Is trait rumination associated with affective reactivity to the menstrual cycle? A prospective analysis

CONCLUSIONS: An individual's trait-like propensity to engage in rumination may not be a valid treatment target in premenstrual mood disorders. State-like changes in rumination should still be further explored, and well-powered prospective studies should explore other cognitive and behavioral factors to inform development of targeted psychological treatments for patients with cyclical affective symptoms.PMID:38284220 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291723003793
