phone meds review with Nice Helpful Doctor™️:
me: so I've been really struggling both mentally & physically, mostly with #endo(?) pain, so I was wondering whether there was any chance of going back on the duoloxetine, given I was originally prescribed that for #PMDD?
doc: when did we take you off >
gentle reminder to us:
our body & nervous system are literally riding a hormone roller coaster while also managing chronic pain & a system. that’s a lot for one small human spaceship to steer 🚀
curious how other #systems cope with this? im asking for surgical options. #PMDD #Cramps #OSDD #DID
Resting up after excision of deep pelvic #endometriosis & been sent the new film... Here's a Q ladies, are you also late or self diagnosed #ADHD / #autistic? I've got #PMDD as well, like endo linked to ovulation. We know numerous soft tissue related co-occuring conditions w neurodivergence
ahhh yes the daily wearing off of our antihistamine
not sayin everyone with autism has MCAS… but we are saying many might recognize the symptoms 🫶🏻
(anecdotally, if ur autistic n have #PMDD - famotidine (pepcid) might help)
(the lab scientist in us is oversimplifying but… data don’t lie)
Morning all, I'm still looking for (anonymous) contributions to my upcoming book on #PMDD.
If you have experience of PMDD, pls consider filling this in (or even just part of it) - keen to represent as many experiences as possible. Thanks so much.

Buttons up. 🍄🟫😜😜
(I’m currently experimenting with microdosing to see if it helps with my PMDD/BPD symptoms, triggers and splits)

If you're neurodivergent, your brain is very likely to be hormonally sensitive. The changes in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle can exacerbate symptoms and, in ADHD, medication adjustment may be needed.

If you have any advice for me that doesn't involve birth control (can't take it for other medical reasons) or getting rid of my organs, I'm at the point where I'll be trying anything. Seriously 😂 #pmdd #pmds #pms
Dr Lynsay Matthews (UWS) discusses the "debilitating impact" of #PMDD with STV News. 🧠
She is helping launch the UK's first dedicated research agenda into the condition.

If you experience, or have experienced, premenstrual mood changes, please consider filling in the questionnaire below (or even just part of it). It is completely anonymous. All/any input much appreciated.

1 in 3 people with PMDD attempt suicide.
My first Substack post is a call to arms: a plea to my medical colleagues to connect the dots between hormonal and mental health.
If we do this we can save lives.

If you have #PMDD and live in/around #Edinburgh, a local in-person support group has been set up by Dana (whose story is in the Edinburgh Live article below). The next meeting is 25th Feb, 6-8pm. Free to attend.
See here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/edinburgh-... for more information.
If you have #PMDD, please see below to take part in a study to:
🧠 Investigate whether PMDD affects cognition
😣 Observe whether perceived stress differs between those with or without PMDD
A picture of a white chick with her left arm out to point and her right arm wrapped around a white guy at a festival with the text: “I'm going to try to break up with you every month before my period because I have a reproductive mood disorder called PMDD.”
This is the stupidest symptom of #PMDD
Are you in a relationship with someone who menstruates? If so, I want to hear from you to find out more about how #PMDD and other menstrual symptoms affect the relationship.
Please follow this link for more info, or to take part: durhamuniversity.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
Finally. But better late than never.
10. What is the relationship between hormonal fluctuations and mental health across the reproductive lifespan - from #PMS and #PMDD to menopause?
They're also looking at how hormonal cycles affect drug metabolism. Hugely important & nearly always overlooked.
A 2025 systematic review & meta-analyses examining link between trauma and #PMS & #PMDD by the team @stresslabvienna.bsky.social led by @celinebencker.bsky.social
Helpful to have confirmed in research what those of us in clinical practice see on a daily basis. We now need to understand the 'why'.

I'm looking for anonymous case studies for my upcoming book 'The Hormone Sensitive Brain'. I am keen to gather as many experiences as possible and have pulled together a questionnaire: drhannahshort.co.uk/the-hormone-...
If anyone would like to complete/share it, I'd be so grateful. Thank you #PMDD
oooh having a favorite #PMDD lunch: (air) FRIED EVERYTHING
MORE TATOR TOTS N NUGGETS!!

Zephyr: Nothing to see here. Just a dude, on day 2 of his period, sobbing over /literally nothing/.
I may have a small army of 50+ people living in my head, but PMDD can still kick our combined ass. Color me humbled.

Being a BPD & PMDD girly means that these two monsters get to dance together every month.
I’ve spoken with multiple doctors & tried different medication regimen, and it seems like some months nothing matters I still turned into a monster for a week.

I asked Gemini for advice for PMDD thinking it was maybe more accurate. Instead it dismissively waved me off because I seem to survived each month anyway. Charming.
