# How does PMS differ between younger women and older women?

The study compared emotional status, nerve system function, and pain in women aged 16-25 with women aged 30-38 and found different clinical features in each age group.

 Early or limited evidence

72 women aged 16-25 with PMS and 51 women aged 30-38 with PMS

## What they did

Compared emotional status, nerve system function, and pain in two age groups of women with PMS: younger women (aged 16-25) and middle-aged women (aged 30-38).

## What they found

Different clinical features were found in each age group that could guide age-specific treatments for PMS.

## What it means for you

Women at different ages may experience PMS differently and may need different treatment approaches. The study focused on women in two specific age groups, so findings may not apply to all women with PMS.
