Premenstrual Syndrome 08 - Premenstrual Syndrome ( PMS )- What Causes PMS Depression

As we mentioned in previous article, Premenstrual syndrome effects over 70% to 90% of women before menopause in the US and less for women in Southeast Asia because of their difference in living style and social structure. The occurrence of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) have more than doubled over the past 50 years due to the acceptance of it as a medical condition that is caused by unhealthy diet with high in saturated food. Premenstrual syndrome is defined as faulty function of the ovaries related to the women's menstrual cycle, it effects a women's physical and emotional state, and sometimes interferes with daily activities as a result of hormone fluctuation. The syndrome occurs one to two weeks before menstruation and then declines when the period starts. In this article, we will discuss what causes PMS depression.

Depression is mostly caused by hormone imbalance for women with PMS, including

1. Aldosterone
Glucocorticoids is also produced by adrenal gland, besides helping liver in regulating the glucose metabolism and immune system in fighting against foreign invasion such as bacteria and virus, it also have an negative effect on central nervous system. Over production of glucocorticoids cause stress and depression.

2. Glucocorticoids
Glucocorticoids is also produced by adrenal gland, besides helping liver in regulating the glucose metabolism and immune system in fighting against foreign invasion such as bacteria and virus, it also have an negative effect on central nervous system. Over production of glucocorticoids cause stress.

3. Cortisol
Women with pre menstrual syndrome are found to have high levels of cortisol, it is either caused by inability to cope with daily stress, hormone imbalance or nutrients deficiency before menstruation.

4. Serotonin
Serotonin is a monoamine neurotransmitter synthesized in serotonergic neurons in the central nervous system. Unbalancing of levels of serotonin before menstruation causes nervous tension, water retention, anger, aggression and lost of concentration and stress.

5. Androgen
Androgen is a steroid hormone, it helps to stimulates or controls the development and maintenance of masculine in the body. Unbalancing of androgen can influence our behaviour, such as emotional and physical stress, because our nervous system is sensitive to steroid hormones.
