Patient's question:
I am 27 years old this year. I recently changed to a new job, which has a lot of pressure. Also, as the year ends, the company is organizing team-building activities, making things busy and chaotic. I feel very down and lethargic. Also, in the past two months, I've noticed that my menstrual flow is less than usual. Hello, can bad mood cause a decrease in menstrual flow?Doctor's answer:
Feeling down, excessive stress, staying up late, and other factors can all affect the cerebral cortex and disrupt the endocrine cycle, potentially leading to irregular menstruation again. However, if there has been sexual activity, pregnancy cannot be ruled out. First, it is necessary to use a pregnancy test kit or have blood tests to check for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). As long as it is not pregnancy, there is no major issue. It is important to maintain a calm and balanced mindset at all times, avoid staying up late, and prevent excessive mental stress. This will help maintain a regular menstrual cycle.
