The 3 hormones that are causing your symptoms...
What’s the Metabolic Storm again?Well, in case you forgot…The Metabolic Storm is the root cause of hormonal problems in women.
If you’re on thyroid medication in particular…It’s also the reason your thyroid medication maybe hasn’t been working for you.
You see, when you’re experiencing hormonal problems because of the Metabolic Storm…
…it means that there are 3 different things going berserk at the same time.
This is why your hormonal problem is much more complicated than a ‘single’ hormonal issue.
These 3 hormone producing glands secrete a lot of hormones!
AND these 3 hormone producing glands are all involved in your symptoms.
So…
Let’s start with the ovaries. (Even if you’ve had them removed because of ‘hormonal problems’)
If you are in the Metabolic Storm…
Then there is a very good chance that you are suffering from ESTROGEN DOMINANCE.
Estrogen dominance can cause:
Decreased sex drive
Irregular or otherwise abnormal menstrual periods
Bloating
Breast swelling and tenderness
Fibrocystic breasts
Headaches
Mood swings
Fat gain, particularly around the belly and hips.
Hair loss
Sluggish metabolism
Memory Loss
PCOS
Fatigue
Insomnia
PMS
Those are just some of the symptoms.
You will never ‘balance’ your hormones properly unless estrogen dominance is fixed.
NEVER.
BUT, you can’t simply just fix estrogen dominance.
Estrogen dominance is a result of your ovaries being in the Metabolic Storm (if you no longer have your ovaries, then you most definitely are experiencing the effects of estrogen dominance.)
You have to fix the REAL problem…the Metabolic Storm, meaning you have to fix the CAUSE of the Metabolic Storm.
Now, In case you’re wondering…
Estrogen dominance essentially means that you either have too much estrogen, not enough progesterone, or a combination of both.
There are MANY ways that you can become estrogen dominant.
I hope you’re starting to see why fixing hormones can be complicated, especially when only the symptoms are addressed, not the cause.
