I guess it doesn't really matter now though, since I haven't had a period in four years. (Sorry if this was too invasive of a question)

The PMDD was undiagnosed. Only my mom believed it was going on. But every time I went to the hospital I either was on or about to get my period a couple days later but I didn't even learn about PMDD until 2013.
Once I got on seasonale birth control the 4 period a year birth control after 2 years of fighting to get on it it became obvious although people still didn't believe it.
