Abstract: Premenstrual Syndrome is a condition that appears in the luteal phase of menstrual cycles and decreases or fades away with menstruation. This condition might manifest itself through behavioral, psychological and physical symptoms, which are usually discomforting, and has no underlying psychiatric causes. Premenstrual Syndrome is a problem that affects women and its etiology is still not known for certain. In its diagnosis and treatment, the healthcare officials play a fundamental role. The healthcare officials should acquire a detailed anamnesis by assessing the objective and subjective information received from women. There should be consultation services that inform women about its treatment and thus seek to enhance the life quality of women. Therefore, the healthcare officials should be aware of PMS and should be knowledgeable about treatment processes. This review discusses the definition, types, etiology, diagnosis and treatment of Premenstrual Syndrome and the responsibilities of the healthcare officials.
