Welcome to It's Not JUST A Period!
Joining Alexandra in the studio this week is Phoebe Williams, she shares how her journey with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), led to founding the first ever UK charity for the condition.
Phoebe opens up about her own experience, from the emotional and physical toll of the condition to the frustrating delays and missteps she encountered in the healthcare system. With the average time to receive a PMDD diagnosis being around 12 years, this conversation highlights just how misunderstood and under diagnosed the condition is.
Alexandra and Phoebe explore the wider impact of PMDD on mental health, relationships and careers as well the urgent need for better education around menstrual health. Phoebe shares the mission of the PMDD Project and her hopes for the future of PMDD and those living with it.
Her story is one of resilience and determination, shedding light on the reality of living with PMDD and the importance of building compassionate, informed communities. This is an essential listen for anyone looking to better understand PMDD, challenge the silence around menstrual health, and support those affected by this life altering condition.
*This episode contains discussions of mental health challenges, including suicidal thoughts, which some listeners may find distressing. Please take care while listening, and know that support is available*
