“…In both groups, REM sleep was decreased and REM latencies were increased in the LP compared to the FP. [10] Lee and colleagues showed that compared to controls, women who experienced negative mood symptoms during the LP had slow-wave sleep(SWS) patterns that were decreased at both menstrual phases. [34] Another study by Parry and colleagues revealed that women with PMS had more stage 2 sleep and less REM sleep, compared to controls.…”

“…[8] Furthermore, sleep disturbances such as insomnia or hypersomnia are one of the DSM-IV-TR's defining criteria for the diagnosis of PMDD, [4,6] and they are present in about 70% of women with PMDD. [9] A study by Parry and colleagues did not show any difference regarding sleep EEG variables between controls and patients with PMDD, [10] but other studies showed significantly increased rapid eye movement (REM) sleep onset latency, [6] significantly increased stage-two sleep, or significantly reduced REM sleep [11] in women with PMDD when compared to healthy controls, regardless of the menstrual phase.…”

•Original research article• Background: Up to 8% of women in their reproductive years are affected by Premenstral Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). Sleep disturbances such as insomnia or hypersomnia are one of the DSM-IV-TR's defining criteria for the diagnosis of PMDD and are found in about 70% of women with the disorder. However, studies are lacking that specifically address the effects of PMDD on quality of sleep. Aim: This study was designed to evaluate the prevalence of Premenstrual DysphoricDisorder (PMDD) and its impact on sleep quality in female university students. Methods: We developed an 18-item PMDD scale based on The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) to diagnose PMDD in female university studentswho ranged in age from 18 to 30 years and had regular menstrual cycles.Participants were categorized into a PMDD group or a No/PMDD group and sleep quality was compared between the two groups. The evaluation tool used to measure sleep quality was the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results: The prevalence of PMDD in female universitystudents was 25.5%. Analysis of the PSQI demonstrated that 80.5% of those in PMDD group had a PSQI that scored >5; however, only 56.4% in the No/ PMDD grouphad a PSQI that scored >5 (χ 2 =12.459, p<0.001). The mean PSQI score was 8.2(3.4) in the PMDD group and was 6.5(3.1) in the No/PMDD group (t=3.648, p<0.001). Conclusions: Female university students who experience PMDD are deeply affected by sleep problems. Lower sleep quality, daytime dysfunction, and sleep disturbance are common sleep problems among female university students with PMDD.

“…Given the relationship of postpartum psychiatric illness to major mood disorders and to other reproductive-related mood disorders (Wisner et al 1993(Wisner et al , 1995Cox et al 1993), and the efficacy of sleep deprivation in major mood disorders and PMDD (Gillin 1983;Parry and Wehr 1987;Parry et al 1995), we reasoned that sleep deprivation might serve as a useful clinical strategy to improve mood in patients with a MDE occurring during pregnancy or the postpartum period (Parry et al 2000b). Also, given that many women would prefer to remain drug-free during pregnancy or lactation, a treatment such as sleep deprivation, which potentially can exert its therapeutic benefit in one to two days, could serve to mitigate the devastating effects of these mood disorders in women.…”

“…Effects on phase or amplitude of multiple output rhythms suggest a pacemaker effect. Light treatment (Parry et al 1989a(Parry et al , 1993 and sleep deprivation (Parry and Wehr 1987;Parry et al 1995) improve mood and sleep quality in PMDD patients and, compared with NC subjects, has differential effects on neuroendocrine measures (e.g., evening bright light increases TSH nadir in PMDD subjects; Parry et al 1994Parry et al , 1996.In contrast to the phase-advances seen in NC subjects, PMDD patients display decreased responses and phase-delay shifts to morning bright light (Parry et al 1997c), suggesting a disturbance in the underlying circadian clock mechanism that regulates normal adaptive synchronization of the circadian clock internally and with the environment. Thus a most important timing S104 B.L.…”

Women have twice the incidence of major depression compared with men. They are prone to develop episodes of depression during times of reproductive hormonal change at puberty, with use of oral contraceptives, during the premenstrual phase of the menstrual cycle, postpartum and during the perimenopause (see review: Parry 1995a). WirzJustice (1995) In women, hormonal changes associated with the reproductive cycle may provoke affective changes in predisposed individuals. Examples include depression associated with oral contraceptives (Parry and Rush 1979), the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle (Hamilton et al. 1984;Endo et al. 1978;Halbreich and Endicott 1985), the postpartum period (Parry and Hamilton 1990), and menopause (Winokur 1973). Sex differences in the rates of depression begin to appear after puberty (Weissman et al. 1984;Angold et al. 1998), a time of major change in the neuroendocrine reproductive axis. From this time onward, women have a greater lifetime risk for major depression than men. Women predominate with respect to unipolar depression (Weissman et al. 1984), the depressive subtype of bipolar illness (Angst 1978), and cyclical forms of affective illness such as rapid cycling manic-depressive illness (Wehr 1984) and seasonal affective disorder (Rosenthal et al. 1984). Furthermore, the risk for major depression in both men and women appears to be increasing in recent generations (Weissman et al. 1984;Klerman and Weissman 1989).The fluctuation of ovarian steroids during specific phases of the reproductive cycle may bear some relationship to the particular vulnerability of women for mood disorders. The ovarian hormones could exert their effects on mood directly or indirectly by their effect on neurotransmitter, neuroendocrine, or circadian systems (McEwen and Parsons 1982;Albers 1981;Albers et al. 1981;Thomas and Armstrong 1989; Parry 1995a,b). Although each of these systems has been implicated in the pathogenesis of depressive illness, the circadian basis of these disorders has received the least attention. We have designed our studies with their particular chronobiological focus because the predisposition of women for major depression has not been investigated systematically with respect to the interaction of Chronobiology, Women and Depression S103 the unique cyclic reproductive neuroendocrine axis in women and circadian physiology. Although chronobiological disturbances have been described in depression (Kripke et al. 1978;Wehr and Goodwin 1980), the characterization of chronobiological disturbances in reproductive-related mood disorders in women remains to be elucidated. Below we review the circadian rhythm abnormalities that we have observed in premenstrual dysphoric disorder, pregnancy and postpartum depression and menopause. As reproductive hormones modulate the synchrony or coherence between different components of the circadian system (Thomas and Armstrong 1989), we hypothesize that these changing hormones during the premenstrual, postpartum and menopausal periods may destabilize circ...
