The resolution highlights the significance of PMDD, a severe hormone-based mood disorder that affects women during the premenstrual phase of their menstrual cycle, causing a range of debilitating symptoms such as mood swings, irritability, and depression. It emphasizes the impact of PMDD on daily life, mental health, and overall well-being, noting that many women experience misdiagnoses and stigma, which can lead to delayed care and increased risk of negative outcomes.
The resolution aims to raise awareness about PMDD, encourage education on the disorder, and promote further research into menstrual and hormone-related mood disorders. It calls on all Texans to learn more about PMDD and support those affected by it, recognizing the need for better understanding and management of this serious health issue.
