Episode 18: Perimenopause and PMDD

For some women with PMDD, it can get worse as they move into and through perimenopause. And for some women without PMDD, their PMS can start to present more like PMDD and it may be something to address. 

In this episode, I discuss: 

• What PMDD is and go into detail about the particular set of symptoms that characterise it and help doctors to diagnose it 
• How PMDD differs from PMS
• Various potential mechanisms that might underlie PMDD
• Natural ways to manage it if you have received a diagnosis from your GP (whether you are choosing to use conventional medication or not)
