A compilation of 26 articles from multidisciplinary research on menstruation, divided into four parts. The first part focuses on premenstrual syndrome: Guidelines for increasing consensus in PMS research, discoveries related to PMS diagnosis, and theories and evidence on its causative factors. The second part addresses the physical and psychological changes that occur during the menstrual cycle, taking into account changing social interactions and personality variables. Two chapters explore aspects of sexual change during the cycle, one in women and the other in non-human primates. The third part deals with menopause: the menopausal experience of women from different cultures and ethnicities (Greek, Mayan Indians, and in the United States, Hispanic and African Americans); the different perspectives on menopause held by gynecologists and patients; the development of attitude measures toward menopause; and the changes in menstrual patterns in women approaching menopause. The fourth part, especially multidisciplinary, presents several chapters that recognize that menstrual phenomena are not solely biological but are also interrelated with social, environmental, historical, and political aspects.
