What is PMDD ?

PMDD stands for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, a cyclical, hormone-based mood disorder that affects an estimated 5% of people with ovaries.

Unlike PMS, PMDD causes severe emotional, mental, and physical symptoms, including (but not limited to):

◉ Depression
◉ Anxiety
◉ Extreme fatigue
◉ Irritability
◉ Brain fog
◉ And suicidal ideation.

These symptoms occur most often in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle (7-14 days before a period starts) and can dramatically disrupt a person’s career, relationships, social life, and mental health.

People in the UK have PMDD
Will experience suicidal ideation
Will self-harm
Will attempt suicide
