Di Indonesia angka prevalensinya mencapai 85%, sekitar 60-70% dari premenstrual syndrome, yaitu remaja. Sebanyak 20-40% wanita usia subur mengalami beberapa gejala sindrom pramenstruasi (PMS) yang cukup parah sangat mengganggu kehidupan mereka.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara pengetahuan terhadap kejadian premenstrual syndrome dimana nilai p = 0,003, dan menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara tingkat kecemasan dengan kejadian premenstrual syndrome dimana nilai p = 0,000.
