WHY HORMONAL HEALTH MATTERS

Your hormones — estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, thyroid, melatonin, leptin, grehlin and insulin — work together in a delicate rhythm.
When one is off, the rest follow. That’s why symptoms like fatigue, PMS, low libido, or weight resistance often share the same root cause.

  1. Irregular or painful cycles
  2. PMS or mood swings
  3. Fatigue/burnout, low motivation, or brain fog
  4. Under active or overactive thyroid
  5. Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
  6. Hair loss, dry skin, or feeling cold
  7. Anxiety, irritability, low mood or poor sleep
