10 Low Estrogen Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #5: Difficulty Concentrating
During perimenopause, short-term memory problems and difficulty with concentration are common. However, studies that have evaluated the relationship between low levels of estrogen and cognitive function are inconsistent.
Lifestyle factors such as stress and sleep problems are also very common in patients with low estrogen levels. These may play a more important role in concentration problems than hormonal fluctuation. Since the cause of this problem is not clear, there is no obvious remedy. However, staying physically active is a great way to improve brain functioning.
