PMDD Treatment

Meaning

PMDD Treatment refers to the clinical management strategies for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder, a severe and debilitating mood disorder characterized by extreme emotional and physical symptoms that predictably occur in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Treatment protocols aim to alleviate the cyclical distress and functional impairment caused by the disorder. A comprehensive approach often involves selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and sometimes hormonal interventions to suppress ovulation and stabilize neuroendocrine signaling. The goal is to restore quality of life and functional capacity during the premenstrual phase.
