Background: Menstrual problems are highly prevalence, especially among young adults. However, the signs and symptoms of menstrual disorders are typically disregarded. Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of menstrual problem, especially premenstrual symptoms and menstrual syndromes, and treatment seeking behavior. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study on 261 female college students. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Questions were about menstrual patterns, premenstrual symptoms, menstrual syndrome, its severity and treatment seeking behavior.  Information about stress was collected using a perceived stress scale questionnaire.  Results: Prevalence of premenstrual symptoms was 70.1%, and that of dysmenorrhea was 93.6%. Mothers were the main source (65%) of information about reproductive heatlh. Mood-swings/irritability (88.1%) and dysmenorrhea (93.5%) were most common of premenstrual symptoms and menstrual syndrome, respectively. Half of participants experienced severe dysmenorrhea (53.2%), however medical seeking behavior during menstrual period was poor (18.8%).  Participants did not seek treatment because their menstrual problems did not interfere with their daily activities (80.2%). Conclusion: Premenstrual symptoms and menstrual syndrome are highly prevalent among college students of UIN Jakarta. As mothers were the main source of information regarding reproductive health, health professionals should involve mothers in discussions about menstrual problems and how to deal with them.

Abstract Objective Individuals presenting with concerns of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) report impairment and may seek academic or disability accommodations related to perceived impairment. Problematically, the legal definition of impairment remains poorly understood by clinicians, and there is little consensus regarding credibility of self-reported impairment. Furthermore, many impairments reported by individuals seeking evaluation for ADHD appear to be general and non-specific, but base rates of reports of these impairments in non-treatment seeking populations remain unclear. We examined base rates of impairment associated with ADHD in a sample of non-treatment seeking college students. Method Participants were undergraduate students who completed online surveys (N = 175). Participants who failed measures of validity, reported a past diagnosis of ADHD, or endorsed clinically significant symptoms of ADHD were excluded from analyses (final N = 89). Participants largely identified as white (88.8%) and female (85.4). Participants completed measures of impairment (Barkley Functional Impairment Scale) and ADHD symptoms (Conners’ Adult Attention Rating Scale). Base rates of clinically significant impairment among this sample were analyzed. Results Clinically significant levels of impairment were reported at high levels within the following categories; at home (15.1%), interacting with strangers (13.5%) and friends (20.2%), performing daily self-care (7.9%), and managing health (12.4%). Conclusions Base rates of clinically significant self-reported impairment are high among a non-clinical, non-treatment seeking sample of college students without ADHD symptoms. Results raise questions about the validity of self-reported impairment in diagnostic decision making, suggesting that experiences of difficulty in these areas may be normative among college populations and not specific to ADHD.
