Survey study, 2022 # Do stress, exercise, and diet affect PMS in teenagers? No significant link was found between stress, exercise, diet, and PMS in this study of 70 nursing students.

Early or limited evidence 70 nursing diploma students in Indonesia ## What they did Cross-sectional survey of 70 nursing diploma students in Indonesia. They completed a Google Form questionnaire about stress levels, exercise, and diet. Researchers used statistical tests to look for connections between these factors and PMS. ## What they found 55.7% had moderate PMS symptoms. 81.4% experienced moderate stress. 80% did enough exercise. 84.3% had an unhealthy diet. The statistical tests showed no significant link between stress (p=0.102), exercise (p=0.900), or diet (p=0.194) and PMS. ## What it means for you In this small group of nursing students, the expected connections between lifestyle and PMS were not found. This contradicts what many people expect. Because the study only looked at a snapshot in time and included just one type of student in Indonesia, we cannot be sure these results apply to all teenagers. 55.7% experienced moderate PMS symptoms 81.4% had moderate stress 84.3% had unhealthy diet ## About the study Original title FAKTOR-FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI KEJADIAN PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME (PMS) Authors Hesty Fitria Wulandari, Entin Jubaedah Journal Jurnal Ilmiah PANNMED (Pharmacist Analyst Nurse Nutrition Midwivery Environment Dentist) Year 2022 Study design Survey study Participants 70 What was tested None.
