Multiple pairwise comparison tests revealed that there was significant increase in functional system score in premenstrual period (p=0.006), and also in fatigue severity scale in pre-menstrual period (p=0.0001). Numerical rating scale showed that there was significant increase in pain intensity (p=0.0001) which became more prominent in pre-menstrual period. Conclusion.
