đź’§Bloating, fluid retention or breast tenderness around your cycle? Your gut health may play a role.
Oestrogen is processed by the liver and sent to the gut to leave the body through regular bowel movements.
đź’©When bowel movements are slow and stools sit in the colon for longer, some hormone by-products may be reabsorbed back into circulation instead of being eliminated.
🙍‍♀️For some women, this may contribute to symptoms such as:
• bloating
• fluid retention
• breast tenderness
• feeling more uncomfortable around their cycle
Supporting healthy bowel regularity can therefore be an important part of overall digestive wellbeing.
đź’§Colonic hydrotherapy may help support bowel regularity, helping many people feel lighter, less bloated and more comfortable in their digestive system.
To find out more about how colonic hydrotherapy treatments can help you, contact an ARCH therapist in your area đź’š
