#NMN and #hormones are two important topics in the realm of #health and #wellness. One particular aspect of this topic that is gaining attention is the effect of #NAD+ on various hormones such as #estrogen, #testosterone, #melatonin, and #thyroid hormone. NAD+ is a coenzyme that plays a critical role in cellular metabolism and energy production. Studies have shown that NAD+ supplementation can have a positive impact on hormone levels, especially in aging individuals. #Estrogen is a hormone primarily associated with reproductive health in women. NAD+ has been shown to increase estrogen levels in postmenopausal women, which can help alleviate symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes and night sweats. #Testosterone, on the other hand, is a hormone primarily associated with male reproductive health. NAD+ has been shown to increase testosterone levels in men, which can help improve muscle mass, bone density, and overall physical performance. #Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. NAD+ has been shown to increase melatonin production, which can help improve sleep quality, especially in individuals with sleep disorders. #Thyroid hormone plays a crucial role in metabolism and energy production. NAD+ has been shown to improve thyroid function, which can help boost energy levels and improve overall metabolic health. In conclusion, NAD+ supplementation can have a positive impact on hormone levels, especially in aging individuals. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any supplementation regimen. #healthylifestyle #antiaging #hormonalhealth #wellnessjourney

Hormones are tiny messengers that travel through our bloodstream, delivering important information to our cells and organs. 📣 Understanding what these hormones do and how they work is essential to maintaining good health. ⬇️ ✔️ Estrogen is primarily produced in the ovaries and plays a crucial role in the female reproductive system. In addition to regulating the menstrual cycle, estrogen plays a role in bone health, mood, sleep and more. ✔️ Progesterone is important for female reproductive health. It helps prepare the body for pregnancy and is essential for maintaining a healthy pregnancy. It also supports mood, sleep, and thyroid function. ✔️ Cortisol is often referred to as the "stress hormone" because it's released in response to stress. It helps regulate blood sugar levels and blood pressure. When cortisol levels are chronically high, it can lead to health issues like weight gain, high blood pressure, and immune system dysfunction. ✔️ Insulin is produced by the pancreas and helps regulate blood sugar levels. When we eat, our bodies break down carbohydrates into glucose, which then enters our bloodstream. Insulin helps our cells absorb glucose, which they use for energy. Without adequate insulin or when the cells become insulin-resistant, blood sugar level rise, leading to diabetes. ✔️ T4 and T3 are thyroid hormones essential for regulating metabolism, body temperature, and heart rate. When thyroid hormone levels are too high or too low, it can lead to health issues like weight issues, fatigue, gut problems and mood disturbances. ✔️ Ghrelin is often referred to as the "hunger hormone" because it stimulates appetite and promotes fat storage. Ghrelin is produced in the stomach and signals the brain when it's time to eat. When we're hungry, our ghrelin levels increase, and when we're full, they decrease. ✔️ Leptin is a hormone that's produced by fat cells and helps regulate appetite and metabolism. It signals the brain when we're full, reducing our appetite and helping us maintain a healthy weight. When leptin levels are too low, it can lead to overeating and weight gain.

Have you heard of a Cortisol Steal? Did you know that our body's stress hormone, cortisol, can actually compete with our reproductive hormones? 😱 This phenomenon is known as the "Cortisol Steal," and it can have some surprising effects on our menstrual health. #CortisolSteal When we experience chronic stress, our cortisol levels can become elevated, which triggers our body to divert resources away from producing other important hormones like progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen. This diversion can lead to an imbalance in our hormones, causing a range of health issues. The Cortisol Steal may contribute to menstrual irregularities, fertility challenges, and even symptoms of menopause. It's essential for hormone health to find ways to manage and reduce stress in our daily lives. 😌 So, how can we combat the Cortisol Steal? 🛡️ Incorporating techniques like regular time outside, mindfulness practices, and sufficient sleep can help lower cortisol levels and restore hormonal harmony. Remember, self-care isn't just a buzzword – it's a key aspect of maintaining our hormonal health and overall vitality. Take time for yourself, prioritize relaxation, and seek support when needed. Let's establish that hormonal balance and reclaim control over our well-being! 🌟 #HormonalHarmony #SelfCareIsKey 👇 Drop a comment below to let us know if you've heard of the Cortisol Steal or if you have any questions about hormone health! 💬 Our community is here to support each other on this journey towards a balanced and vibrant life!

