Excessive stress can also cause menstrual irregularities

Irregular menstruation is the most common problem in gynecological diseases. There are many reasons for irregular menstruation in women. According to experts, long-term excessive stress can also cause irregular menstruation. Why is this?

1. Excessive pressure

Have you ever had your period stop for less than half a month, and your "good friend" comes again? Why do you have two periods in one month? Think about it carefully. For a long time, your period has been irregular, sometimes early, sometimes late, and the amount is heavier than before?

Experts remind that if women of childbearing age are under long-term stress, the function of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland will be suppressed, causing the ovaries to stop secreting female hormones and ovulate, and menstruation will begin to become disordered. Similarly, long-term psychological repression, sulking or bad mood will also affect menstruation.

2. The impact of fast food

For modern white-collar workers, it is normal to eat fast food for lunch due to the fast pace of work and various pressures. Moreover, the food they eat is mostly staple food and meat, with very few fruits and vegetables. Therefore, due to the influence of poor diet, constipation and irregular menstruation often occur in female friends.

Experts warn: Constipation may cause menstrual disorders in women. When the rectum is overfilled with stool, the cervix will be pushed forward and the uterus will tilt backward. If the uterus is tilted backward repeatedly for a long time, the veins in the broad ligament will be compressed and blocked, and the uterine wall will become congested and lose elasticity. If the uterus remains in a retroverted position for a long time, low back pain and menstrual disorders will occur.

Loving beauty is a girl’s nature, so even in cold weather, wearing thin clothes is a normal thing for girls who love dressing up.

Experts warn: If women are exposed to cold during menstruation, it will cause the blood vessels in the pelvis to contract, leading to ovarian dysfunction, which can cause too little menstrual flow or even amenorrhea

4. The harm of smoking

I believe everyone is well aware of the harm of smoking. Although for some female friends, smoking a cigar or a Morgan is a very "cool" thing, but if you have irregular menstruation for several consecutive months, shouldn't you pay attention to it?

Experts remind: Nicotine in tobacco can reduce the secretion of sex hormones, thereby interfering with physiological processes related to menstruation and causing irregular menstruation. Women who smoke more than a pack a day are three times more likely to have irregular menstruation than non-smoking women.

5. Taking nutritional supplements randomly

China implements the one-child policy, and having a healthy and beautiful baby is the dream of every young parent. There are many supplements for women on the market now, and many friends "supplement" without understanding their own bodies, which makes the originally healthy body have irregular menstruation. Why?

Experts remind: Most supplements have hormonal effects. Abuse will disrupt the normal hormone balance in the human body, leading to menstrual disorders and infertility.

6. Excessive weight loss

Maintaining and having a good figure is the pursuit and dream of every woman. However, weight loss must be done scientifically. Excessive exercise and malnutrition can lead to irregular menstruation.

Experts remind: fat is an important condition for female maturity and is the energy source for female menstruation and reproduction. If the total amount of body fat is less than 17% of body weight, it will affect the development of sexual organs and the onset of menstruation. Studies have also shown that if women eat too little fat, the secretion of estrogen in the body will decrease over time, which in turn may cause delayed menstruation or even amenorrhea.
