An Overview Of Women’s Hormones!

Hormones are chemical messengers that are produced by the endocrine glands and bring about a change in state in the body systems. In the case of females especially it is impertinent that the hormonal balance is maintained as various life aspects of pregnancy, menstrual cycle etc are controlled by these chemical messengers. The adrenal glands release certain sex hormones that control the sex drive. Other hormones involved in a female’s reproductive health are released by the ovaries. 

Along with dictating the reproductive cycles, pregnancy and menstruation, they play an important role in various other body functions that are core to healthy living and well being. It is when these women’s hormones are imbalanced that certain conditions are seen and often the popular Polycystic Ovary Syndrome PCOS results due to the spike or fall in the levels.

What Are The Conditions Controlled By Women’s Hormones?

Along with sexual functions, the chemical messengers are responsible for regulating various other crucial ones, such as: 

  • Mood and how stress affects you 
  • Metabolism 
  • The urge to eat or avoid food
  • Circadian rhythm. This could have effects on your sleep cycle
  • Menstrual period
  • Pregnancy

The symptoms of hormonal imbalance in females: 

  • Pain during sex
  • Difficulty in conception
  • Postpartum depression

What Are Women’s Hormones And What Do They Control?

There are three main female sex hormones in women that control their functions. The levels of these are vital, as any fluctuations could result in disrupted sexual functioning or menstruation and also bring about a change in the body.

Estrogen:

What is it?

Estrogen is produced by the ovaries and the adrenal glands, the former producing the major portion of it. 

What is its role?

The prime hormone in women, it plays a role in controlling the onset of puberty and the development of secondary sexual characteristics. When the hormone is released and at high levels in the body, ovulation is delayed and the lining of the uterus is changed, thus preventing implantation of the fertilised egg. Birth control pills also contain estrogen.

Progesterone:

What is it?

Also known as the pregnancy hormone, progesterone is released by the ovaries. 

What is its role? 

Progesterone levels play an important part in pregnancy and implantation. Following ovulation, the corpus luteum releases progesterone that lowers the levels of estrogen. The role of this is to prepare the body for pregnancy, in the event that the egg is fertilised.

Testosterone:

What is it?

A certain amount of testosterone, a male hormone, is produced by the adrenal glands and the ovaries in female bodies. The amount is minimal, almost 1/10th of the testosterone level that is produced in men. 

What is its role?

It controls bone health, fertility, vaginal health and many other functions. Once again, it is vital that the levels of it are in control as spikes could lead to a condition known as Hirsutism which is excessive body hair growth on the face, neck etc.

Seek Natural Help For Hormonal Imbalance!

These days due to the lifestyle we lead, we expose ourselves to steroidal supplements that mimic the natural hormones, through the cosmetics we use, the products we are in touch with, the food we consume etc. Thus, it is easy for the balance to be disrupted and thrown off gear. When a woman experiences an imbalance in the hormones, there is confusion in the systems and a cascading effect on other body functions. Conditions such as Amenorrhea, Endometriosis, Infertility or others could result, causing undue stress to the woman. 

Naturopath Domenic Pisanelli is committed to helping women regain their hormonal balance, by resorting to natural lifestyle and solutions. He takes the time to understand the lifestyle, medical history, the genetic predispositions and then comes up with a constructive plan to achieve a balance in the hormones. The methods of testing are scientific and help come to conclusions as to why the problem is occurring.

  • Instead of OTC medications, that have their own side effects, a natural approach that addresses diet, lifestyle, habits etc. are paid attention to. This ensures that it is not a temporary solution that you are seeking but rather one that lasts for a long time and prevents the problems from manifesting again 
  • Medications and OTC drugs that are contributing to the imbalance in hormones are also taken into consideration to strike a balance
  • Counselling and friendly and warm staff who ensure confidentiality and make it easy to communicate about stressors
  • The goal is to lead a happy life once the triggers have been managed
