What Are Common Gynecological Conditions Related to Stress?
Several gynecological conditions can be exacerbated or triggered by stress, including:
- Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS): Emotional symptoms like irritability, anxiety, and depression can worsen with stress. - Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Stress can exacerbate symptoms like menstrual irregularities and hormonal imbalances. - Endometriosis: Stress may intensify pain and other symptoms associated with this condition. - Menstrual Irregularities: Stress can cause irregular periods or even amenorrhea (absence of periods).
