1.
Cycle Imbalance (Estrogen Dominance)
Image Source
Your body is struggling to balance oestrogen and progesterone. Based on your answers, your symptoms are most consistent with a cycle-driven hormone imbalance - often called oestrogen dominance or a luteal phase issue. This doesn't necessarily mean your oestrogen is sky-high, but rather that the ratio between oestrogen and progesterone is off.This pattern shows up as: heavy or painful periods, strong PMS, mood swings in the week before your period, breast tenderness, and feeling like a different person depending on where you are in your cycle.The good news? This is one of the most responsive patterns to targeted nutrition support. The right food and lifestyle approach can make a significant difference — often within 2–3 cycles.Ready to understand exactly what's driving your cycle symptoms and what to do about it? ⬇️
2.
Thyroid Pattern

Your thyroid may be working harder than it should - or not hard enough.Based on your answers, your symptoms are consistent with a thyroid pattern. The thyroid is often overlooked because standard blood tests only show part of the picture - and "normal" results don't always mean optimal function.This pattern often looks like: persistent fatigue even with enough sleep, difficulty losing weight, hair thinning, cold hands and feet, brain fog, constipation, and low mood that doesn't shift no matter what you try.Thyroid issues are also closely connected to cycle irregularities and adrenal function, so it's rarely just one thing. A thorough assessment that looks at the full thyroid picture - not just TSH — makes all the difference.Want to find out if your thyroid is part of what's going on? ⬇️
3.
Adrenal Pattern

Your stress system may be driving your hormone symptoms.Based on your answers, your symptoms are consistent with an adrenal or HPA-axis pattern. This doesn't mean your adrenals are "failing" - it means your body's stress response system has been working overtime, and it's now affecting your hormones, energy, sleep and mood.This pattern often looks like: wired but tired, crashing in the afternoon, struggling to fall asleep or waking at 3am, high or low cortisol at the wrong times of day, period irregularities, salt or sugar cravings, and feeling burnt out no matter how much rest you get.The adrenals are deeply connected to your thyroid and sex hormones - so if this system is dysregulated, everything else feels off too.Want to find out how much your stress system is affecting your hormones? ⬇️
4.
Mixed Pattern

More than one hormone system appears to be involved.Based on your answers, your symptoms are spread across multiple hormone systems - your cycle hormones, thyroid, and/or adrenals may all be contributing to what you're experiencing. This is actually more common than you'd think, and it's exactly why a generic approach rarely works.When multiple systems are involved, symptoms can feel confusing and contradictory. You might be exhausted but wired, gaining weight despite eating well, having irregular cycles AND thyroid symptoms - and told everything is "fine" by your GP.This is where a thorough root-cause assessment makes all the difference. Understanding which system to address first - and in what order - is key.Want a clear picture of what's driving your symptoms and where to start? ⬇️
