- the system is composed of two types of vessels, heart and blood vessels, which provide nourishment and oxygen to the body’s organs.
- consistent increase in heart rate, the elevated levels of stress hormones, and increase levels of blood pressure damages heart and blood vessels
- Increases risk for hypertension, heart attack, or stroke
- Having repeated moments of acute stress or chronic stress can inflammate the circulatory system and the pathways that determines how a person responds to stress, affecting the cholesterol levels
Cardiovascular system
Endocrine system:
- The body initiates the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) axis, a stress response, in a challenging, threatening, or uncontrollable situation
- During stressful events, the hypothalamus tells the pituitary gland to increase the production of cortisol for energy to deal with b the stressful event
- Increases the production of the stress hormone, cortisol, making the body feel in constant state of unrest due to the “stress response”
- Releasing too much cortisol can cause physical and mental health conditions such as chronic fatigue, metabolic disorders, depression, and immune disorders
Nervous system:
- Epinephrine and cortisol are released during the “flight or fight” response, causing the heart to beat faster, respiration rate to increase, blood vessels on the arms and legs to dilate, digestive process to change and glucose levels in the bloodstream to increase
- Chronic stress can drain the body long-term because the nervous system continues to trigger physical reactions
- The continuous activation that is from the nervous system affects other bodily systems, rather than it harming the nervous system itself
Female Reproductive system:
- high levels of stress can cause irregular or absent menstrual cycles, more painful periods, and changes in the duration of cycles
- Stress can negatively affect a woman’s ability to have children and reproduce, increase the chance of getting reproductive diseases, and can increase the chance of getting depression
- The stress can impact the fetal and ongoing childhood development and bonding with the baby in the weeks and months following delivery, negatively affecting the mother-child relationship
- For other women, high levels of stress can cause cramping, fluid retention, bloating, negative mood and mood swings
