Several factors can contribute to forgetfulness in women, including:
Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone, can impact memory and concentration. Menopause: The transition to menopause can bring about changes in memory and cognitive function due to declining estrogen levels. Pregnancy: Known as "pregnancy brain," many women experience forgetfulness and difficulty concentrating during pregnancy. Medical conditions: Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, and depression can also contribute to forgetfulness. Lifestyle factors: Stress, lack of sleep, and poor diet can affect cognitive function and memory.
