Your Hormone Type: Focus on Progesterone and Cortisol
You’ve been dealing with a lot! You never give up on yourself and you KNOW there’s better health around the corner. You are more the symptoms you deal with on the regular. Headaches, low libido, poor sleep, fatigue, sore boobs, and mood swings don't define you. You just need someone to partner with you to get the results you’ve been dreaming of.Progesterone is the often overlooked hormone that could use some of the limelight. Progesterone is so important because it lifts our our mood, impacts our libido, and opposes estrogen.The thing with low progesterone is it causes higher estrogen aka. estrogen dominance. Progesterone and estrogen are dance partners that need to be kept in balance with each other or you can end up with fibroids, endometriosis, heavier cycles, cysts and cystic breasts.The good news is if you can focus on your progesterone, those two hormones will become more balanced! You'll have less mood swings, better sex, sleep better and become more fertile with a healthier, more predictable cycle.One of my biggest suggestions for Progesterone production is to predict and manage stress. High levels of stress, or the inability to manage stress, causes our body to create more Cortisol, the fight or flight hormone. When we make Cortisol, our body can not make Progesterone, making us progesterone deficient.Cortisol literally kills progesterone production.The next time you feel stressed or anxious ask yourself these questions.Why Do I feel this way? What's triggering this feeling?I can't control others, but I can control my responses. How can I respond to this in a way that I get the end result I desire?Taking deep breaths for 1-2 minutes or face tapping can help break the surge of cortisol. Breathing in essential oils or doing light exercises or stretching helps to lower cortisol as well - protecting our Progesterone levels.🌟LETS DO THIS BETTER🌟In the Happy Hormone Lab, we spend 8 weeks together tracking your symptoms, helping your nutrition, and getting you into the right habits for your best hormone harmony.See you in the lab! 🌱Hello friend!
