According to the American Menopause Society, “Few scientific studies support the belief that menopause contributes to true clinical depression, severe anxiety, or erratic behavior.” However, some peri-menopausal women report symptoms of tearfulness, mood swings, and “feeling blue” or discouraged.

It is unclear whether these moods symptoms are related to the gradual decline in ovarian hormone levels, but sleep deprivation associated with night sweats often result in fatigue, irritability, and moodiness.   During reproductive years, women are accustomed to their own hormonal rhythm, this rhythm then changes during perimenopause and erratic hormonal ups and downs can create a sense of loss of control that can be upsetting.  Abrupt hormonal imbalance during perimenopause may have an impact on these symptoms as well.

Magnesium deficiency can cause hyper-irritability to the muscular and nervous systems which can result in emotional irritability and anxiety. Magnesium helps eliminate excess estrogen.  A healthcare provider can help determine your hormonal balance, assess options to increase or decrease and prescribe appropriate treatment for healthy levels.
