I’m new here too and just received my PMDD diagnosis

Hello! I was just diagnosed with Pmdd last week! But I’ve been struggling for years now 😬

I've had severe cramps and migraines the full week of my period since I was a teen, depression and manic sorta energy level changes the week before it starts, and half the gynos I've been to have never even heard of this condition so I feel your pain!

I've been diagnosed with PMDD for years and am struggling with the mood symptoms this week. It's hard to find doctors who are knowledgeable and willing to help you treat it. Let me know if you'd like to chat about anything.

It feels like it's ruining my life to an extent. I can't accept that every two weeks, for the rest of my life basically, is going to be like this.

There has to be a way to correct this or improve it. Maybe if the hormonal aspect were better understood from an entire cycles point of view instead of just a single day, we could get a better understanding or treatment? I feel like the fog is keeping me from solving the science.

I feel like I have PMDD. I have looked it up and have almost all the symptoms. I brought it up to my gyno and he basically said that I didn't have that just because I don't have suicidal thoughts
