经前焦虑症(PMDD)已被纳入1994年第4版《精神疾病诊断和统计手册》附录中,作为一种情绪障碍的正式诊断。随之而来的关键关注导致了对这一被忽视的妇女健康问题的研究生产率和临床认知度的提高。十年后,本文将回顾目前有关PMDD的文献,重点是PMDD的患病率、生物心理社会病因、正式DSM诊断的发展历史以及围绕当前PMDD分类的争议。作者得出结论,PMDD是一个独特的诊断实体,通过正式诊断标准的认识服务于患有这种有别于经前症状和严重抑郁症的周期性情绪障碍的重要少数女性。
Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) has been included as a formal diagnosis of a mood disorder in the appendix of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition in 1994. The ensuing, critical attention has resulted in increased research productivity and clinical recognition of this neglected women's health problem. A decade later, this paper will review the current literature on PMDD focusing on prevalence, biopsychosocial etiological correlates, history of the development of a formal DSM diagnosis, and the controversies surrounding the current classification of PMDD. The authors conclude that PMDD presents a distinct diagnostic entity and that recognition through formal diagnostic criteria serves the important minority of women who suffer from this cyclical mood disorder distinct from premenstrual symptoms and major depression.
