Hormones

You don’t feel like yourself anymore.

Maybe you’re exhausted despite sleeping.

Maybe your weight is creeping up even though you’re eating the same way.

Perhaps you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, irritable or struggling to concentrate.

Or maybe your periods have changed, your sleep is terrible and your body simply isn’t responding the way it used to.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not imagining it.

Hormonal changes can affect almost every system in the body.

And for many women, these changes begin years before menopause itself.

Common signs your hormones may be changing

You may be experiencing:

✔ weight gain, especially around the middle
✔ fatigue and low energy
✔ brain fog and poor concentration
✔ poor sleep
✔ anxiety, irritability or low mood
✔ hot flushes and night sweats
✔ heavy, painful or irregular periods
✔ sugar cravings and increased appetite
✔ changes in cholesterol or blood sugar
✔ feeling like your body has changed overnight.

Why do hormones affect so many things?

Hormones don’t work in isolation.

Changes in oestrogen and progesterone can influence:

  • metabolism
  • insulin sensitivity
  • body composition
  • sleep
  • mood
  • appetite
  • inflammation
  • energy levels.

This is why hormonal changes often feel like they affect everything at once.

It’s not just about getting through menopause.

Hormonal changes can also increase the risk of:

  • weight gain and loss of muscle
  • insulin resistance and prediabetes
  • high cholesterol
  • poorer metabolic health
  • reduced strength and energy over time.

The good news is that there is a lot you can do to support your body through these changes.
