Modern women very often suffer from hormonal imbalances, which causes increased concern from the side of medicine. It does not pass without a trace, but causes many health problems, including diseases of the reproductive system. Hormonal failure in women occurs in combination with impaired functioning of the immune system, which as a result results in pathological changes in the menstrual cycle, the development of uterine fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia, polyps and polycystoses.
Every woman should remember a constant gynecological examination, which can not be missed, because many diseases of the reproductive system cause serious consequences, and can occur completely asymptomatically and without visible clinical signs.
Hormonal failure in women can occur during pregnancy. This is due to the beginning of the release of a new hormone - chorionic gonadotropin. The production of progesterone and estrogen is also enhanced, and this also causes certain changes. Subsequent sharp changes in the hormonal background occur after childbirth.
As practice shows, hormonal disorders in a woman’s body can be a variety of disorders, where genetic factors occupy one of the first places. In general, the list of reasons causing such failures is as follows:
- Severe nervous strain, stressful situation.
- Chronic fatigue. Hormonal failure in women often occurs after overstrain, lack of sleep, overwork, which is manifested in menstrual irregularities.
- Violation of diet or a strict diet. Remember that in the female body, subcutaneous tissue must be present in sufficient quantity. Otherwise, the hormonal background fades.
- Overweight and obesity. If subcutaneous tissue is in excess, hormone synthesis disorders are also observed.
- Reproductive system diseases.
- Excessive physical exertion. This adversely affects the hormonal background, especially if combined with a strict diet.
- Vitamin deficiency, chronic diseases and viral infections.
There are certain signs of hormonal failure in women. So, if a girl under the age of 17 years has a malfunction of the menstrual cycle or irregular periods, this is the main symptom of such violations. The fact is that at this time, menstruation should stabilize, and if this does not happen, there is a risk of insufficient production of estrogen and progesterone. Also, anxiety should be caused by strong hair growth and underdevelopment of the mammary glands.
Remember that hormonal failure in women can lead to cystic degeneration of the ovaries and underdevelopment of the uterus. After the girl began to have sex, she should be regularly examined by a gynecologist, because many sexually transmitted diseases cause inflammation of the genitals. If the woman is pregnant, the symptoms of such hormonal disorders are premature contraction of the uterus and pain in the lower abdomen.
Hormonal failure in women, the treatment of which begins immediately after its discovery, should be eliminated through the use of hormonal therapy. It restores the menstrual cycle, eliminates the symptoms of the disease and prevents its re-development. Very rarely, surgery is prescribed to correct the problem.
Remember that therapy for each woman should be selected individually, after conducting medical research. Self-medication is strictly contraindicated. In order not to aggravate your condition and identify a violation at an early stage of development, it is necessary to undergo preventive examinations at the gynecologist twice a year.
