Abstract
Background and purpose: Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a debilitating illness that affects 3-8% of women worldwide. There are multiple factors underlying the aetiology of PMDD, ranging from neuroendocrine changes to psychosocial factors such as exposure to trauma. This systematic review aims to assess the prevalence of traumatic exposure in women with PMDD.
Methods: A literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE and PsycInfo was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Of the 369 studies identified for abstract and full-text screening, 27 were included for review and 16 studies for the quantitative calculation of average prevalence and 95% confidence intervals. Data extracted included study details, sampling details, demographic details, type of traumatic exposure reported, diagnostic tools used, the prevalence of PMDD (total) and the prevalence of self-reported traumatic exposure in PMDD patients.
Results: The reported prevalence of traumatic exposure in PMDD ranged from 18.03 to 90.5%. Using a random effects model, the pooled prevalence was 61% (95%CI, 46-74%). The level of heterogeneity (I2) was 95%, showing considerable variability in the data. Amongst only those studies with a control group, it was shown that those with PMDD are 1.99 times more likely to have a history of traumatic exposure than those without PMDD.
Conclusion: Our findings suggest that a history of traumatic exposure is highly represented in women living with PMDD. Trauma exposure may be a risk factor for PMDD and could inform this condition's aetiology. A trauma-informed approach should be considered when assessing and managing women presenting with PMDD.
期刊介绍：
Archives of Women’s Mental Health is the official journal of the International Association for Women''s Mental Health, Marcé Society and the North American Society for Psychosocial Obstetrics and Gynecology (NASPOG). The exchange of knowledge between psychiatrists and obstetrician-gynecologists is one of the major aims of the journal. Its international scope includes psychodynamics, social and biological aspects of all psychiatric and psychosomatic disorders in women. The editors especially welcome interdisciplinary studies, focussing on the interface between psychiatry, psychosomatics, obstetrics and gynecology. Archives of Women’s Mental Health publishes rigorously reviewed research papers, short communications, case reports, review articles, invited editorials, historical perspectives, book reviews, letters to the editor, as well as conference abstracts. Only contributions written in English will be accepted. The journal assists clinicians, teachers and researchers to incorporate knowledge of all aspects of women’s mental health into current and future clinical care and research.
