According to a 2019 study, 43% of women said that hormones had a negative impact on their overall well-being.

You Can Thank Your Hormones For That

Fatigue, irregular cycles, acne, anxiety and weight changes. If you’ve ever experienced any of these symptoms, it’s highly likely that your hormones were the culprit. 

Hormones work to transport messages around the body that affect and manage our bodily functions. These invisible messengers pack a powerful punch and play a large role in how we look, think, and feel. In fact, hormones affect everything from our appetites to our libido and mental health (and everything in between). Throughout different stages of our cycle, our usual hormonal balance can alter slightly– and if things go pear-shaped, it can feel as though we’re losing control of our bodies. 

A hormonal imbalance can result in an array of different symptoms, including: 

  • Weight and appetite changes 
  • Insomnia 
  • Mood swings 
  • Fatigue 

What Impacts Hormonal Health? 

When our hormones are happy, our body can feel like it's functioning like a well-oiled machine. However, as we know by now, the female body is incredibly complex in nature. 

As we age, our bodies undergo several significant periods of hormonal change. These include: 

  • Puberty 
  • Menstruation 
  • Pregnancy and child-birth 
  • Breastfeeding 
  • Perimenopause 
  • Menopause 

While hormonal change is a natural part of ageing, our hormones and bodies can still be affected by a range of other factors, such as: 

  • Hormone therapy 
  • Some medications and treatments (including chemotherapy and hormonal birth control) 
  • Trauma and injuries 
  • High-stress
