But unfortunately for all of us, hormone imbalances have become very common in today’s society. They are caused by a variety of factors, such as diet, chronic stress, car pollutants, and pesticides.
THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF HORMONE IMBALANCES
Hormone imbalances can lead to adrenal fatigue, estrogen dominance, and thyroid problems, all of which can have detrimental effects on our overall health.
ADRENAL FATIGUE
Stress is the biggest reason why adrenal fatigue has become so common issue everywhere around the world.
According to Dr. Wilson, adrenal fatigue is mostly caused by long periods of stress or several stressful situations, as well as severe respiratory infections. Over time, adrenal fatigue can lead to the development of Addison’s disease. Some of the most common symptoms of adrenal fatigue include low blood pressure, low blood sugar levels, joint pain, and depression.
ESTROGEN DOMINANCE
According to an article published by ZRT Laboratory, ‘Estrogen dominance refers to an excess of estrogen when progesterone levels are inadequate‘. This excess estrogen can lead to numerous problems, including breast tenderness, PMS, loss of libido, water retention, frequent mood swings, and depression.
So, if you notice any of the above symptoms, we strongly recommend you to visit your doctor to see what he thinks about your issues. Also, you should start using some of the essential oils listed below.
