One of the most common explanations for increased sensitivity to alcohol is related to hormonal changes that occur during perimenopause, which can start in the mid-40s and last for several years. These hormonal fluctuations can impact how we metabolize alcohol, leading to more pronounced effects and hangovers even after just one drink.
As women approach their 50s, it is not uncommon for them to experience changes in their reactions to alcohol. The body's ability to process alcohol slows, and the hormonal shifts can exacerbate inflammatory responses, making hangovers feel worse and leaving many women questioning their drinking habits.
