Abstract

The authors interviewed 78 female patients with late luteal phase dysphoric disorder and found a 78% lifetime prevalence of axis I disorders but only a 10% prevalence of axis II disorders. A prior depression was the predominant axis I disorder found, and 29% of parous patients had a prior postpartum depression. A comparison of Global Assessment Scale scores obtained at both the follicular and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle confirmed luteal increases in symptoms and role impairment.
