How does alcohol and exercise affect menstruation delay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hormone issues: Alcohol has significan liver effects and this is where your hormones are also metabolized. Weight loss and weight gain alters your body fat content and your hormones like testosterone are stored and re-released from your body fat, which is why significant weight loss can cause amenorrhea and weight gain can alter menses as well.
