Hormonal Imbalance
Hormones regulate a wide range of biological activities, from your energy levels and mood to your reproductive wellness and metabolism. However, the delicate balance of hormones is easily disturbed, resulting in hormone imbalances that can reveal themselves in a variety of ways.
Understanding the complexities of hormone imbalance is the key to restoring equilibrium in your life, whether you're dealing with irregular menstruation cycles, mood swings, or unresolved weight fluctuations.
Understanding Hormonal Imbalance: Why It Happens
Your body uses hormones as chemical messengers. These potent chemicals are produced in the endocrine glands and circulate throughout your bloodstream, instructing tissues and organs on what to perform. They support the regulation of numerous important bodily functions, such as reproduction and metabolism.
A hormonal imbalance occurs when you have an excess or deficit of a particular hormone. Even the smallest modifications can have a significant impact on your entire body. Your hormone levels may change throughout the course of your lifetime due to regular ageing.
However, when your endocrine glands follow the wrong formulation, other changes take place.

TCM Theory
Rarely do hormonal imbalances happen abruptly. They are signs of some long-term habits that ultimately leave the body out of balance.
The idea of Yin and Yang is central to Traditional Chinese Medicine's understanding of preserving hormonal balance. These two contrasting natures must coexist in harmony. Hormonal imbalances can happen when there is too much of either Yin or Yang in the body.
