Now that I’m 44, if I could have a conversation with my 14 year old self, my 24 year old self, even my 34 year old self – one of the important subjects among many would be hormones. In today’s world of hormone-disrupting chemicals literally at every turn, every step, every bite, every drink, every breath…it would benefit women of ALL ages to know how to better support our bodies so that our hormones can stay balanced at every stage of life!
Hormone imbalances create so much havoc in our metabolism, our brain function, our sleep, our mental clarity and mental wellbeing among so many other things. You need to know that you have other options besides synthetic hormone replacements and better ways to deal with the woes of peri-menopause than just to survive it holding on by a thread. It’s complicated, yes, but it’s possible to navigate this with wisdom and peace of mind. One of the best things you can do is educate yourself, and maybe even more importantly educate your daughters!!
Hormones cannot function well without a properly functioning thyroid, adrenals, lymphatic system, and liver. Your female hormone production switches during menopause from the ovaries being the main producers to the adrenals, and if you’ve over-stressed your adrenals for too many years, your body will have nothing to give!
