Symptoms of anxiety in women
Estimated read time: 4,2 minutes.
Anxiety is a mental disorder that affects millions of people around the world , and specifically 6.7% of the Spanish population.
Although anyone can suffer from it, regardless of sex and age, anxiety occurs more frequently in women , according to the latest report from the Ministry of Health , which shows that 88.4% of women suffer from this disorder at some point, compared to 45.2% in the case of men.
Likewise, although many of them are common, such as shortness of breath, sweating or chest tightness, the symptoms of anxiety in women can also be different from those of men , especially in women who are of reproductive age.
Given the importance of knowing the symptoms in order to identify an anxiety problem, below, at Be Levels we review the most common symptoms of anxiety and stress in women , which can vary significantly both in form and intensity.
The most common symptoms of anxiety and stress in women
Anxiety can have a significant impact on women's lives , manifesting through the following symptoms:
1. Hair loss
Hair loss is one of the main symptoms of anxiety in women , which can cause excessive hair loss, much more than usual.
This is because constant stress disrupts the hair growth cycle , and is a sign that the body is under significant pressure and needs attention.
2. Brittle skin and nails
Chronic stress associated with anxiety can affect the health of the skin and nails , with women with anxiety often experiencing dry, flaky skin and brittle or fragile nails that are prone to breakage. These problems may reflect an imbalance in the body caused by anxiety.
3. Fatigue
Fatigue is a common symptom of anxiety in women , directly related to mental and emotional overload, which causes extreme tiredness and lack of energy.
Constant worry and stress can affect vitality , leaving women feeling exhausted even after resting.
4. Headache
Recurrent headaches and migraines are common symptoms in women with anxiety , caused by constant muscle tension in the neck and head area, along with mental pressure, which can vary in intensity and duration.
5. Changes in the menstrual cycle
Anxiety can interfere with a woman's menstrual cycle , causing irregularities such as more painful periods, shorter or longer cycles, and changes in menstrual flow. This is because stress affects hormonal balance, which can lead to these imbalances.
6. Feelings of fear and worry
Intense feelings of fear and worry are hallmark signs of anxiety . Women may experience constant fear, even without an immediate threat, which can be debilitating and affect their overall well-being.
When this feeling is not treated, panic attacks may occur , accompanied by strong palpitations, excessive sweating or inability to think or move.
7. Nausea and tachycardia
Anxiety can manifest itself through physical symptoms such as nausea and rapid heartbeat . Feelings of upset stomach and a rapid heartbeat are the body's responses to stress, and are very common in women who struggle with anxiety on a daily basis.
8. Mood swings
Abrupt mood swings are another symptom of anxiety in women . Both anxiety and stress can lead to episodes of irritability, sadness or frustration, which in some cases can be difficult to control, affecting both relationships with other people and quality of life in general.
9. Difficulty falling asleep
Difficulty falling asleep is a significant symptom of anxiety , and it is common for women with anxiety to experience insomnia, wake up several times during the night, or have difficulty relaxing before sleeping, due to the constant worry they are exposed to.
Aware that this is a very common symptom, Phil Hugo, the formulator of Be Levels, has developed a health protocol for the treatment of insomnia and nocturnal anxiety, aimed at improving the symptoms of nocturnal anxiety and insomnia, through a series of tips on lifestyle hygiene, nutrition and natural food supplements that will allow you to recover your sleep cycle.
10. Social traumas
Women with anxiety often experience social trauma , tending to avoid social situations and isolate themselves. Fear of judgment or negative interactions can lead to avoiding social events and reducing participation in activities they once enjoyed.
