Emmerdale 's Cathy Hope learned her likely health diagnosis on Monday night, after months of struggling with her mental health as well as experiencing physical symptoms. Cathy found herself lashing out in recent weeks yet unable to explain why, while she did begin to suffer from painful and heavy periods. Things took a worrying turn last week when the teenager suffered from a manic episode and nearly got herself killed, as she didn't seem to realise or care about the danger she was in.
In the fallout, Monday's episode saw her loved ones and her doctor trying to pinpoint a diagnosis - after being told she would have to wait for months for help from the mental health team at the hospital. Manpreet Sharma believed she had come to a 'concerning' diagnosis for patient Cathy though, and soon told her dad Bob Hope of her findings. Sharing her concern, Manpreet suggested the cause of Cathy's feelings and symptoms could be Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder.
Manpreet explained to Bob, after recalling a case study: "We think it might be a condition known as Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder. "It's a cyclic hormone based mood disorder. The symptoms and severity can differ between patients.
A treatment that works for one person might not necessarily work for another. "We need a specialist diagnosis first but I can make a referral today and get them started. "She advised there was no medical cure for the condition, and patients could experience it right up until the menopause - but there were treatment options.
