In “Shopping sprees linked to periods” BBC News report that the psychologists believe the shopping is a way for premenstrual women to manage with the negative emotion that from hormone changing. The study found in ten day before periods the women like to go spending spree. This situation is cause from fluctuation and surges in hormone and affects the part of brain. In fertile day, the women tend to dress to impress and were adornment with jewellery or make-up. As Professor Pine, of the University of Hertfordshire say, "The spending behavior tends to be a reaction to intense emotions. They are feeling stressed or depressed and are more likely to go shopping to cheer themselves up and using it to regulate their emotions."



What is your spending behavior? How much you pay for shopping per month ? Have you ever calculated it?

    I love shopping. I usually go to shop at Pattinum and JJ but I cannot remember how much I pay per month. I'm very happy when I buy new thing. And being happier when I go shopping with my mother because I don't pay it by myself. Do you agree with me?

    Every week I usually shop in departments such as TESCO Lotus, Carrefour, Top supermarket and Big-C. When I am shopping, I feel good because I buy some thing as I like it.Shopping help decrease stress for women. The most people shopping are women.
