Possible Causes
Generally, Easily irritable can be related to:
- Peri-/Post-Menopausal Symptoms
Perimenopause refers to the transitional period leading up to menopause. It can begin several years before menopause and is characterized by hormonal fluctuations and irregular menstrual cycles. During this phase, women may experience symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and changes in libido. Post-menopausal symptoms refer to a range of physical and emotional changes experienced by women after they have gone through menopause, including hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.

A disorder marked by extreme and persistent shifts in mood that last for weeks to months, from periods of sustained depression to periods of elevated mood and euphoria. The precise cause is unclear, but genetic and environmental factors contribute.
- Depression
Depression is a mental illness that leads to low mood, reduced energy levels, and changes in sleep. This affects everyday activities like attending school and work. As the condition worsens, patients might have suicidal thoughts. Although stress and past trauma can cause depression, it can take time to identify and address causes, and genetic factors may also be at play.
