何為“購(gòu)物生理期”？

女同胞們有沒(méi)有覺(jué)得每個(gè)月有一段時(shí)間特別想逛街，有時(shí)候又完全沒(méi)有逛街購(gòu)物的欲望呢？有研究說(shuō)，逛街購(gòu)物的欲望跟生理期也有關(guān)系呢。

A study finds that in the 10 days before their periods began women were more likely to go on a spending spree, which is called shopping period. Psychologists believe shopping could be a way for premenstrual women to deal with the negative emotions created by their hormonal changes.

一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，女性在生理期到來(lái)前十天更易大肆購(gòu)物，這種現(xiàn)象叫做“購(gòu)物生理期”。心理學(xué)家認(rèn)為，購(gòu)物可能是女性應(yīng)對(duì)生理期到來(lái)前因荷爾蒙變化而產(chǎn)生的負(fù)面情緒的一種方法。

Women are buying items to make themselves feel more attractive - coinciding with the time of ovulation when they are most fertile, typically around 14 days before the start of a period. Most of the purchases made by the women were for adornment, including jewelry, make-up and high heels.

女性?xún)A向于在排卵期，即生理期到來(lái)前14天左右，購(gòu)買(mǎi)一些讓自己更有魅力的產(chǎn)品。她們?cè)谶@期間購(gòu)買(mǎi)的大部分都是裝飾類(lèi)物品，比如珠寶、化妝品以及高跟鞋等。
