Premenstrual dysphoric disorder(PMDD) is characterized by some combination of marked affective symptoms, which may be accompanied by physical symptoms. The neurofeedback training regulating frontal lobe EEG asymmetry that is vulnerability in women with PMDD had been performed to seek such a treatment in this study by reason that there is no suitable treatment with no side effects until now. Participants had been screened by Shortened Premenstrual Assessment Form, Symptom-Checklist-90-Revision, Daily Rating Form, and interview among 704 unmarried women. In result 18 women took PMDD diagnosis, and then these are assigned each 9 in treatment group and in control group by paired-matches. Premenstrual Assessment Form was used for measuring the effects of neurofeedback training on symptoms of PMDD. After Neurofeedback training, EEG asymmetry scores in treatment group was corrected more than those of the waiting list control group, and affective, behavioral and physical symptoms had been reduced more than control group. It seems that neurofeedback training helps to correct resting EEG of women with PMDD, has directive effects on affective and behavioral, and has mediate effects on physical symptoms of PMDD. In PMDD treatments of clinical practices, neurofeedback training could be a favorite treatment for both clinicians and patients.
