PMS vs PMDD — what's the difference?

PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) affects up to 75% of women to some degree. Symptoms occur in the luteal phase (typically the 1–2 weeks before your period) and resolve once your period starts.

PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) is a more severe form, affecting around 5% of women. It involves significant mood changes — such as severe depression, anxiety, or anger — that meaningfully disrupt daily life. PMDD is a recognised medical condition and is very treatable.

A high score on this tool does not diagnose either condition — but it can be a helpful starting point for a conversation with your GP.

Disclaimer: This is a screening tool only. For diagnosis of PMDD or severe PMS, please consult a healthcare professional.
