          Depression Linked to Increased Menstrual Pain

          Depression may increase the risk of menstrual pain, or dysmenorrhea, through mechanisms such as sleep disturbances. Using genetic analysis, researchers found that depression likely causes period pain, rather than the reverse, highlighting an underexplored connection between mental and reproductive health. The study suggests that addressing sleep issues and mental health could improve treatment for severe menstrual pain.

          New Research Provides Theory on Why Women Stopped Menstruating Upon Arrival at Nazi Death Camps

          98% of women imprisoned in Nazi concentration camps during the Holocaust experienced amenorrhea, or the absence of menstruation. A new theory proposes the sudden cessation of menstruation of these women was too uniform to be the effect of trauma and malnutrition alone, but rather caused by the administration of synthetic steroids in their food supply that halted menstruation and impaired the ability to produce children.

          Seizures During Menstrual Cycle Linked to Drug-Resistant Epilepsy

          Study identifies a link between women with catamenial epilepsy who suffer more frequent seizures during their menstrual cycle and drug-resistant epilepsy. Those with catamenial epilepsy are almost four times more likely to have drug-resistant epilepsy than women who do not experience an increase in seizure frequency during their menstrual cycle.
