THE MOST COMMON HORMONAL IMBALANCE I SEE IN MY PRACTICE AND HOW TO START HEALING
Without a doubt, the majority of women I work with have an oestrogen imbalance - and it's usually too much of that sh*t!
WHAT CAUSES THIS?
A whole bunch of reasons could be behind feeling crappy because your oestrogen is in overdrive.
Think; histamine intolerance, chronic gut issues, environmental toxins, anovulatory cycles (not ovulating), high alcohol consumption, diabetes, obesity, high levels of cortisol (aka you're stressed to f*ck), or poor diet.
🌟 HOW DO I FIX IT?
Something I always get women to do is look at their liver. It's often overlooked, but it's a hard-worker and needs some TLC.
Think of it like a conveyor belt. If things start getting crowded on there, they fall off and wander places they shouldn't.
Keep scrolling to find out how to start making small changes to take care of your liver so it can run a tight ship.
OTHER WAYS:
✨ Reduce stress - if you're stressed, you produce too much cortisol. This stops you making enough progesterone to balance out the oestrogen. Kiera needs help keeping Mariah and Naomi in check, k?!
✨ At least 7 hours of sleep a night and get into the habit of a TIGHT routine, e.g. blue light blockers, phones off, sound bath music, eye mask, etc.
✨ Make sure you're consuming enough fibre - aim for 25g a day, so your p**p schedule is regular to help remove any excess oestrogen
✨ Supplements like a B-complex or Ashwaganda are great for boosting energy levels and reducing stress levels.
