Understanding Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD): Symptoms, Cause, and Treatment Options

Hi everyone! I hope you’re doing well and are having a flare free day. Todays video is all about Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder - or also known as PMDD. It’s way more common than we think - yet often under diagnosed and misunderstood. In this video, I talk about what PMDD is, how it’s similar / different than PMS, symptoms of PMDD, treatment options, and more.

I’d be curious to hear in the comments if you’ve ever heard about PMDD. If you have PMDD or know someone with it, feel free to share what supported you in your journey as I’m sure it’ll help someone else in their journey to find answers and support!

As always, talk with your doctor or medical provider if you have new or recurring symptoms or feel like PMDD is something you may be experiencing.
