Premenstrual Syndrome Symptoms in Physically Active and Sedentary Female Students: Study of Cold and Tropical Zones Residents
The aim of this study was to compare the premenstrual syndrome symptoms in physically active and sedentary female students, resident in cold and tropical zones.
In this semi-experimental study, 320 female students of Jahrom University from both cold and tropical geographical zones (160 subject from each zone) including on physically active and sedentary subgroups (n=80 within each subgroup) filled the “impdd” premenstrual syndrome questionnaire.
a lower physical (P = 0.002) as well as psycho-behavioral (p = 0.001) symptoms were detected in physically active subjects from both zones. In physically active subjects from cold zones, just psycho-behavioral symptoms (p = 0.001) were lower than their sedentary counterparts. However, in the active residents of tropical zones, both physical (p = 0.002) and psycho-behavioral symptoms (p = 0.03) were lower than sedentary subjects from the same homeland.
Physical activity generally reduces premenstrual syndrome symptoms, with a higher impact on psycho-behavioral symptoms in cold zone residents, meanwhile; both physical and psycho-behavioral symptoms could be affected in subjcts living in tropical zones.
