תקציר	The Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL) is a 29-item self-report instrument designed to assess quality of life in women experiencing menopausal symptoms. Developed by Hilditch and colleagues in 1996, the MENQOL captures four interrelated symptom domains: vasomotor symptoms (hot flushes, night sweats), psychosocial symptoms (mood, stress, anxiety), physical symptoms (fatigue, aches, sleep), and sexual symptoms. It is the primary menopause-specific outcome measure used in hormone replacement therapy trials and menopause research.	The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Questionnaire (PCOSQ) is a 26-item self-report instrument developed to measure quality of life in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Created by Cronin and colleagues in 1998, the PCOSQ is disease-specific, assessing five dimensions uniquely relevant to PCOS: emotional effects, body hair, weight, infertility, and menstrual problems. It enables clinicians and researchers to evaluate the multidimensional impact of PCOS and monitor outcomes of lifestyle, hormonal, and reproductive interventions.	The Premenstrual Symptoms Screening Tool (PSST) is a brief, 19-item self-report questionnaire designed to screen for premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and assess the severity of premenstrual symptoms. Developed by Steiner, Macdougall, and Brown in 2003, the PSST efficiently identifies women with clinically significant cyclical mood and physical symptoms warranting diagnostic evaluation and potential pharmacological or psychological treatment.
