A facebook live [edited] that was recorded on 17th June 2019 for IAPMD with Dr Tory Eisenlohr-Moul, the Chair of the IAPMD Clinical Advisory Board.

In a landmark decision in May 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) added Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Eleventh Revision (ICD-11). PMDD now has its own ICD code (GA34.41), validating PMDD as a legitimate medical diagnosis worldwide.

Join the International Association for Premenstrual Disorders to learn what this means now and for the future of those with PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder). To read the IAPMD position statement on this news:
