Beyond PMS: Demystifying PMDD
Description
We’ve all heard of PMS — but what about PMDD? In this episode, we pull back the curtain on Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, a severe and often misunderstood condition that can have a huge impact on daily life.
From what PMDD actually is (and why it’s not just “bad PMS”), to how it’s diagnosed, who can treat it, and the treatment options available, we explore the realities behind the headlines and the stereotypes. We also tackle some of the most common questions people have — from whether heightened senses or insomnia are “normal” symptoms, to how friends, family, and even parents can best offer support.
Whether you’ve just heard of PMDD for the first time, suspect you might have it, or want to better support someone who does, this is your starting point for understanding the condition without the confusion or the myths.
