Anna Cooper, co-founder of the Menstrual Health Project, and Dr Rebeccah Tomlinson joined us to answer questions from the Sunflower community about Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD).
In addition to explaining the differences between PMDD and PMS/PMT, they advised on how to seek support and discussed how important it is to track one's cycle.
Questions from the community:
1. What are the common symptoms of PMDD?
2. What’s the tipping point where PMS becomes PMDD?
3. How do people cope with PMDD / what accommodations do people give themselves?
4. Is there a possibility that the symptoms get less severe or even completely stop by itself?
