How Your Menstrual Cycle Can Impact Your Mental Health (PMS, PMDD + PME) - Episode 6

from Peace of Mind · host Kara Cuzzone

Some women experience significant mental health shifts at different phases of their menstrual cycles. I spoke to clinical psychologist Jaclyn Ross, PhD, about the difference between premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), and premenstrual exacerbation (PME) and how to manage mental health symptoms that seem related to your cycle.
