Summary: This study investigated the impact of childhood adversity on mood and stress appraisal in women with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), finding that childhood adversity may have independent deteriorating effects on mood worsening and stress appraisal in PMDD patients. The observed cortisol cyclicity in women with higher childhood adversity may suggest different neuroendocrine subtypes of PMDD related to childhood trauma and warrants further research.

Summary: The findings of a clinical follow-up feasibility study suggest that treatment with nomegestrol acetate/17-beta estradiol is acceptable and effective in improving mood symptoms in PMDD patients. The majority of women reported a positive mood response, high adherence to the medication, and minimal side effects. Further research, such as a randomized controlled trial, is needed to confirm these results and explore the impact of this treatment on mood in PMDD.

Summary: The study found that fatigue, depressed mood, feeling overwhelmed, anxiety/tension, and decreased interest in everyday activities were the best predictors of PMS. However, PSST over-diagnosed PMS/PMDD in the depressed group but not in the group of women without PMS/PMDD. Clinicians should be aware that a retrospective diagnosis with PSST can be more sensitive to mood disorders and cycle phases than a prospective diagnosis with a daily symptoms calendar.
