What are some surprising factors affecting women’s hormonal health and how can you help your hormones?
Let’s talk about it.
Women’s hormones are affected by many things – diet, exercise, sleep. Yet some factors are not so obvious.
Here are some surprising factors that affect women’s hormonal health:
#1. Environmental Toxins
Particularly endocrine disruptors can seriously affect women’s hormones. For instance, BPA from plastics can disrupt estrogen function by filling in the receptor sites for estrogen.
#2. Other People
Particularly women in your life, affect your hormones. Surrounding yourself with healthy hormonally competent women will help your hormones get into better balance. We share pheromes with one another which tells our hypothalamus how to behave hormonally. Plus, having a supportive group of women in your life helps to relieve stress.
#3. Stress
Stress is one of the major factors that affects women’s Hormonal Health. Women who are under stress have decreased fertility, irregular menstrual cycles, increased weight gain, and insulin resistance, and are more prone to chronic illnesses including increased risk for cancer and cardiovascular disease.
Stress activates your hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Which is a good thing if you need to get away from danger, but if stress is chronic, it can cause hypothalamic dysfunction. And when your hypothalamus is not functioning properly none of your hormones are in balance.
#4. The biggest surprising factor for most people, including healthcare practitioners, is how much the hypothalamus affects women’s hormonal health.
From PCOS to infertility, estrogen dominance to menopause, your hypothalamus controls your sex hormones, as well as your adrenals, thyroid and pancreatic hormones. Hypothalamic dysfunction leads to infertility because the hypothalamus controls reproduction.
Hypothalamus dysfunction is why you have menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, brain fog, and lack of libido. So it is incredibly important that your hypothalamus is healthy and functioning optimally. Which doesn’t always happen if you’re not supporting it nutraceutical.
