The topic of Matsumi Ladies Clinic Mita English blog in October is about the relationship between diet and irregular menstruation.

 

Many young women adore super-skinny fashion models and make excruciating efforts to lose weight, without knowing that the majority on the catwalks are suffering from menstruation irregularities.

Is it worth losing weight?

The answer is “No!”

The irregular period cycle causes to damage your fertility.

 

Excessive or sudden weight loss puts your body under huge stress and stops the reproductive functions including the productions of hormones.

A crash diet or having too few calories leads to malnutrition.

When the body does not have enough nutrients, an abnormal reaction begins.

 

First, all the intake feeds the most critical organs, such as the heart and brain, sacrificing reproductive organs and their functions.

In other words, with insufficient nutrients, your body switches back to survival mode and stops flowing blood to the reproductive organs.

Some clinical studies reported that the blood flow in the arteries to the uterus is deficient in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), a disease characterized by metabolic disorder and ovarian dysfunction.

 

Hormonal treatment is available to normalize the period cycle.

However, the most important thing is to keep a healthy weight level.

 

Finally, I put a “period” at the end of the last sentence of the second easy reading article.
