Can drinking alcohol cause menstrual irregularities in women?

There are various kinds of alcohol on the market today, such as beer, red wine and so on. Nowadays, many women love to drink and drink excessively. We all know that drinking occasionally is good for the body. For example, drinking red wine can beautify the skin, and drinking white wine can warm the body and drive away the cold. However, drinking too much can also cause physical discomfort. So some friends asked if women drinking frequently will cause irregular menstruation?

According to research, if women have irregular work and rest schedules, lack of sleep, or catch a cold in the rain during menstruation, the blood vessels in the pelvis will contract excessively, which can cause oligomenorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, women should have a regular daily life, avoid excessive fatigue, and especially keep away from cold and damp during menstruation. Expert studies on excessive dieting show that girls need body fat to account for at least 17% of their body weight to experience menarche, and body fat must reach at least 22% of their body weight to maintain a normal menstrual cycle. People who diet excessively do not take in enough energy, which causes a large amount of fat and protein to be consumed in the body, resulting in estrogen synthesis disorders and obvious estrogen deficiency, affecting menstruation and even causing scanty menstruation or amenorrhea. Therefore, women who pursue a slim body must not blindly go on a diet to lose weight.

Addiction to smoking and drinking Cigarettes and alcohol can interfere with the physiological processes related to menstruation and cause menstrual disorders. Among women who smoke and drink excessively, 25% to 32% go to the hospital for treatment due to irregular menstruation; among women who smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day or drink more than 100 ml (strong liquor), the number of those seeking medical treatment due to irregular menstruation is three times that of women who do not smoke or drink. Therefore, women should not smoke and drink less.

Therefore, female friends who love to drink are advised to drink less alcohol, drink more scented tea, eat more supplements, etc. to regulate their bodies.
