Have you ever wondered why your mood fluctuates so much during your period or close to your period?
And you've wondered why you can't seem to be in control of it?
The truth is, you're not having any psychological illness, your hormones are taking you on a roller coaster.
But you see the cause actually? It is still not fully understood, but research suggests that hormonal changes play a significant role.
Now this is what happens in your body.
During the menstrual cycle, estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate, leading to changes in neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which regulates mood. Insufficient amounts of serotonin may contribute to premenstrual depression, as well as fatigue, food cravings and sleep problems.
These resultant changes are what you now feel as period mood swings or premenstrual syndrome.
The likely hood of this happening is heightened in women who have undiagonsed depression, though depression alone does not cause all the symptoms.
