What Is the Connection Between Stress and Menstrual Irregularities?
Stress can lead to menstrual irregularities by influencing the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which regulates hormones involved in the menstrual cycle. High stress levels may result in irregular periods, missed periods, or changes in flow and cycle length. Managing stress through relaxation techniques, exercise, and counseling can help restore normalcy.
