Purpose This study was conducted to define the relationship of experiencing premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and dysmenorrhea with the personality structure of women. Design and Methods The sample of this descriptive relation-seeker-type study comprised 353 women. Data were collected using the PMS Scale, Quick Big Five Personality Test, and The Questionnaire Form between 1 April and 31 August 2019 in a city in the Mediterranean region in Turkey. Findings There was a weak negative-biased correlation between PMS and extraversion, a very weak negative-biased correlation between PMS and conscientiousness, a moderate negative-biased correlation between PMS and neuroticism, and a very weak positive-biased significant correlation between PMS and openness (P < .05). Practice Implications These data suggest that women who are introverted, have weak self-confidence, tend to have negative feelings such as anxiety, depression, and anger, and have weak coping skills are at risk for experiencing PMS.
