Abstract/Text
Importance: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is characterized by physical and psychological symptoms in the luteal phase. Leptin can influence PMS as it acts on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate data in the literature about the profile of plasma leptin in women with PMS. Evidence Acquisition: We performed a search of databases using both descriptors. Three studies were identified. They included 181 participants. Two of these studies found higher leptin levels in women with PMS. Results: Conflicting results were found regarding the leptin levels in the luteal phase and the correlation between leptin, estradiol, and progesterone levels. Conclusions and Relevance: Leptin could have a role in the pathophysiology of PMS and indicate degree of severity of PMS. Future studies on the role of leptin in PMS are needed.
