16]. While PMS is associated with anxiety and depression in women, counseling can not only reduce the intensity of PMS but also alleviate the severity of depression, stress, and anxiety in these individuals [17].…”

This study has been designed to investigate of computer-based stress inoculation training (SIT) counseling approach on anxiety, depression, and stress of university students with PMS. Methods A randomized trial study with two parallel arms was done from 30 October 2022 to 21 June 2023 on 100 university students aged 18 to 38 at Babol University of Medical Sciences. The participants were randomly divided into two groups intervention and control. The data collection tools included questionnaires on demographic-fertility characteristics, the Premenstrual Symptoms Screening Tool (PSST), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14), the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) and Riff’s Psychological Well-being Scale (RPWS). The data were assessed using chi-square, t-student, ANOVA repeated measure, and linear regression tests. A significance level of P < 0.05 was considered for the analysis. Results The results of the study showed that the SIT interventions decreased the PMS severity and most psychological factors so in the intervention group, SIT was able to significantly reduce anxiety, depression, perceived stress, and Sheehan’s disability after intervention (P < 0.001). Based on multiple linear regression analysis, the most predictors of HADS were the PSS and SDS (β = 0.285, p = 0.009 and β = 0.236, p = 0.024, respectively). Conclusion The computer-based SIT counseling approach could reduce the severity of symptoms and psychological factors in students. Therefore, SIT intervention is recommended to manage their PMS.

Dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological condition in women, often attributed to excessive prostaglandin production, significantly impacting daily activities. Papaya leaves, known for their medicinal properties, are a chosen herbal remedy, albeit with a bitter taste, necessitating combination with pineapple fruit. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a combination of papaya leaf extract and pineapple fruit as an alternative treatment for primary dysmenorrhea. In an experimental research design employing the posttest-only control group, 32 male mice were divided into seven groups, injected with acetic acid as a pain inducer, and their writhing responses were recorded for 45 minutes at 15-minute intervals. Data analysis using the ANOVA test revealed significant differences in the number of writhing responses in mice (p <0.05) compared to the positive control group, followed by the Duncan test. The percentage of analgesic protection was as follows: mefenamic acid (61.01%), pineapple fruit extract (62.78%), papaya leaf extract (63.39%), a combination of pineapple and papaya leaf extracts with a dose ratio of 3:1 (73.21%), 2:2 (47.32%), and 1:3 (37.78%). In conclusion, the combination of pineapple extract and papaya leaves in a dose ratio of 3:1 demonstrated the most effective pain reduction.
