Amaç: Bu çalışma, ebelik öğrencilerinin premenstrual sendrom yaşama sıklığı ile algıladıkları stres düzeyi arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.Yöntem: Çalışma, 17-21 Şubat 2020 tarihleri arasında, Çukurova Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi Ebelik Bölümü’nde 2., 3. ve 4. sınıfta öğrenim gören 151 öğrenci ile yapılmıştır.

Veri analizinde, SPSS 22 paket programı kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan ebelik öğrencilerinin %76,2’sinin PMS yaşadığı belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin en sık yaşadığı semptom depresif semptomlar olurken, en seyrek yaşadığı semptom ise ağrı semptomları olmuştur. Öğrencilerin Algılanan Stres Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamasının 34,19±5,87 olduğu belirlenmiştir. Premenstrual sendrom yaşama sıklığı ile algılanan stres düzeyi arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılan korelasyon analizi sonucunda, premenstrual sendrom yaşama sıklığı ile algılanan stres düzeyi arasında pozitif yönlü bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Sonuç ve Öneriler: Ebelik öğrencilerinin premenstrual sendrom yaşama sıklığı arttıkça algıladıkları stres düzeyleri artmaktadır. Öğrencilerin bu dönem daha rahat geçirebilmesi için; duş alma, sıcak uygulama, zihni rahatlatıcı teknikler, sosyal destek ve aktivite, dinlenme, sağlıklı beslenme, egzersiz vb. gibi uygulamalar önerilmektedir.
