Work w/your doctor: Pmdd is a more severe variant of pms, and you can work with your doctor on a regimen to manage your symptoms. S/he may recommend ssri antidepressants because they've been shown to be effective in many women. Also, the herb chasteberry (fruit of the vitex agnus castus plant) may help, but more research needed. Calcium, magnesium, and vitamin b6 may help too. These are only a few possibilities.
