With this score, it’s less likely that hormonal changes are the main reason for your memory lapses. Other factors such as stress, lack of sleep, or even nutritional deficiencies might be playing a role.

If your memory lapses persist or worsen, consulting with a healthcare provider can help you explore other underlying causes and find ways to address them.
