ABSTRACT

Estudos epidemiológicos demonstram que até 80 por cento das mulheres apresentam sintomas físicos e/ou psíquicos no período pré-menstrual e que cerca de 3 por cento a 11 por cento os apresentam de maneira severa, havendo prejuízos sociais, familiares ou profissionais, o que caracteriza o transtorno disfórico pré-menstrual (TDPM). O TDPM apresenta sintomas que aparecem na semana que antecede a menstruação, cessando nos primeiros dias após o início desta. Diversas teorias têm sido propostas para justificar a sua etiologia. Fatores hormonais, psicológicos e ambientais parecem estar envolvidos; no entanto, ainda não há conclusões precisas que justifiquem essa patologia.


Epidemiologic studies show that till 80 percent of the women have physical and/or psychiatric symptoms in the premenstrual period, and in about 3 percent till 11 percent of them, this disease has serious consequences, causing familiar or professional damages; characterizing the premenstrual dysphoric disorder. The premenstrual dysphoric symptoms happen in the week before menstruation, stopping in the first days after menstruation beginning. A lot of theories have been proposed to justify its etiology. Hormonals, psychological and environmental factors seem to be involved, however there are no strict conclusions to justify this pathology.
