The Effect of Mindfulness-Based Healthy Living Behaviors Training on Premenstrual Syndrome Symptoms and Quality of Life
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating mindfulness group and control group for Mindfulness and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 114 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is an important health problem that negatively affects women's quality of life by reducing their daily activities, sleep quality, cognitive functioning, interpersonal relationships, academic performance, work and school attendance. Studies show that PMS is associated with unhealthy life behaviors and that PMS can be reduced through the development of healthy life behaviors. Midwives can benefit from mindfulness-based programs while providing quality health care services to develop a healthy lifestyle in the prevention and treatment of PMS in women. In the literature, there is no study examining the effectiveness of mindfulness-based healthy life behaviors training on PMS. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first study to examine the effect of a mindfulness-based healthy life behaviors training program on premenstrual syndrome symptoms and quality of life.
