Hello I am a fourth year medical student working on the wikimedicine project. Here are the changes I plan to undertake for the article Premenstrual dysphoric disorder:
Lead section
Better definition that severe PMS Clearer language Clearer language around suicidal ideation in PMDD Define symptoms earlier in a clear way Link between postpartum depression and PMDD? Info box
Add link other articles where appropriate Make onset, DDx, and causes clearer Cut surgery as treatment
Signs and symptoms
Write clear symptoms with cited guidelines for PMS PMDD Separate physical and emotional symptoms Use DSM-5 to decide to keep or eliminate comment about ISPMD
Associated conditions
Review citation to check comorbidities associated with PMDD Axis 1 is an outdated term – delete Suicide as a “related condition doesn’t make sense; risk of suicide should be its own section Figure out the claim proposed by reference 16 in the last sentence and reword or delete
Cause
Lots of repeated information and confusing language present throughout this section Review sources/find new sources to present a simple explanation of the proposed cause of PMDD
Genetic factors
Reference 27 seems to justify primary research and highlight new research that might conclude an isolated gene; this is not a good source for citation in this format Look for strong supporting evidence for established genetic predisposition to PMDD or cut the section There is also a lot of information suggesting associated conditions that should be moved to that section
Relationship to pregnancy
Change section to relationship to pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause Review sources and validate claims Reword paragraph about menopause to reflect the topic of PMDD not climacteric depression
Diagnosis
Organize the symptom scales better Cut the last two sentences; they are irrelevant to diagnosis DSM-5 & ICD 11
Make sure these aren’t directly copied Clarify for ease of use for non-medical viewers
Other
Cut this section
Differential diagnosis
Find a citation for the first paragraph “Mood disorders” is used synonymously with psychiatric disorders in general. Clarify and eliminate repeated information from previous sections Menopausal transition seems unnecessary here. Clarify and include PMS Thyroid disorders rephrase to organic cause add other underlying medical causes for depression/masking symptoms for PMDD Treatment
Review sources for medication and psychotherapy Add statement on SSRI and SNRI efficacy in pregnancy/impact on fertility Cut surgery – this is never indicated for treatment of PMDD
Epidemiology
More info if possible Age PMS incidence is listed not PMDD – why?
History
Review for clarity and validity of sources
additional sections
Add sections on risk factors, suicidality, and delineating PMS; Severe PMS; and PMDD

In "Adjunctive and alternative treatments" suddenly symptoms of pms are mentioned. Should this not be pmdd? 2A02:A45F:578E:1:78CB:12E4:9054:821D ( talk) 20:32, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
