7Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
Premenstrual dysphoric disorder is a serious type of premenstrual syndrome. People with this condition can have both psychological and physical symptoms. However, most of them are psychological and tend to be more serious than those related to premenstrual syndrome. For instance, some people can feel emotional a few days before the period. Sadness and depression can also occur and affect their daily lives. Other typical signs include headaches, breast tenderness, bloating, cramps, muscle, and joint pain, anger, irritability, despair, sadness, lethargy, anxiety, panic attacks, eating disorder, extreme mood changes, sleep issues, and trouble focusing. Hormonal changes are the main trigger of premenstrual dysphoric disorder. It often occurs after ovulation. [7]
