Abstract

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) affects 3- 8% of women in the reproductive age group, while premenstrual syndrome (PMS) has a prevalence of 20-30%. PMS and PMDD are associated with significant reduction in quality of life and decreased work productivity. This review examines the current literature regarding the epidemiology, aetiology, diagnosis, burden of illness and management of PMDD and PMS.
