Causes of lack of memory

Not only do the elderly have trouble remembering things, but it often happens to young people and adults as well. Whether it’s the bag or a name, the things you studied the day before or the appointments.

If lately you realize that you suffer from bad memory, know that this can be due to several factors, such as too much work, personal life or stress.

However, in addition to these factors, there may be other reasons why our memory “fades”:

Medicines

Some medications, such as antihistamines, anesthetics, weight loss pills and blood pressure tablets, have the ability to “put our brains to sleep,” causing short-term memory loss. 

Hormonal changes

It can be due to pregnancy, menopause or other hormonal changes (also due to medicines), but this is normal.

Lack of sleep

When we don’t get enough sleep, we may notice some problems with retaining information and also with impaired memory and reflexes. Beware of insomnia, sleeping less than six hours a day, staying awake until morning every day, etc.

Hypertension

People with high blood pressure are more likely to suffer from cognitive impairment and memory problems, starting at the age of 45. This happens because the small cerebral arteries are weakened.
