Basically, the hormones that your body produces which affect your moods are slightly less balanced when you go through puberty and menopause. This is why there are what people call 'moody teenagers' and 'crabby old women'! It's not something that can be controlled easily, although when going through the menopause, you can be supplied with HRT medication to help balance the oestrogen levels. A lot of women choose not to take HRT, however, as it has been said to increase the likelihood of breast cancer.

It's another transition in life. Teenagers are moody because of new burgeoning hormones. It is very difficult for them to understand what is going on w/in their bodies and they react to the hormones. Well, menopause is the same thing. Hormones are shifting and it is difficult for a woman to distinguish the cause of their moodiness. When a feeling that feels like anger pops up for no apparent reason people are use to going with the feeling that they are experiencing rather than looking at where it may be coming from. Another adverse side effectthing of menopausal women is "hot flashes". This is an extremly uncomfortable condition of menopause. In the middle of a blizzard a woman is taking off her coat, scarf, and hat because she is hot. At night when sleeping they can get so hot that they will sweat to the point that they drench their sheets. It is a very uncomfortable condition and since they feel so bad they are moody. The best way for someone going through menopause to minimize these symptoms is not eat commercial meats. They are filled w/hormones that the commercial farmers use to make the animals grow or to keep the cows lactating (a condition these animals need to be in to produce milk). Women don't need anymore hormones. My suggestion for someone who likes meat and dairy is to transition into organically raised animals. These animals are hormone free and much healthier for everyone. Another thing that could help is for them to eat more fresh vegitables and fruits and not drink coffee or alcohol because these items exacerbate the condition. If someone close to you is going through this it is my suggestion that you have patience. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. It could take a few months to a few years, but it does end for most people. Everyone is different though. But what I have noticed is that if someone going through menopause eats a healthier diet their transition is much smoother. What I mean by healthier diet is no fast foods or packaged foods that have ingredients like MSG (MSG also goes by the names Natural Flavorings, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid (aspartam=Nutrisweet), or soy)in them. This really drives women crazy and puts them into really moody behavior. Soy, by the way shuts down the thyroid and causes hypothyroidism a condition that most menopausal women experience(they can't seem to loose weight?) . It simply boils down to the less amount of additives she eats the better she will feel. This is easier said than done, because most people don't want to give up their junk. I wish you the best of luck.
Namaste!

Because it causes a lot of hormonal changes. Hormones pretty much regulate everything that goes on in your body, from your weight, to acne, to your mood. It's also something that happens to a woman when she's getting older, and people don't really like to be one step closer to death. I imagine it's a little upsetting for them.
That will give you more information.
