Premenstrual disorders

1. Premenstrual disorders have no effect on manifest atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in humans (OR 1.12, 95% CI 0.65–1.93).

   “no association was observed between PMDs and either subclinical (n = 1,003) or manifest ASCVD (n = 189)”

1. Premenstrual disorders are associated with vasomotor symptoms in humans.

   “higher prevalences of hypertension (p=0.006) and a history of VMS (p<0.001) relative to women without PMDs.”
