HORMONAL BALANCE

Hormonal balance is necessary to get pregnant, carry to term and have a healthy baby.

What exactly are hormones?

Hormones are cell messengers coordinated by the endocrine system. Without proper endocrine function, our bodies cannot maintain proper hormonal balance.

Our cells are genetically programmed to only receive and respond to messages from certain hormones. Each cell in the body contains hormone receptor cites.

Once a hormone fits into a cell’s receptor, it gives the cell instructions. This is similar to a key fitting in a lock. Hormones control our bodily processes.

Hormone Balance or levels can be influenced by the following:

1. Stress
2. Fluid changes in the body, 3. Vitamin and mineral levels
4. Infection
5. Exposure to environmental toxins.
6. Amount of body fat we have

Each endocrine gland plays a specific role in the ability of our body to maintain proper function. Each endocrine gland also communicates with the other in an amazing design. If one of the endocrine glands is not functioning properly, it may cause a broken link in communication with other endocrine glands or actions of the body, which may greatly impair fertility.

Because the endocrine glands secrete hormones, and the hormones are messengers for actions within the body, if the gland is not functioning properly, hormonal imbalance occurs and the ability to reproduce may be impaired.

HORMONES IMPORTANT FOR REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION

There are key hormones that directly affect fertility health in both men and women.

IMPORTANT HORMONES IN WOMEN OF CHILDBEARING AGE:

1. ESTROGEN or Estradiol

is produced primarily by the follicles and corpus luteum (remnant egg sac) in the ovaries. This estrogen is the most potent and abundant. Estrogen is essential for healthy bone formation, healthy gene expression, maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, and formation of secondary sexual characteristics (pubic hair, breasts, etc). Estradiol is vital for a healthy menstrual cycle.

2. PROGESTERONE

Progesterone is needed for healthy libido, bone formation and proper blood clotting. Progesterone is produced by the corpus luteum in the ovaries and by the adrenal glands.

Progesterone is one of the main hormones in helping to regulate the menstrual cycle. It works to balance the effects of estrogen. Progesterone also signals the release of insulin, playing a role in a person’s susceptibility for diabetes or insulin resistant PCOS.

Adequate levels of progesterone are vital for proper fallopian tube function. Almost all of your other hormones are made from progesterone.

Progesterone is vital for conception and maintaining pregnancy. One of the main actions of progesterone is to help support a developing embryo. During pregnancy the placenta produces progesterone to help sustain the developing baby

3. LUTEINIZING HORMONE (LH)

This hormone is produced in the anterior pituitary gland. LH surge is responsible for triggering ovulation and development of the corpus luteum. LH works synergistically with FSH. It stimulates specific cells to produce testosterone.

4. FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE (FSH)

This hormone is also released and synthesized by the anterior pituitary gland. It regulates the body’s development, growth and maturation. It also regulates reproductive processes. FSH works alongside with LH.

FSH signals some of the follicles in the ovary to begin maturing in preparation for ovulation.

5. CORTISOL

Cortisol is produced by the adrenal glands, but it is controlled by the hypothalamus. Its primary function is to increase blood sugar, aid in fat, protein and carbohydrate metabolism and suppress the immune system. Cortisol is released in response to stress.

6. ANDROGENS

DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone):DHEA is a precursor to testosterone and estrogens. This means that those hormones are made from it. DHEA is necessary for protein building and repair. It is made by the adrenal glands. DHEA levels decline dramatically as we age.

7. TESTOSTERONE

Testosterone in women is in much lower amounts than in men. It helps to support a healthy sex drive and build bones.

Symptoms of hormonal imbalance can be a blessing. This is because they are the body’s signal that something needs to be changed

*HIGH PROLACTIN LEVELS*
(hyperprolactinemia)

*Symptoms of Hyperprolactinemia*

*In females, hyperprolactinemia or prolactinoma can cause:*

⏩ Irregular menstrual periods (oligomenorrhea) or no menstrual periods (amenorrhea)
⏩ Milky discharge from the breasts (galactorrhea) when not pregnant or breast-feeding
⏩ Painful intercourse due to vaginal dryness
⏩ Acne
⏩ Excessive body and facial hair growth (hirsutism)

*LOW PROGESTERONE LEVELS*

Progesterone is especially important in your childbearing years. If you don’t have enough progesterone, you may have trouble getting or staying pregnant. Each month, after one of your ovaries releases an egg, your progesterone levels should rise. Progesterone helps the uterus thicken in anticipation of receiving a fertilized egg. If it’s not thick enough, implantation doesn’t occur.

*Symptoms of low progesterone in women who aren’t pregnant include:*

⏩ Headaches or migraines
⏩ Mood changes, including anxiety or depression
⏩ Low sex drive
⏩ Hot flashes
⏩ Irregularity in your menstrual cycle
⏩ Abnormal uterine bleeding.
⏩ Irregular or absent periods may indicate poorly functioning ovaries and low progesterone.

Without progesterone to complement it, estrogen may become the dominant hormone. This may lead to a variety of symptoms, including:

⏩ Weight gain
⏩ Decreased sex drive, mood swings, and depression
⏩ PMS, irregular menstrual cycle, heavy bleeding
⏩ Breast tenderness, fibrocystic breasts
⏩ Fibroids, endometriosis
⏩ Gallbladder problems
⏩ Thyroid dysfunction


*Symptoms of low progesterone in women who are pregnant may include:*

⏩ Spotting and abdominal pain.
⏩ Constant breast tenderness
⏩ Unrelenting fatigue
⏩ Frequent low blood sugar
⏩ Vaginal dryness
⏩ Toxemia or ectopic pregnancy.
⏩ Recurrent Miscarriage
⏩ Fetal death (still births)

*Recurrent Miscarriages caused by low progesterone report such as above, could cause psychological trauma for a woman especially if she is TTC and in the childbearing age*

*HIGH FSH LEVELS*

*Symptoms of High FSH*

In women presenting with high FSH levels manifestations include

⏩ Ovarian hyperstimulation ⏩ Polycystic Ovaries or multiple ovarian cysts
⏩ Oligomenorrhea or Amenorrhea.
⏩ Galactorrhea may be present in the setting of high prolactin levels.

⏩ Primary or secondary infertility.

In women with ovarian failure, other symptoms may include

⏩ Hot flashes, sleep disturbance, mood swings, depression
⏩ Vaginal dryness and dyspareunia
⏩ Urinary incontinence
⏩ Urinary tract infections.

: *HIGH ESTROGEN LEVELS*

Estrogen may become the dominant hormone without progesterone to complement it. This may lead to a variety of symptoms.

*Symptoms of high estrogen (estrogen dominance)*

⏩ Weight gain
⏩ Decreased sex drive, mood swings, and depression
⏩ PMS, irregular menstrual cycle, heavy bleeding
⏩ Breast tenderness, fibrocystic breasts
⏩ Fibroids, Endometriosis
⏩ Gallbladder problems
⏩ Thyroid dysfunction

> Foods high in fats has been shown to cause obesity, resistance to insulin, ovulatory disorder,
estrogen dominance (Hormonal imbalance) which leads to Uterine Fibroids & infertility.  
: High FSH ruins your eggs, make them low quality and diminishes your egg reserve known as "DOR"- Diminished ovarian reserve.
