Abstract

Women and clinicians have long been aware of changes in mental and physical states related to the menstrual cycle. These changes, first described by Frank (1931) as premenstrual feelings consisting of “indescribable tension, irritability,” and “a desire to find relief by foolish and ill-considered actions,” came to be called the premenstrual tension syndrome. Since tension is only one of the components occurring during this period, the term “premenstrual syndrome” is currently preferred, since it more completely encompasses somatic and psychological components. A recent review (Steiner and Carroll, 1977) offers “premenstrual dysphoria” as an alternative term.
