| Summary: | Background. Approximately 75-80% of women on reproductive age
reported having premenstrual syndrome (PMS). The imbalance between estrogen
and progesterone becomes a major risk factor of premenstrual syndrome. One of
the symptoms of PMS is the desire to eat sweet foods. Zinc deficiency is often
found in women with premenstrual syndrome and may affect the decrease in taste
sensitivity. Purpose. To determine the correlations between serum zinc levels and
sweet taste sensitivity in women with premenstrual syndrome Method. This type of
research is an experimental study. The sample was selected by simple random
sampling of 7 peoples who were selected based on criteria, one group consist of
women with premenstrual syndrome and another one was normal women (no
experience of premenstrual syndrome). Research done in luteal phase of the
menstrual cycle. Result. Based on the results of statistical tests, showed that there
was no differences of serum zinc levels between the group tested shown with
significance value of 0.362 (p> 0.005); there was no differences in the sensitivity
of sweet taste between the group tested with significance value 0,079 (p> 0.05);
also there was no correlations between sweet taste sensitivity and serum zinc
levels shown with significance value of 0,340 (p> 0.005). Conclusion. There is
no differences in sweet taste sensitivity between the group tested; there is no
differences in serum zinc levels between the group tested; also there is no
correlations between sweet taste sensitivity and serum zinc levels.
