Becoming a PMDD Advocate

I was ecstatic when I was selected as a member of the Patient Insight Panel. I felt compelled to use my experience to advance the knowledge on PMDD. But I would be lying if I said that any part of it was easy. Truly it was one of the most emotional experiences of my life and some of the most impactful work I have ever contributed to

No More Shame & Secrecy

For a very long time, my PMDD experience was full of shame and secrecy. Very few knew how I suffered. I could not explain to others “what was wrong with me” because I didn’t know, and at that time, I couldn’t possibly put into words the depths of torture my own mind put me through monthly. In December 2020, I was finally diagnosed and since then my involvement in the world of premenstrual disorders has ballooned!
