ings Smart Women Need to Know about Transforming eir Hormones

If you’ve ever wondered if your hormones are out of balance, chances are, they are. If you’ve ever felt frustrated looking for answers, but not really fnding any, you’re not alone. There is a movement brewing towards talking about hormones, partcularly related to menopause. There is demand for more understanding and research. LinkedIn even named Menopause as one of 41 Big Ideas for 2023.

No mater your age and stage in life, hormone imbalances can wreak havoc on your body, emotons and relatonships. According to Northwell Health,as many as 80 percent of women have hormone imbalances, partcularly related to estrogen and progesterone. However, many do not realize their hormones are of, and unfortunately, Western Medicine typically falls short of providing answers or treatment optons that go beyond birth control or hormone replacement therapy as symptom management.

There is also a rising demand among welleducated and driven women who wish to address their hormones without turning to supplements or medicaton. They want to get to the root cause of why their hormones are of in the frst place. Here are the three things smart and driven women need to know about balancing your hormones naturally that are focused at the root, and not just on the symptoms:

1. Hormones are a product of their environment There’s a common saying among hormone experts that was coined by Dr. Cheryl Burdete –”it’s not the hormones, it’s their environment. While we tend to focus on the external parts of our environment, for example cleaning and personal care products, water, and plastcs, there’s an entre layer to this that also encompasses the impact of our emotonal health on our internal cellular environment.

2. Stress throws the whole system off. Stress is a huge factor in the environment in which hormones live. Cortsol, the stress hormone, throws the entre system of kilter and will impact your thyroid and sex hormones. It steals precursors to your sex hormones, will convert progesterone into cortsol, and completely shuts down pathways for thyroid hormone producton. All of us live with a much higher baseline of stress and we tend not to always recognize the signs. Even if you don’t “feel” stressed, operate as if you are stressed.

3. The path to hormone balance is in cultivating internal safety first. Approaches to hormone imbalance tend to include a) medicaton when symptoms get beyond bearable or b) diets, supplements and exercise. The problem is, unless you have an established barometer for internal safety – meaning you are aware of your body, emotons and needs on a level that goes beyond your intellectual brain – none of those modalites will have the desired efect because the internal environment in which your hormones live has not changed. There is certainly value in lifestyle changes; however to truly have an impact, we frst have to shif our way of being in the world.

If you can make the shif to transforming your internal environment before your external environment, your hormones will follow.
