382: What Is Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder + How Awful Hormonal PMDD Symptoms Are Linked To Histamine Intolerance w/ Dr. Jolene Brighten

Do you feel like your PMS is “on steroids”? Maybe it shows up with intense mood swings or what feels like “period flu” every month. If so, you could be dealing with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)—a condition that affects 5–8% of women, yet is often brushed off by conventional doctors.PMDD symptoms can be incredibly disruptive, especially if you’re also struggling with histamine intolerance. In fact, there’s a growing connection between PMDD and histamine issues—something that can be even more dysregulating for neurodivergent women.To unpack this and explore natural PMDD treatments and relief strategies, I’m joined by Dr. Jolene Brighten—renowned hormone expert, nutrition scientist, and bestselling author of Beyond the Pill and Is This Normal. With her background in naturopathic endocrinology and passion for root-cause healing, Dr. Brighten is here to help you better understand your hormones and take back control of your health.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Dr. Jolene Brighten - http://www.drbrighten.com/- Book: Is This Normal? by Dr. Jolene Brighten - https://amzn.to/3gNiHIB- Beat Histamine Intolerance Masterclass - https://www.skinterrupt.com/histamineresetmc-pod - Join in the conversation with Jennifer at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://www.skinterrupt.com/stopmyrashes-pod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!
