🌎 Don’t see your country listed?
If you know of a country-specific PMD (PMDD & PME) Facebook group that’s not included, we’d love to hear from you! Please email us at info@iapmd.org so we can add it and help connect more people to local support.
📌 *This is based on the IAPMD Global Survey in conjunction with the assumptions that ~26% of the global population menstruates, and 5.5% of those have PMDD. It's important to note that this number is an estimate. The actual prevalence of PMDD can vary based on factors such as diagnostic practices, healthcare access, and awareness of the condition.

In Crisis? You're Not Alone.
At IAPMD, we believe that no one should have to face premenstrual disorders alone. While we provide information and community support, we are not a crisis service and cannot offer professional mental health care.
