Abstract
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a common and often debilitating
condition affecting a significant number of adolescent girls, characterized by
a range of physical and emotional symptoms that recur in the luteal phase of
the menstrual cycle. While pharmacological interventions are available, their
use in this age group may be associated with side effects and long-term
concerns. This article explores the critical role of non-pharmacological coping
strategies in managing PMS among adolescent girls. We delve into various
evidence-based approaches, including dietary modifications, regular physical
activity, stress-reduction techniques, and the importance of sleep hygiene. We
discuss how these strategies empower adolescents to take an active role in
their health, promoting a holistic and sustainable approach to managing PMS
symptoms. By highlighting the efficacy of these non-pharmacological methods,
this paper aims to provide a comprehensive resource for healthcare providers,
parents, and educators to guide and support adolescent girls in navigating the
challenges of their menstrual cycle, thereby improving their overall quality of
life and well-being.
