Menstruation is a normal physiological process in females starting at the age of twelve years and lasts till the age of fifty years. It is a cyclical phenomenon usually occurring every twenty-one to thirty five days and includes uterine bleeding for about three to seven days.

The objective: of research is to evaluate course of pregnancy and labor in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Patients and methods. The research included 200 women of reproductive age with diagnosis of PMS and 50 women without diagnosis of PMS. Data of reproductive and obstetrical history were collected. Results. We determined that women with PMS have more pregnancies (in 1.59 times, c2=10.74, p=0.001) and labors (in 1.70 times, c2=10.56, p=0.001) compared with controls. Also they have a tendency for development of pathological course of pregnancy and labor. Complications of pregnancy and labor are the most typical for patients with edematous form of syndrome compared with healthy individuals (c2=4.71, p=0.03, OR=3.92, 95%CI=1.27–12.06, p=0.02). These persons have a greater share of late gestosis – in 4,55 times significantly greater incidences – 47.82% versus 10.52% of women in control group (c2=6.51, p=0.01, OR=7.79, 95%CI=1.61–37.65, p=0.01). Conclusion. Special attention should be paid to women with edematous form of PMS, which are significantly more marked the development of late gestosis. These women are at risk of pathological labor – caesarean section, forceps, hypotonic/atonic postpartum uterine bleeding and preterm labor. Key words: premenstrual syndrome, pregnancy, labor, complications.

Background: Premenstrual symptoms affect about 40% of women of reproductive age. In an effort to alleviate premenstrual symptoms, affected women practice various remedial approaches. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and severity of premenstrual symptoms experienced by women, the associated factors and the remedial approaches practiced by them.Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at a rural primary care clinic situated in Hulu Langat, Malaysia. All women of reproductive age (18 to 44 years old) attending the clinic during the study period and who fit the selection criteria were included. Premenstrual symptoms and severity were assessed using a self-report questionnaire, the Shortened Premenstrual Assessment Form (SPAF). It consists of 10 items that measure changes in mood, behaviour and physical symptoms. The respondents were also asked if they had used any remedy to relieve their symptoms.Results: A total of 158 women were included in the study. The majority of the respondents were Malay (70.3%), followed by Indian (16.5%) and Chinese (10.8%) women. About 75% of the women experienced at least one of the premenstrual symptoms. Approximately 7% of them reported experiencing severe symptoms in all three subscales of the SPAF. The frequently reported symptoms were body ache (75.3%), abdominal pain (75.3%), irritable feeling (63.9%) and breast discomfort (61.4%). The symptom score was higher among Malay women (p = 0.034), and those with a higher household income (p = 0.037) and higher educational level (p = 0.01). There was no significant association between premenstrual symptoms and age, marital status, menstrual cycle and age of menarche. The common remedies used were vitamins (19%), a healthy diet (15.8%) and analgesics (13.3%). Approximately 60% of the women did not use any remedy to reduce their premenstrual symptoms.Conclusion: Premenstrual symptoms were common among women attending the clinic. The symptoms affect them significantly both physically and emotionally. Thus, it is essential for primary care providers to take an active role in identifying, educating and managing premenstrual symptoms among women.

According to modern literature, the frequency of preoperative diagnostic errors for tumour-like formations is 30.9–45.6%, for malignant ovarian tumors is 25.0–51.0%. The complexity of this situation is asymptomatic tumor in the ovaries and failure to identify a neoplastic process, which is especially important for young women, as well as ease the transition of tumors from one category to another (evolution of the tumor) and the source of the aggressive behavior of the tumor. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the history of concomitant gynecological pathology in a group of patients of reproductive age with ovarian tumors and tumoroid formations, as a predisposing factor for the development of neoplastic process in the ovaries. In our work, we collected and processed complaints and data of obstetric and gynecological anamnesis of 168 patients of reproductive age (18–40 years), operated on the basis of the Department of oncogynecology for tumors and ovarian tumours in the Samara Regional Clinical Oncology Dispensary from 2012 to 2015. We can conclude that since the prognosis of neoplastic process in the ovaries is generally good with timely detection and this disease occurs mainly in women of reproductive age, doctors need to know that when assessing the parity and the presence of gynecological pathology at the moment or in anamnesis, it is not possible to identify alarming risk factors for the development of cancer in the ovaries.
