Abstract

Nine women who had undergone hysterectomy and oophorectomy and who previously suffered from severe premenstrual syndrome (PMS) were given estrogen and progesterone in a naturalistic single-blind paradigm. The 13-item Beck Depression Inventory, Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory, Menstrual Distress Questionnaire and the Daily Ratings Form of the Premenstrual Assessment Form were all given daily. Estradiol and progesterone concentrations were estimated. When results from all subjects were considered together, these measures were not correlated with hormonal status. However, individual subjects showed correlations between some symptom scores and serum progesterone concentrations. We conclude that women diagnosed as having PMS do not respond in a uniform fashion to ovarian hormones. Further quantitative studies are needed to relate these individual differences to the syndrome of PMS.
