About ‘Mood Swing’, Dr. Family Medicine Specialist of Savar’s BGMEA Hospital. Linda Samaddar said, “Hormonal effects, malnutrition, iron, vitamins and minerals are responsible for the rapid rise and fall of mood.
“Women lose a lot of iron from their body during their period. Failure to do so can lead to chronic mood swings. ”
‘Mood swings’ happen to both men and women. Lifestyle, work stress, stress, eating habits etc are also one of the reasons for ‘mood swing’, he said.
During adolescence, boys and girls undergo physical and mental changes. During this time the body’s hormonal changes take place. The result is a ‘mood swing’. So at this time boys and girls are much more emotional.
While ‘mood swings’ are normal for both boys and girls, women experience ‘mood swings’ at different stages of life due to different physical and mental conditions.
Most women have mood swings due to their monthly periods. Also, hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy affect the mind. This is also the time when ‘mood swings’ occur among mothers.
Moreover, the mother’s physical changes can affect her mood and cause mood swings.
In women, the levels of the hormone estrogen decrease during menopause. So even at this time ‘mood swing’ is normal, said Dr. Linda Samaddar.
Mood swings depend entirely on hormones. Hormonal ups and downs cause changes in a person’s mental state, which manifests itself in emotions.
‘Pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS)’ usually occurs a couple of weeks before the onset of the period. During this time many people experience changes in emotions, changes in food needs, weakness, nausea, emotional anxiety.
And that’s normal. Because the human body hormones control all these things, said Dr. Linda.
As the levels of the hormone estrogen increase before the period, such dramatic changes in mental state occur.
Mood swings are normal for most women and can be cured within a couple of days of the end of the period. However, a number of women face this problem severely which in many cases permanently destroys their emotional well-being. Many suffer from severe depression, mood swings, and irritability.
The problem of ‘mood swing’ can be solved through proper eating habits, adequate sleep, meditation etc. However, if it turns out to be a mental problem, then it is important to consult a doctor, he said.
Hormonal imbalances before periods as well as other factors affect mood swings.
Stress
Stress affects the body and mind. The result is a change in behavior. Depression, hesitation, even regular stress are responsible for ‘mood swings’.
Eating habits
Unhealthy eating habits, lack of nutritious food, processed foods, soft drinks etc. cause stress and anxiety. Therefore, it is important to eat nutritious, iron and calcium rich food at this time, said the doctor.
Rest
If you want to live a normal life, you must rest and get enough sleep along with work. Hard work and lack of rest have a lasting negative effect on the mood.
Not looking at the matter in an abnormal way, but doing the work of choice at this time, taking care of yourself, change your eating habits, rest, meditation, etc. to control the ‘mood swing’, Dr. Linda.
And if the condition worsens, you must consult a physician and nutritionist.
