Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a prevalent health challenge among middle-aged females that significantly impairs their quality of life. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the prevalence of PMS and its correlation with socio-demographic factors, addressing a critical research gap in this specific age demographic. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and the Premenstrual Symptoms Screening Tool (PSST) to assess the impact of symptoms on social and functional health. This research advances knowledge by identifying specific demographic drivers of PMS and validating the PSST score as a vital diagnostic tool for mid-life hormonal health. Implementing these early screening strategies in healthcare facilities is essential for providing targeted interventions that substantially improve patient quality of life.
