Sumario:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Body composition and body fat are important in the prevention of chronic diseases in people with premenstrual syndrome. This study was performed to compare the anthropometric and conicity indexes in PMS and healthy people. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was performed on 92 dormitory students living in Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences over 18 years of age in two groups with premenstrual syndrome and healthy subjects. Anthropometric and conicity parameters were measured and compared in two groups. FINDINGS: In this study, 46 (54.8%) patients in the PMS group with an average age of 22.02±1.51 years and 38 (45.2%) in the healthy group with an average age of 21.34±2.32 that there was no significant difference between the two groups in the test (p=0.08). In the PMS group, this disorder was significantly different from that of the healthy group (p=0.0001), and the anger and allergies and anthropometric indices were significantly higher in students with menstrual syndrome than in healthy subjects (see The order of p=0.003, p=0.007, p=0.001, p= 0.02, p= 0.01, p= 0.001), but the two groups did not have a significant difference in terms of conicity. CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that subjects with premenstrual syndrome group had higher anthropometric indices than healthy subjects. But they do not differ in terms of conicity.
