- Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a condition in which a woman has severe depression symptoms, irritability, and tension before menstruation. The symptoms of PMDD are more severe than those seen with premenstrual syndrome (PMS).PMS refers to a wide range of physical or emotional symptoms that typically occur about 5 to 11 days before a woman starts her monthly menstrual cycle. The symptoms usually stop when or shortly after her period begins
- The causes of PMS and PMDD have not been found.PMDD symptoms disappear if the ovaries are removed or not functioning (e.g., menopause). Current theories suggest that normal ovarian function may trigger changes in brain chemistry in women predisposed to PMDD. One brain chemical that may be especially important is serotonin, a neurotransmitter. The serotonin system has a close relationship to the female hormones, and imbalances of the serotonin system may play an important role in causing PMDD
- PMDD affects roughly 8% of women during the years when they are having menstrual periods.People sometimes wonder if PMDD is inherited. Genetics may play a role. Studies have shown that identical twins are more likely to share the disorder (93%) than non-identical twins (fraternal) (44%), and daughters of mothers with PMDD are more likely to have it themselves. However, no specific genes have been identified to account for PMDD. Perhaps it is best to simply say that there may be a genetic predisposition to developing the disorder.
- Other factors that may play a role include: Alcohol abuse Being overweight Drinking large amounts of caffeine Having a mother with a history of the disorder Lack of exercise
- The symptoms of PMDD are similar to those of PMS. However, they are generally more severe and debilitating and include a least one mood-related symptom. Symptoms occur during the week just before menstrual bleeding and usually improve within a few days after the period starts.Five or more of the following symptoms must be present to diagnose PMDD, including one mood-related symptom:Disinterest in ADL’sFatigue or low energySuicidal thoughts Binge eatingPanic attacksHeadaches and/or joint or muscle painPersistent irritability SleeplessnessTrouble concentrating
- No physical examination or lab tests can diagnose PMDD. A complete history, physical examination (including a pelvic exam), and psychiatric evaluation should be done to rule out other conditions.Keeping a calendar or diary of symptoms can help women identify the most troublesome symptoms and the times when they are likely to occur. This information may help the health care provider diagnose PMDD and determine the best treatment.

- PMDD symptoms may be severe enough to interfere with a woman's daily life. Women with depression may have worse symptoms during the second half of their cycle and may need changes in their medication. It is almost never the right dose at the start.As many as 10% of women who report PMS symptoms, especially those with PMDD, have had suicidal thoughts. Suicide in women with depression is much more likely to occur during the second half of the menstrual cycle.PMDD may be associated with eating disorders and smoking.
- After proper diagnosis and treatment, most women with PMDD find that their symptoms go away or drop to tolerable levels
