Speaking of...I have something else helpful for you!
It’s easy to blame every single symptom on hormones, but the reality is that it can come from other dysfunction in your body systems as well…nighttime awakening can be due to inadequacy in your liver’s ability to detox, feeling foggy headed can be due to blood sugar instability and insulin resistance.
I developed an excellent tool for you! The System Dysfunction - Hormone Disruption symptom checklist helps you take a Functional Medicine approach, recognizing that various systems within your body - including gut health, detoxification, adrenal function, metabolic health, thyroid function, and hormone health - are interconnected and play a crucial role in hormonal harmony. By pinpointing symptoms associated with each system, you can gain valuable insights into areas that may need attention and support.
