Female Hormone Balance Symptoms and Solutions
There are various stages of the female health journey, from puberty to menopause and everything in between. Many different health problems can happen along the way too, like PMS, which may affect up to 80% of women, or conditions such as PCOS and Endometriosis; and each stage and/or health issue brings with it different nutrient requirements. For example, nutritional needs as puberty begins will be significantly different from those during the menopausal years. Common factors affecting female health at any stage include toxicity, stress and pressure, oestrogen metabolism, sub-optimal nutrient status and hormonal imbalance. Optimising health and nutrient status, and using targeted nutrients, women's health supplements or formulations may help to address specific needs at each stage of the female health journey.
