What is Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)?

PMDD is a serious medical condition that affects women in the days or weeks before their menstrual cycle. Unlike common PMS, PMDD causes intense mood swings, irritability, anxiety, depression, and physical symptoms that can disrupt a woman’s normal routine.In simpler terms, PMDD is like PMS, but more intense—making it hard to concentrate, work, or even maintain relationships.

Causes of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)

While the exact cause of PMDD is still being studied, it’s believed to be linked to hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle and how these hormones affect brain chemicals like serotonin. Other possible causes include:

  • Sensitivity to hormonal fluctuations
  • Genetic predisposition
  • History of anxiety or depression
  • Stress or lifestyle-related triggers

Symptoms of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)

The premenstrual dysphoric disorder symptoms usually appear one to two weeks before menstruation and fade once the period begins. Common symptoms include

  • Severe mood swings or irritability
  • Depression or feelings of hopelessness
  • Anxiety or tension
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Fatigue or low energy
  • Changes in sleep patterns (insomnia or excessive sleep)
  • Food cravings or appetite changes
  • Bloating, breast tenderness, or joint/muscle pain

If these symptoms significantly impact your day-to-day life, it’s time to seek professional help.
