Inhibition of serotonin uptake in rat brain synaptosomes by plasma from patients with premenstrual syndrome.
TLDR
This paper showed that the symptoms of premenstmal syndrome are associated with an attenuation of peripheral serotonergic mechanisms, such as decreased platelet 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake and content, as well as changes in whole blood 5-HT levels.About:

Menstrual cycle and appetite control: implications for weight regulation.
Louise Dye,John E. Blundell +1 more
TL;DR: The premenstrual phase can be considered as a time when women are especially vulnerable to overconsumption, food craving and depression; this is often associated with low serotonin activity.

The role of central serotonergic dysfunction in the aetiology of premenstrual dysphoric disorder: therapeutic implications.
TL;DR: Most of the evidence from baseline studies suggests predominantly a serotonergic rather than a noradrenergic or dopaminergic dysfunction in PMDD, which is more consistent than those of other neuroendocrine abnormalities for example.

Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
TL;DR: Premenstrual dysphoric disorder is characterized by mood, appetite, energy, and cognitive changes that occur during the late luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and remit shortly after the onset of menses.

TL;DR: Typically, premenstrual syndrome has been defined by symptoms, including irritability, tension, fatigue, dysphoria, distractibility, impaired motor coordination, changes in eating and sleeping, and libido, which occur in the late luteal phase and remit after the beginning of menstruation.

Whole-blood serotonin in premenstrual syndrome.
TL;DR: Serotonin levels of premenstrual syndrome subjects were significantly lower during the last ten days of the menstrual cycle, and levels of serum estradiol and progesterone were also significantly lower.

Serotonin Levels and Platelet Uptake during Premenstrual Tension
TL;DR: Premenstrual tension was studied in 16 females, using both biochemical and psychological parameters during the pre- and postmenstrual phases, and there were correlations between the kinetic parameters of 5-HT uptake and some of the Moos symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alteration of platelet serotonergic mechanisms and monoamine oxidase activity in premenstrual syndrome.
TL;DR: The results suggest that PMS symptomatology may be related to alterations in serotonergic neuronal mechanisms and platelet monoamine oxidase activity was significantly lower postmenstrually in PMS patients compared to the premenstrual phase.
