Menstrual disorders are often closely related to women's health. Imbalances in female hormones can lead to irregular periods and painful menstruation. Let's take a look at the specific symptoms of female hormonal imbalances.
Symptoms of hormonal imbalances:
1. Irregular menstruation
Normally, the amount of menstrual flow is consistent each month. If the flow is too heavy or too light, it may be due to hormonal imbalances. This can be caused by excessive or insufficient secretion of estrogen by the ovaries, resulting in irregular menstrual flow. Menstrual pain and amenorrhea are also often related to hormonal imbalances.
2. Infertility
Women who have been married for more than 3 years, have normal sexual activity, but are unable to conceive may be experiencing hormonal imbalances. The reason behind this is that hormonal imbalances affect the regulation of the endocrine system by the cerebral cortex. It can also result in damage to the endometrium, causing insensitivity to female hormones and reflexively affecting the regulation of the endocrine system, reducing the chances of successful conception.
3. Breast tenderness and fibrocystic breast
Breast tenderness and fibrocystic breast are mainly caused by hormonal imbalances. The breasts play an important role in promoting growth and development through the secretion of estrogen. Therefore, when there is an imbalance or disorder in hormone levels, it can easily lead to fibrocystic breast and breast cancer.
4. Acne problems
Women are more prone to acne during menstrual irregularities. This is because during the menstrual cycle, there is an increase in the secretion or activity of male hormones, leading to increased sebum production and blockage of facial pores, resulting in the formation of acne.
5. Obesity
Obesity is often associated with hormonal imbalances. In general, hormonal imbalances can affect fat metabolism, which is why some individuals gain weight even when consuming little food. Therefore, individuals with balanced hormones are less likely to become obese.
How to regulate hormonal imbalances:
1. Avoid staying up late
2. Massage anytime, anywhere
3. Avoid fast food and toxins
4. Consume more soybeans
5. Take baths
Dietary therapy for treating hormonal imbalances:
1. Seaweed and coix seed porridge
Cook an equal amount of seaweed, kelp, and sweet almonds together with water to make a decoction. Then, add 30 grams of coix seed to cook the porridge. Consume once a day for three weeks.
2. Kelp and mung bean soup
Kelp and mung bean soup can help prevent and treat acne and regulate hormonal imbalances. Prepare 15 grams of kelp, 15 grams of mung beans, 9 grams of sweet almonds, and 6 grams of rose petals. Put the rose petals in a cloth bag and cook them together with the other ingredients. Finally, add brown sugar to taste.
3. Loquat leaf paste
Wash 1 kilogram of fresh loquat leaves, remove the hair, and boil them in 8000 milliliters of water for 3 hours. Filter the liquid and continue to boil until it becomes a paste. Add honey and mix well, then store in a bottle. Take 15 grams each time. Loquat leaf paste can help clear heat, dissolve phlegm, and is suitable for patients with acne and rosacea caused by hormonal imbalances.
4. Carrot and celery juice
Carrot and celery juice can help clear heat and detoxify. Mix one carrot, 150 grams of celery, and one onion, wash them, and blend into juice for consumption.
