Overview

This study is testing a self-help mental health program that was designed to help people cope with the challenges of living with a premenstrual disorder. Individuals with a premenstrual disorder - either premenstrual dysphoric disorder or premenstrual exacerbation of depression - will track their daily symptoms for two menstrual cycles before they complete the program, throughout the two-cycle program, and for an additional two cycles after accessing the program. This will allow the research team to compare their symptoms before and after accessing the program.
