London: (RightNow) Women experience memory loss during pregnancy, known as ‘momnesia’. In this condition, women find it difficult to remember things or focus.

A new study reveals that increased levels of estrogen hormone affect brain circuits. This impacts specific parts of memory.

Experiments were conducted on mice, showing memory impairment due to excess estrogen. Tests were also conducted on 70 women.

Researchers stated that memory performance decreases in the late stages of pregnancy. This condition is not dangerous but can affect daily life.

It is important to note that the study found increased estrogen affects specific brain areas. However, further research on humans is needed.
