Hormones

All throughout our life, our hormones change and fluctuate, especially if you menstruate. 

It’s important to understand what our hormones do and when/why they fluctuate throughout the cycle as it can influence different aspects of our health.

In this day and age, there is a growing amount of external and internal factors that are playing a role in contributing to ‘imbalanced’ hormones, which can have a cascade effect on our health. Our hormones can be impacted by the health of our gut, our detoxification pathways, our nervous system and so much more.

Hormonal imbalances can look like

  • irregular cycles

  • painful periods

  • premenstrual symptoms

  • absent menstruation

  • heavy bleeding

  • acne

Our body sends us signals, like the above, to let us know that our internal health needs checking in on (& investigating).
