Why do women's menstrual edge of depression?

As we all know, many women in the menstrual cycle, there is mood swings, especially before and during menstruation menstrual period, mood is very low, depression or Piqijizao. This is mainly manifested as irritability, anxiety, irritability, fatigue, headache, breast tenderness, bloating, swelling and so on. They often said: "The luck of the fast." "Bad luck" is a commonly known menstrual women.

Menstruation is a physiological phenomenon specific to women, the menstrual cycle, not only reflects the functional changes of female genital mutilation, but also reflects the mental activity related to reproductive function and behavior changes. The menstrual cycle, whether sex hormone or pituitary gonadotropin will undergo a series of changes, they will be adopted by a certain neural mechanisms affecting women's mental activity and behavior, cause some emotional changes. Of course, the emotional changes and stress can also affect the reproductive hormone levels and lead to ovulation suppression and cycle disturbance.

 

Results show that a high proportion of women in violent crime and suicide have occurred in the four menstrual days and 4 days before menstruation during this period, nearly half of the factory female union believes that the risk of their work, nearly half of women with mental illness yes the past few days hospitalized, and nearly half of women in emergency situations also occurred in the past few days. Even a doctor with children are also affected by this mood fluctuations, the mother due to their own anxiety, even if the child is not much problem but also a trip to the hospital. Of course, not all women are the existence of such mood changes, and the degree can not all be so serious.

 

　　Mood swings caused by the reasons for

From the biological point of view, which is obviously related to the menstrual cycle should be inherent in the sex hormone fluctuations. In the pre-menstrual, menopause, post-natal and common among women taking birth control pills the occurrence of depression. It seems inevitable between sex hormones and depression, there is a link. For example, some studies using oral contraceptive hormones control the level of emotional volatility, test the subjects were divided into 3 groups:

 

1, past and present are not taking oral contraceptives.

2, taking the combined oral contraceptives (to provide a stable, high doses of estrogen, progesterone).

3, serving sequential oral contraceptives (estrogen served 15 days before and after serving five days of estrogen and progesterone composite films, simulating natural cycle, but the hormone at a high level).

 

And then looking at these women after 4,10,16 days after menstrual period two days before the emotions. The results showed that non-medication group of women in the menstrual cycle, anxiety, irritability and hostile acts, statistically significant change; clothes sequential films of women have a similar performance; while serving complex feelings of women birth control pills, hostile behavior and anxiety no significant changes. Accordingly, the research suggests that female sex hormone level is constant mood is stable.

 

Other researchers think that mood swings and cultural enrichment, social and environmental factors. The long-term effects due to traditional customs, women think that inevitably arise premenstrual anxiety, this is a result of cultural oppression of women, they are always looking forward to pre-menstrual anxiety and depression from happening. Experimental studies have also provided similar evidence: Tell expected to come a week after menstruation of women, doctors can use a new set of instruments accurately measure the passing of their date. Subjects were divided into three groups, Group 1: Tell them to menstruation in 1 day to 2 days occurred; Group 2: Tell them to at least 7 days to 10 days to pass through; Group 3: What do not tell . Then let themReport on their series of questions by the former. The results showed that group 1, premenstrual edema, breast swelling,The occurrence of headache and other symptoms significantly more than Group 2.

 

Of course, there are many other evidence of the relationship between mood and hormone levels. IfDysmenorrhea women's psychological development may be premature, manifestations of neurotic character; risk of dysfunctional uterine bleeding in patients 70% ~ 80% with emotional disorders and sexual problems. This is because the tension will promote the activities of the autonomic nervous system abnormalities, thus causing changes in blood vessels and bleeding profusely. Pseudo-pregnancy is a more typical examples of pregnant women who are not married for many years convinced that they have seen similar during pregnancy pregnancyAmenorrhea, breast swelling and pregnancy reaction. This phenomenon changes in estrogen factor, but more fear of a desire to pregnancy and pregnancy due to ambivalence. Endometrial biopsy or vaginal smear study found that: After pre-operative anxiety in patients after the previous week increased the amount of estrogen, progesterone reduced; patients with premenstrual depression and progesterone were slightly lower.

 

It appears that biological factors (hormone levels) and non-biological factors (cultural, social, environmental) have played a certain role. Hormones, other physiological factors that have a certain impact, compounded by cultural, social and environmental factors which are larger, the two can interact and promote each other, so some women's depression issues.
