Hormonal imbalances in women cause a variety of symptoms ranging from painful and irregular periods, excess menstrual flow, to infertility and menopausal issues. Masking the symptoms with OTC and prescription drugs like pain killers, antidepressants, tranquilizers or hormone replacement therapy does not work on bringing the hormones back into balance and addressing this root cause of the issue. All the stages of a woman’s life from puberty and start of menstruation, to pregnancy and menopause are natural and beautiful processes and should not be marred by physical, emotional and mental discomfort. However, due to our stress-filled lives, diet void of essential nutrients, sedentary lifestyle and toxic environment, our hormonal health is easily adversely affected.
Apart from supporting your liver health with periodic detoxes and switching to a clean diet rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals, another very effective way to naturally balance your hormones is with herbal remedies that have been used for hundreds of years to support hormonal health. These herbs work synergistically to relieve a variety of unpleasant symptoms that women experience at various stages in their lives.
