No clear relationship was found between lifestyle and PMS in this study.

Early or limited evidence 160 nursing students in Indonesia

160 nursing students answered questions about their lifestyle habits (sleep, exercise, diet, stress) and PMS symptoms.

What they found

Most students had normal menstrual cycles and mild or no PMS symptoms. The study did not find a clear relationship between lifestyle and PMS.

What it means for you

This study did not find that lifestyle affects PMS in nursing students. Other studies have found lifestyle can influence PMS, so more research is needed. This was only done at one school, which limits how the results apply elsewhere.
