Risk factors that affect women's mental health

Both biological and societal factors influence risk factors for women’s mental health. Women face higher rates of poverty, sexual and domestic violence and trauma than men, which significantly impact their mental well-being. These experiences can increase the risk of developing mental health issues such as depression, anxiety and PTSD. Additionally, research shows that societal, family and caregiver pressures contribute to a higher likelihood of experiencing depression among women. 

Other significant risk factors include hormonal changes during menstruation, pregnancy and menopause, which can affect mood and emotional stability. Chronic stress from juggling multiple roles at home and work can also lead to mental health challenges. 

At Family Care Center, we know that women face unique challenges. That’s why we offer validation, guidance and support in a safe and caring environment. We’re here to provide specialized mental health care for women and help you navigate any challenges you may face.

Menstrual cycle – PMS through menopause

Women’s mental health is intimately connected to hormonal changes during menstruation, PMS, and menopause. These shifts can contribute to symptoms of mental health conditions, leading to mood swings, anxiety, and perimenopausal depression.
