No offence really , but why do women act way off their head during menopause?

Answer 1

it's their hormones

my mom's like that

Answer 2

Personally, I find menopause to be undisturbing emotionally. A pleasant benefit, in fact, since I no longer suffer with cramping, bloating, or feeling too emotional the week prior to my period. I come from a family of five women who have not become unglued or out of their heads prior, during or after menopause. If it were a matter of our hormones "being out of whack", then it would not be a natural process for females. It's a natural development in a woman's life, not like an error. Maybe women appear "off their head" at this time to men because they are naturally more prone to acknowledging their feelings and emotions much more than males.

Answer 3

YOU try having everything you have ever known about your body go crazy on you. YOU try dealing with the fact that the hormones in your body, that you NEED to regulate your temperature, your happiness, your well being go berserk, NOT to mention the lack of understanding from fools like you. We have gone from relatively normal humans to beasts in a matter of months, its to bloody hot to wear clothes, your emotions are all turned around, you cannot sleep, you cannot loose weight, you cannot do some of the things you used to be able to do....and all because your ovaries are shutting down, and depriving you of much needed hormones. You loose a part of you that has always been there. Instead of seeing it as a blessing that no longer do we have to worry about birth control, and becoming a "crone=wise woman", we are left with people who just don't care that we are hormonally imbalanced. Insensitive people can make or break us. For years, we nurture,. we give life, we deal with pain and the pleasure of life. There is no male menopause, although...I think it might be a "mid-life" issue for some.
Frankly I am relieved to finally not have to deal with all the things a younger woman has to deal with. I love that I don't have to worry about cramps, bleeding, pimples, and a desire every month to curl up and cry. If you are having issues with a woman that has become emotionally distressed over menopause, ask her to seek help, its out there. Hormone replacement therapy is a great thing. You could try being a little more understanding as well.
The first few years are harder on us than it is on you.
No offense.

Answer 4

I have no idea (other than the hormones). My mum was an UTTER UTTER UTTER biatch.

As for the person above me: your body's going mad, but is that really an excuse to beat and bully your eldest child before throwing her out, and reduce your youngest to a terrified state??? That's what we got.

Have some sympathy the other way, dear. Watching someone change virtually overnight into a monster, particularly when it's your only parent, is far from fun.

Answer 5

No experience on this. Neither my mom nor older women in my family showed any signs of difference before and after menopause. It's just a phase in life. Are u making it up?

Answer 6

Once infertility has been diagnosed, there are a number of treatment options available depending on the root cause of the problem. Learn here https://tr.im/SgjG4

Infertility is a condition defined as not being able to become pregnant after at least one year of unprotected, regular, well-timed intercourse. Women who suffer from multiple miscarriages may also be diagnosed as infertile. Infertility may be classified into two groups, primary and secondary infertility.

Answer 7

every woman reacts differently. my mother cried all the time. a friend of the family has turned into a prize *&^%$. the hormones are changing and it's not a minor change like pms it's a major thing. also it can be a time of emotional uncertainty and grieving for a woman as it signifies an end to something that's very important.

Answer 8

its not their fault, they are not even aware of it... when menopause happens, the body's hormones that control emotion and other physiological effects are depleted. this time of a woman's life is a transition and many signs and symptoms happen. there are hot flashes, mood swings, irregular bleeding and other effects which in turn makes them irritable. its not them thats out of wack, its their hormones. such hormones like estrogen and progesterone are decreased and thats why they have these signs and symptoms which make them unpredictable and irritating sometimes.

Answer 9

Because our hormones are out of control. Our bodies are going through a major life change as well. That is why. Just like a pregnant woman-hormones are to blame for the major out of head expieriences. I for one and not looking forward to going through that either. I told my hubby I am dreading it and I know he worse than me. it's just a fact of life. I am about 10 years away from starting that lovely process.

Answer 10

when women begin menopause, their hormones go crazy. just the way they do before starting their period (PMS). plus, some women become emotional because it's one of those signs of getting older, which some women dread. they want to hang onto their youth, while its slipping away. after menopause, they can no longer have children.

it's just a hard time for women. hormone levels go up and down and it's just not fun. cut us some slack =]

Answer 11

They say hormones, but actually i think its just a good excuse for women to throw their weight around a little every now and then! LOL
