Summary
Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) can occur co-morbidly with other axis I disorders, particularly mood and anxiety disorders. The data supporting this diagnostic dilemma are reviewed in terms of methodological comparisons between studies. The point prevalence of the co-occurrence of PMDD and other psychiatric disorders is discussed as well as implications for treatment and further study.
