연구목적 여고생에서 월경전 증후군/월경전 불쾌장애의 빈도와 임상적 특징을 조사하고, 다양한 사회인구학적 요인과 월경 관련 요인이 월경전 증후군/월경전 불쾌장애에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 방 법 서울시내에 위치한 5개 여자고등학교 학생 1,688명을 대상으로, 월경전 증상, 우울, 불안 척도 및 사회인구학적, 월경 관련 문항이 포함된 자기기입식 설문조사를 시행하였다. Premenstrual Symptom Screening Tool(PSST)를 기준으로 대상자를 3군으로 분류하여 월경전 증후군/월경전 불쾌장애의 빈도와 임상적 특징을 분석하였으며, 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하여 관련요인을 파악하였다. 결 과 Moderate to Severe PMS와 PMDD의 빈도는 각각 20.1%와 6.4%였다. 월경전 증상 중 과민성(78.8%), 피로감(76.4%), 감정기복(69.8%)의 빈도가 높았으며, 학업 수행(67.1%)영역에서 기능의 장애가 두드러졌다. 우울, 불안 수준을 보정한 분석에서 생리통[odd ratio(OR)=3.68, 95% confidence interval(CI) 2.45-5.55], 월경전 증후군의 가족력(OR=1.91, 95% CI 1.35-2.71) 및 경구 피임약 복용 경험(OR=1.85, 95% CI 1.16-2.94)이 있을 경우 월경전 증후군/월경전 불쾌장애의 비교위험도가 유의하게 높았다. 또한, 우울, 불안 증상이 없는 대상군에서는 월경에 대한 부정적인 태도(OR=15.60, 95% CI 3.61-67.42)가 월경전 증후군/월경전 불쾌장애의 위험도를 높이는 것으로 나타났다. 결 론 여고생에서 월경전 불쾌장애를 포함한 중등도 이상의 월경전 증후군의 빈도가 25%가 넘을 정도로 상당히 높고 이로 인한 기능의 장애 역시 심하였다. 월경전 증후군은 다양한 사회인구학적 요인 및 월경 관련 요인과 관련되어 있으며, 이러한 관계는 우울, 불안 증상의 공존이환 여부에 크게 영향을 받는다.

Purpose: This study was to provide preliminary data for menstrual education and research for the early adolescents. Methods: Participants were 320 middle school students in Gangreung city. Data collection was done from May 1 to May 30, 2004 by self administered questionnaires. Results: In recollecting of menarche experiences, students felt more negative (happy 18.5%, confused 72.6%, embarrassed 82.2%, angry 38.1%, proud 26.2%, excited 15.6%, surprised 54.7%). For menarche preparation, there was a low level of explanations & knowledge of menstruation, and preparedness for menarche. Key informants regarding menstruation experiences were the mother and school teacher. The mean age of menarche was 12.3years old. 66.6% had premenstrual symptoms, and the mean score of VAS for dysmennorrhea was 4.50. Significant variables related to the VAS score were embarrassed of menarche experience(F=3.38, p=.019), preparedness for menarche(F=2.86, p=.038), and premenstrual symptoms(t=63.36, p.000), Conclusion: Preparation for a positive menarche experience prior to menarche is necessary. More active menstrual education should be given for early adolescents in the school and family setting. Replication studies in other regions and developing a menstrual education program is recommended. Systematic examinations of perimenstrual discomforts for early adolescents should be followed.

This study was aimed to identify the effect of abdominal moxibustion on premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea in university students. The data were collected by using questionnaires from April 25, 2005 to June 20, 2005. The subjects were university students from in the Pusan metropolitan area who had complained of menstrual discomfort. Thirteen students were assigned to the experimental group and fourteen students to the control group. The research design of this study was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. In the research method pretest were conducted through measurement based on scores of general character, menstrual character, premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea in the experimental group and the control group. Experimentation was conducted by abdominal moxibustion being applied on the kwan-won hole and Ki-hae hole for 25 minutes at a time, three times a week, form the ending of one menstrual cycle to the beginning of the next menstrual cycle were in the experimental group. After treatment was finished, post tests conducted through measurement based on scores of premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea in the experimental group. The control group conducted a point of same time and same measurement with the experimental group. The instruments used in this study MDQ(Menstual Distress Questionnaire) developed by moos(1968) and the VAS(Visual Analogue Scale) developed by Cline(1992). The data were analysed by SPSS/ win 12.0 program with ${\chi}$2-test and t-test to verify identification among subjects' general characteristics and menstrual characteristics. Hypothesis verification was analysed with t-test. The results of the study are as follows: The hypothesis, 'the experimental group who received abdominal moxibustion will decrease premenstrual symptoms more than the control group', was supported (t= -2.121, p=.022). The hypothesis, 'the experimental group who received adbominal moxibustion will decrease dysmenorrhea compared to the control group', was supported (t=-4.424, p=.001).

Purpose: This study was conducted to explore the relationship between isoflavones intake from soy foods and perimenstrual symptoms among women. Methods: The research design was a cross sectional study. Subjects consisted of 245 women living in Korea, aged 19-49 years. The measurement tools were MDQ and FFQ. Results: Frequently consumed soy isoflavones foods were rice with soybeans, soybean paste stew, and soy paste with tofu. The amounts of soy isoflavones foods consumed in order from highest to lowest were rice with soybeans, soybean paste stew, seasoned soybean sprouts, and soy paste with tofu. Subjects were divided into three groups by isoflavones intake levels; the small intake group, moderate intake group, and large intake group. There were significant differences in some menstrual symptoms, and postmenstrual symptoms by isoflavones intake levels. In general, the moderate isoflavones intake group showed lower scores in some menstrual symptoms and postmenstrual periods compared to the small and large intake groups. Conclusions: These results suggest some positive health effects of isoflavones from soy foods on perimenstrual symptoms. More accurate, objective measurement needs to be applied and more investigation of soy isoflavones effects on many aspects of women's health need to be done in a future study.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of exposure to endocrine disruptors, burnout, and social support from peers on premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in nurses. Methods: This descriptive correlational study was conducted among 122 nurses under the age of 49 working at a university hospital. The participants answered self-report questionnaires. The data were analyzed using the t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression in IBM SPSS version 23.0. Results: The mean age of the nurses was 28.9 years. Of these nurses, 49.2% were working in a general ward, 24.6% in the intensive care unit, 14.8% in the emergency room, and 11.4% in an outpatient department. The explanatory power of the model was 38.3%, and it was statistically significant (F=11.74, p≤.001). Exposure to endocrine disruptors (β=0.32, p<.001) was the most powerful variable affecting PMS, followed by burnout (β=0.27, p=.001), working in the intensive care unit or emergency room (β=0.22, p=.003), family history of PMS (β=0.19, p=.009), and support from coworkers (β=-0.15, p=.043). Conclusion: Based on these findings, it is necessary to develop an intervention program to reduce the symptoms of PMS. Additionally, further studies are needed to develop and evaluate measures to minimize exposure to endocrine disruptors and burnout in order to alleviate PMS among nurses.
