Premenstrual Disorders Tied to Higher Suicide Risk

A nationwide observational study in Sweden has found that women with premenstrual disorders (PMDs) are more than twice as likely to die by suicide compared to women without PMDs. The study, which followed 67,748 women with PMDs and 406,488 women without PMDs, highlights the need for careful follow-up and suicide prevention strategies for women suffering from these disorders. The research, published in JAMA Network Open, underscores the importance of understanding and addressing the long-term consequences of PMDs on mental health.

Premenstrual Disorders Linked to Increased Risk of Early Menopause, Study Finds

A new study suggests that people with premenstrual disorders (PMDs) such as premenstrual syndrome and premenstrual dysphoric disorder have more than twice the risk of experiencing early menopause. Early menopause, defined as occurring before age 45, is associated with poorer heart, brain, and bone health. The study, which included data from over 3,000 women, highlights the need for better recognition and treatment of PMDs. Further research is needed to understand the biological connection between PMDs and early menopause and to explore potential interventions.
