Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between anxiety and premenstrual eating symptoms in premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD).

Methods: A total of 49 women in the late luteal phase participated in this study. The psychiatric symptoms were assessed by Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, State Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Menstrual Distress Questionnaire. Eating symptoms were assessed using the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire and cocoa intake experiment. Estradiol, progesterone, and leptin were collected through venous blood.

Results: Participants with PMDD (n=25) showed a higher level of depression (p<0.001), trait anxiety (p=0.012), restrained eating symptoms (p=0.039), and leptin (p=0.015). Among PMDD patients in the luteal phase, trait anxiety showed correlation with emotional eating (p=0.023), alcohol (p=0.022), and unrestricted intake of cocoa (p=0.001).

Conclusion: Our data suggest that PMDD subjects showed higher trait anxiety, depression, and difficulty in eating behavior control. Trait anxiety plays an important role in increased and uncontrolled eating symptoms during the premenstrual period and chronic course of PMDD.