If you've been paying attention to ever evolving world of gut health science over the past few years, you'll be well aware that your digestive system does far more than simply break down food. That there is a dialogue between your brain and your intestines, for example, is now widely known: with the gut:brain connection responsible for managing stress, mood and motility. There's other curious links between the system and other parts of your body, too, though. One is the gut:hormone axis. Ever experienced changes to your digestion around your menstrual cycle? If so, that's the connection in action. 'The gut hormone axis refers to the two-way relationship between your gut microbiome and your hormones, which can include everything including the female sex hormone oestrogen, the stress hormone cortisol and your hunger and fullness hormones ghrelin and leptin,' Dr Emily Leeming, a microbiome scientist and author of Genius Gut, tells WH. #womenshealth #femtech #healthtech #digitalhealth #healthcare #healthcareinnovation #startups #innovation #health #medtech #healthcareresearch #femalehealth #genderhealthgap #reproductivehealth #venturecapital #vc #funding #investment #grants #maternalhealth #periods #menstruation #sexualhealth #sextech #menopause #fertility #pregnancy #postpartum #eggfreezing #IVF #healthequity #pelvicfloor #pelvicfloorhealth #hormonehealth

𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝗼𝗱𝘆'𝘀 𝗚𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗴𝘂𝗲? It Could Be Hormones. Hormonal imbalances can wreak havoc on your well-being, impacting everything from your metabolism to your mental state. As an OBS-GYN, I see the frustrating effects of hormonal imbalances every day. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙬𝙨? You're not at the mercy of these fluctuations. By understanding your hormones and working with a qualified healthcare professional, you can regain control and create a symphony of optimal health. Think of your hormones as a highly coordinated band. Each hormone plays a specific role, influencing everything from your menstrual cycle and metabolism to sleep and mood. When this intricate dance gets disrupted, the entire performance suffers. 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗺𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀, 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: 🏹Irregular periods or heavy bleeding 🏹Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight 🏹Fatigue and low energy 🏹Difficulty sleeping or restless sleep 🏹Irritability, mood swings, or anxiety 🏹Vaginal dryness and decreased libido 🏹Skin issues like acne or breakouts While hormonal fluctuations are often associated with menopause, they can impact women throughout their lives. From puberty and the menstrual cycle to pregnancy and perimenopause, understanding your hormones is crucial for maintaining optimal health. Ignoring hormonal imbalances can lead to a domino effect of health complications, including: ❗Increased risk of heart disease and certain cancers ❗Bone loss and osteoporosis ❗Fertility issues ❗Depression and anxiety ❗Cognitive decline Fortunately, there's no need to navigate the complexities of hormones alone. Here at our center - we work with you to create a personalized plan for restoring hormonal balance. #HormoneHarmony #BalanceYourBody #HormonesInCheck #RegainYourRhythm #OptimalHealthJourney

A – Aging B - Bone health C - Hormone Changes D - Depression E - Estrogen Decline Changes in hormone levels define perimenopause and menopause. When we are menstruating, the amount of estrogen rises and falls throughout our cycle. Different women will have different experiences. Athletes, particularly those competing at an elite level, may experience low estrogen and disruption to menstruation. As we enter perimenopause, the level of estrogen rises and falls in a more uneven pattern. It may change the length of menses and the pattern of ovulation. As we enter menopause, estrogen levels drop. As we age, the levels of two other hormones also lower: Progesterone and testosterone. Progesterone stops during menstrual cycles and after one’s final period. Testosterone levels peak when women are in their 20s and decline slowly thereafter. Testosterone is at half of its peak at menopause. We can eat foods that contain phytoestrogens to supplement our natural loss of estrogen. Phytoestrogens are primarily found to have positive health effects, but research is ongoing. Sources include flaxseeds, soybeans and edamame, dried fruits, sesame seeds, garlic, peaches, berries, wheat bran, and cruciferous veggies like broccoli. I replaced my formerly beloved half-and-half with flaxseed milk for my coffee and have never looked back. According to Healthline, “limited research suggests that a high intake of phytoestrogens may be associated with some risks and complications. These findings are mixed and inconclusive, so more human research is necessary.” As always, consult with your doctor for specific guidance.

