Example text
Some people get worse period pain when they’re stressed. Period pain in some teenagers has been linked to stress caused by family tension, guilty feelings about sex, or being encouraged to think of periods as unclean and a problem. The good news is that the stressful time usually ends and the periods return to normal. Symptoms The body’s first reaction to stress is an ‘alarm’ response. Messages from the hypothalamus stimulate the nervous system which in turn stimulates the adrenal glands to produce adrenalin.
Progesterone Progesterone, the other big star of girly hormones, is the building block starter for many of the other steroid hormones. So it plays an important role not only in periods and reproduction, but also in a number of other jobs in the body. It stimulates changes in organs with progesteronesensitive tissue. In the uterus, progesterone stimulates the endometrium so that it can support a developing embryo. If the egg is not fertilised, the level of progesterone falls, the endometrial tissue disintegrates and is shed as a period.
The body changes cholesterol into pregnenolone and then to progesterone. The progesterone might then be converted into any one of the other steroid hormones including oestradiol, oestrone, testosterone or cortisone. Progesterone circulates in the blood and interacts with cell receptors, but eventually it will pass through the liver where it is ‘turned off’ and excreted into the bile and urine. Androgens Androgens are blokey hormones, found naturally in both men and women. When androgen levels are too high, such as in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), it can interfere with the menstrual cycle and gynaecological functions.
