Why are menopausal women emotionally unstable

Yes, menopause is often used as a synonym for "bad temper" in our lives, but in fact, menopause is a transitional stage in which women gradually go from sexual maturity to old age, and every woman will experience it.

At this stage, with the decline of ovarian function and the decrease of estrogen secretion levels, women will experience a series of dysfunction of the neurosecretory system and autonomic nervous system. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are a manifestation of menopausal syndrome.

No.1 physiological factors-hormone fluctuations

Common symptoms include anxiety and depression. The reason is to talk about the fluctuation of menopausal hormones. Human emotions are not generated out of thin air, but are controlled by the nerves of the brain, so the hormones used in the brain change, and the emotions naturally change. (So ​​it’s a last resort for menopausal women to lose their temper, because hormones control her.)

Estrogen is one of these hormones, and it not only directly affects the brain, but also affects other hormones such as FSH (follicle stimulating hormone), DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), serotonin (serotonin), etc. , Indirectly affect the central nervous system that regulates emotions.

No. 2 social factors-multiple pressures

In addition, menopausal women face children's academic pressure, work pressure, parents' physical health problems, plus career responsibilities, economic problems, etc., multiple role pressures can easily lead to mood swings.

Under the dual effects of physiological factors and psychosocial factors, the incidence of depression in menopausal women increased.

You should know that depression is not just as "bad mood", it has risen to the category of disease, with symptoms such as pessimism, sluggish thinking, silence, inactivity, severe sleep disturbance, etc. If timely and appropriate intervention is not carried out There may even be some distressing consequences.
