More than typical PMS
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a collection of physical, psychological, and emotional symptoms related to a woman's menstrual cycle. About 80% of woman who are old enough to to bear children suffer from some symptoms of PMS.
For some women with PMS, the symptoms are so severe that they are considered disabling. This form of PMS has its own psychiatric designation: Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). It is estimated that 3-8% of menstruating women suffer from PMDD.
Symptoms of PMDD surface between ovulation and menstruation, and disappear within a few days after the onset of the womans period. Many of these symptoms can be disabling.
PMDD-Community was created with the sole purpose of providing education and support to those who suffer from Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) as well as support for people who care about someone who suffers from this disorder.
