Don't beat yourself up over traffic violations & accidents linked to this just because there is no empathy.
You are not alone in your reduced cognitive function, often described as "brain fog"during menstruation, as it's be linked to hormonal fluctuations, inflammation, and other physiological factors.
🧠 Common Causes of Cognitive Changes During PMS MENSTRUATION & MENOPAUSE
- Hormonal Fluctuations:
👉 Estrogen and progesterone levels drop sharply before and during menstruation. hormones influence neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which affect mood, memory, and focus.
- Inflammation and Prostaglandins:
👉 The body releases prostaglandins to help shed the uterine lining, but these compounds can also cause systemic inflammation. This inflammation may contribute to fatigue and mental sluggishness.
- Sleep Disruption:
👉 Menstrual cramps, bloating, or mood disturbances can interfere with sleep quality, leading to daytime fatigue and impaired concentration.
- Iron Deficiency:
👉 Heavy menstrual bleeding can lead to lower iron levels, which are associated with fatigue and decreased cognitive performance.
- Mood Disorders:
👉 Conditions like premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) or premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can cause emotional and cognitive symptoms, including difficulty concentrating and memory lapses.
Its not an excuse for accidents but an intervention to a known fact.
