IAPMD UK
Evidence-led education and research for PMDD and PME.
IAPMD UK launched in 2026 to advance evidence-led research and education on Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and Premenstrual Exacerbation (PME) in the United Kingdom.
We build on the foundation of IAPMD Global, who have delivered high-quality information and support in the UK since 2013.
We take forward their commitment to evidence-based information for those with PMDD, their loved ones, health professionals, academics, and wider support providers.
IAPMD UK has exciting developments to announce throughout 2026, along with opportunities to get involved.
Close to a MILLION.
That’s 1 in 20 people.
