3 Factors That Contribute To Hormone-Related Illness

As physicians and OBGYNs, we have had the privilege of caring for thousands of women. Over the past 15 years, we have seen many of them struggle with hormone-related health issues like:

  • Polycystic ovarian syndrome

  • Heavy and irregular periods

  • Endometriosis

  • PMS

  • Postpartum depression

  • Peri-menopausal mood disorders

  • Difficulty losing weight

Often when you think about hormones, you think of ovaries. Well, your hormone or endocrine system also includes your thyroid, adrenal, hypothalamus, and pituitary glands. This system can be impacted by factors you might not suspect. For example, stress can greatly affect your hormones. Whether you are dealing with an acutely stressful event or chronic stress, it is important to manage this effectively.  

Another thing that can contribute to a hormone-related health issue is a diet that is inadequate or lacking the appropriate nutrients. There could also be some health foods that you are eating that are working against you. Learning what foods you are sensitive to can be beneficial. Additionally, a lack of physical activity, inadequate hydration, and dysfunctional sleep patterns can all impact your hormone system. Not attending to these critical lifestyle factors can worsen your symptoms and may even be the initial cause of your disorder.
