If a woman has amenorrhea, does she have any symtoms of PMS?

Interesting question! Presumably, no, because no period = no PMS. But it might be interesting to hear with someone who has experienced this personally.

Edited to add: If you personally have amennorhea, you may want to consider genetic testing.

Probably not...PMS is usually brought on by the fluctuation of hormones prior to menstruation. However, I suppose it's still possible to have those fluctuations in hormones and not menstruate. Check with your doctor to be sure.

Never experienced it but it stands to reason that even with no period you could be going thru a cycle and still have PMS. Do you know the reason for your amenorrhea? Surely your hormones are still working.

She can.
"Primary amenorrhea is not considered to have occurred until a girl is beyond age 16, if she has undergone other normal changes that occur during puberty. Primary amenorrhea may occur with or without other signs of puberty."
