Anxiety
Anxiety occurs when a person is too anxious or worried about something. The crippling effects of anxiety may make it difficult, if not impossible, to function normally. It might develop slowly or strike suddenly. A hormone imbalance may be to blame if someone is experiencing anxiety symptoms. An imbalance in estrogen has been linked to feelings of concern and anxiety. This occurs because an imbalance in this hormone may disrupt the levels of other hormones, such as testosterone. When hormones are balanced, an individual will not feel a thing. However, an individual can become anxious, worried, or suffer other mental or emotional symptoms when something is off.
Anxiety is frequent in people with hormone imbalances, but it may be difficult to tell whether or not one causes the other. Hormonal imbalances affect both men and women. Hormone-related anxiety affects both sexes; however, females are more likely to have symptoms than males. Sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone tend to fluctuate, affecting how anxious someone may feel. Changes in these hormone levels have been linked to emotional shifts. Because of this, puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause may all cause increased anxiety in certain people.
