Can sexual behavior also affect the menstrual cycle?

    Can sexual behavior also affect the menstrual cycle?

    Generally speaking, sex itself does not interfere with the menstrual cycle. But during sexual intercourse female Some hormones produced in the body may have some impact on the menstrual cycle. But a more reliable explanation is that women’s subconscious anxiety or hope about pregnancy creates mental pressure and affects the endocrine system.

    Excessive exercise and diet can also cause hormone imbalance. Moderate exercise can help the body maintain a good metabolism, allow the endocrine system to work in an orderly manner, and the menstrual cycle will be naturally regular. But excessive exercise is different.

    If you exercise too much for a long time (especially for some female athletes), it will be very problematic. Because of long-term excessive exercise, there will be very little body fat that can produce estrogen. In order to cope with high-intensity exercise, the secretion of androgens from the adrenal glands will also increase. This subtraction and addition makes it difficult for the hormones in the body to maintain balance. Therefore, long-term excessive exercise may not only cause irregular menstruation, but may even cause amenorrhea。

    If you are on a very strict diet plan to lose weight, your body is not getting enough nutrients. At this time, the brain will send a signal to the body that it is malnourished recently and is not suitable for pregnancy. Please stop ovulating from your ovaries. The originally well-functioning hormone secretion cycle is broken in this way, and menstruation naturally becomes irregular.

    In terms of endocrinology, these are the factors that may cause irregular menstruation. Of course, they are not all listed. However, I would also like to remind everyone that if menstruation is always irregular, check to see if any of the above factors are interfering with your endocrine system. If there is, of course we have to find ways to correct it.
