Key Words	Premenstrual asthma; Definition; Etiology; Risk factors; Treatment
Core Tip	Premenstrual asthma (PMA) refers to the exacerbation of asthma in women of fertile age during the premenstrual phase. Whether or not it is an asthma phenotype, its definition, etiopathogeny and treatment are issues still to be resolved. PMA seems to be a female asthma phenotype despite contradictory results. It can occur at any level of asthma severity and it is usually associated with poorer disease control. Its etiology is not well known, and there is no specific widely recognized treatment. We need new well-designed studies to compare asthmatic women with or without PMA, and good quality clinical trials.