Are you struggling with fertility issues or metabolic health concerns? Are you tired of feeling sluggish and out of balance? Well, I have some good news for you - exercise can be the key to improving both your fertility and metabolic health! Research has shown that regular exercise can have a positive impact on fertility by balancing hormones and optimizing metabolism. Let's break it down and understand how this works. Firstly, exercise helps to balance hormones by reducing the levels of stress hormones such as cortisol and increasing the levels of feel-good hormones like endorphins. This is important because high levels of stress hormones can disrupt the delicate balance of reproductive hormones, leading to irregular periods and ovulation problems. Moreover, exercise can also help to regulate insulin levels, which is crucial for metabolic health. Insulin is a hormone that helps to regulate blood sugar levels, and when it is not functioning properly, it can lead to conditions like PCOS and diabetes. By exercising regularly, you can improve your body's sensitivity to insulin, making it easier to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. But that's not all - exercise also plays a vital role in optimizing metabolism. When we exercise, our muscles use up energy, which helps to burn calories and maintain a healthy weight. This is important because being overweight or obese can negatively impact fertility and increase the risk of metabolic disorders. In addition to these benefits, exercise also helps to improve blood flow and oxygen delivery to the reproductive organs, which can enhance fertility. It also boosts the immune system, reduces inflammation, and improves overall well-being, all of which are essential for a healthy reproductive system. So, what are you waiting for? It's time to lace up those sneakers and get moving! Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise, five days a week. This can include activities like brisk walking, jogging, cycling, or even dancing. Find something that you enjoy and make it a part of your daily routine. Remember, exercise is not just about physical appearance, it's about taking care of your body and mind. By investing in your health and making exercise a priority, you are empowering yourself and taking charge of your well-being. #ExerciseIsMedicine and it's time to #EmpowerYourself and #TakeChargeOfYourHealth. Start incorporating regular exercise into your #WellnessJourney and see the positive impact it has on your #FertilityJourney. Remember, #HealthyHabits lead to a #StrongAndHealthy body and mind. So, #InvestInYourself and never give up on your #FitnessGoals. You deserve to feel your best, so let's make exercise a #HealthyLifestyle choice. #NeverGiveUp on your journey towards #BalanceHormones and #OptimiseMetabolism. Let's #FitnessMotivation each other and create a community of #SelfCare and #BodyAndMind wellness. Together, we can achieve anything!

Treated 750+ patients in Thyroid, Hairloss, Gut &Skin diseases without any side effects through my "Health DNA cloning" method/ DM Me To Book Your Consultation
Why are irregular periods so prevalent in today's world? Six indicators have been identified in our patients: 📍 Working late into the night or night shifts; - Working night shifts can increase stress levels, which in turn can elevate cortisol levels. - High cortisol can interfere with the production of reproductive hormones, leading to irregular periods. 📍 Persistent sadness and stress - Stress can affect thyroid function, which plays a significant role in regulating menstrual cycles. - Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can lead to menstrual irregularities. 📍Strenuous exercise during menstruation - Intense exercise can cause inflammation and increase levels of inflammatory markers in the body. - This can impact the HPO axis and alter menstrual cycles. 📍Crunchy, crispy snacks. frequent - High sugar and fat intake can lead to insulin resistance, which affects the balance of reproductive hormones like estrogen and progesterone. - These snacks often lack essential nutrients, leading to deficiencies that can affect overall hormonal health and menstrual regularity. 📍Intense sexual activity - Repeated strenuous intercourse can lead to irregular menses by disrupting hormonal balance, elevating cortisol levels, causing physical trauma, inducing fatigue, and potentially interfering with ovulation. 📍Weight increase or decrease - Significant weight gain or loss can affect hormone production and lead to irregular periods. 🌀 An exposed wound that isn't allowed to heal during the painful days of the month is like a leaky, bleeding ulcer. - Years later, when stressed, it reacts fiercely, resulting in unbalanced hormone levels, erratic bleeding, severe mood swings, and excessive bleeding associated with PMS or PMDD !!! 📍Anything that puts too much mental, physical, or mental stress affects the uterus and its hormones. 📍Excessive dryness or a Vata imbalance can hinder the production of estrogen and progesterone, which are mainly steroid hormones produced by the reproductive organs through the HPO axis. 🙂Therefore, getting enough sleep and avoiding sexual activity are crucial !!! #menstrualhealth
