Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)

PMDD is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome that causes intense emotional, physical, and behavioral symptoms in the days leading up to menstruation. These symptoms can affect mood, relationships, and daily functioning.

At Progressive Psychiatry & Wellness, we take PMDD seriously, offering compassionate, evidence-based care to ease both the physical and emotional burden. Treatment may include targeted medication, nutritional support, and lifestyle guidance, alongside holistic approaches such as mindfulness and stress management techniques. We understand how isolating PMDD can feel, which is why we create a supportive environment where you feel validated and empowered.

Our goal is to help you regulate mood swings, reduce physical discomfort, and reclaim stability during your cycle. With the right treatment, it is possible to manage PMDD effectively and live with more balance, resilience, and control over your daily life.
