Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) merupakan kumpulan gejala fisik, emosional, dan
perilaku yang terjadi secara siklik sebelum menstruasi dan dapat mengganggu
aktivitas harian perempuan. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) pada remaja dapat
menurunkan kualitas hidup melalui gangguan konsentrasi belajar, peningkatan
absensi sekolah, serta penurunan kesehatan mental dan hubungan sosial. Kondisi ini
penting dikaji karena masa remaja merupakan fase transisi menuju dewasa yang
menentukan kesejahteraan jangka panjang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk
mengetahui hubungan antara PMS dengan kualitas hidup siswi sekolah menengah
atas di Kota Banda Aceh. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain analitik korelasi
dengan pendekatan cross-sectional pada 139 siswi yang dipilih melalui metode
cluster sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner Shortened
Premenstrual Assessment Form (SPAF) untuk menilai PMS dan World Health
Organization Quality of Life–BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) untuk menilai kualitas
hidup, kemudian dianalisis secara univariat dan bivariat dengan uji Chi-Square
untuk menguji hubungan antarvariabel. Seluruh responden (100%) mengalami
PMS, terdiri atas PMS ringan (23,7%), sedang (45,3%), dan berat (30,9%). Terdapat
hubungan yang signifikan antara PMS dan kualitas hidup pada domain fisik (p =
0,001) serta psikologis (p = 0,632), namun tidak dengan domain sosial (p = 0,350)
dan lingkungan (p = 0,878). Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) berhubungan dengan
kualitas hidup remaja, terutama aspek fisik dan psikologis yang berperan penting
dalam masa pertumbuhan. Temuan ini dapat menjadi dasar penguatan edukasi
kesehatan reproduksi remaja serta pengembangan kebijakan yang berorientasi pada
kesejahteraan perempuan dan kesehatan mental remaja

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a collection of physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms that occur cyclically before menstruation and can interfere with women’s daily activities. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) among adolescents can decrease quality of life through impaired learning concentration, increased school absenteeism, as well as decreased mental health and social relationships. This condition is important to study because adolescence is a transitional phase toward adulthood that determines long-term well-being. This study aimed to determine the relationship between PMS and quality of life among female high school students in Banda Aceh City. This research used an analytical correlational design with a cross-sectional approach involving 139 students selected through cluster sampling. Data were collected using the Shortened Premenstrual Assessment Form (SPAF) to assess PMS and the World Health Organization Quality of Life– BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) to assess quality of life, then analyzed using univariate and bivariate methods with the Chi-Square test to examine the relationship between variables. All respondents (100%) experienced PMS, consisting of mild (23.7%), moderate (45.3%), and severe (30.9%) categories. There was a significant relationship between PMS and quality of life in the physical domain (p = 0.001) and psychological domain (p = 0.009), but not in the social (p = 0.350) and environmental (p = 0.878) domains. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is associated with adolescents’ quality of life, particularly in the physical and psychological aspects that play important roles during growth. These findings can serve as a basis for strengthening adolescent reproductive health education and developing policies that focus on women’s well-being and adolescent mental health.
