CONT

La plupart des femmes «sentent» venir leurs règles, à un ensemble de sensations difficiles à définir; le syndrome prémenstruel n'est que l'exagération de ce molimen cataménial physiologique, qui ne devient pathologique que lorsque sa sévérité est suffisante pour que la patiente vienne demander un soulagement.

OBS

Molimen cataménial : la seule expression encore employée en gynécologie.
