PMS and PMDD don't always behave the way medical textbooks say they should. Some women's premenstrual symptoms last beyond the onset of their period, as this study shows. But we've met women who got their PMS only at the time of ovulation; women whose symptoms last almost all month long; and other variations that would make most medical doctors conclude that it is not PMDD or PMS. We hope the current study results in more doctors listening more closely to what women are actually saying and experiencing, rather than always assuming the medical textbooks are infallible.
