Özet: Objective: In this study, it was aimed to compare athletes and sedentary students in terms of premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea. Methods: This is a descriptive study. The study sample consisted of 341 students. The study was carried out at Pysical Education and Sports College and Nursing Department of Health College of a university between the 1st and the 15th of May, 2016. The data were collected by using an Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale and Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS). Results: It was determined that sedentary and the athlete students showed similar characteristics in terms of weight, marital status and economic status but differed in terms of age and height average. Dysmenorrhea and premenstrual syndrome frequency were found to be high in both sedentary and athlete students (92.3%, 74.6%, 92.5%, 72.7%, respectively). It was found out that the mean PMSS score of the sedentary students was 118.00 ± 40.20, and the mean PMSS score of the athletes was 120.93 ± 40.76 and it was determined that the difference between the mean scores of these two groups was not significant (p>0.05). It was found out that dysmenorrhea pain score was 5.54±2.32 in sedentary students and 6.15 ± 2.85 in athlete students and it was determined that this difference between the groups was significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that dysmenorrhea pain score was higher in athletes. It was seen that PMSS scores of the two groups were similar.
