Top 3 Ways to Regulate Hormones and Banish PMS for Good (With Out Birth Control)

We turn to birth control to regulate our menstrual cycles, clear our skin and decrease PMS

symptoms.

 

However, with the increasing evidence of birth control side effects (like increased rates of

depression and stroke), should we not exhaust natural methods of hormone management

first?

 

Symptoms of hormone imbalance include:

• bloating

• heavy periods

• irregular periods

• painful periods

• breast tenderness

• cyclical migraines

• acne

• low libido

• weight gain

• hair loss

 

1. REDUCE INFLAMMATION BY EATING MORE VEGETABLES

   Inflammation causes disruption in the way your hormones are produced. A large contributor

   to inflammation is gluten and dairy in the diet! Try removing breads, cakes, cheese and

   yogurt and instead eat extra veggies! Aim for 8 servings of veggies per day.

   Bonus points if your vegetables are leafy greens (like spinach, kale, collards) which have a

   compound that help with the liver’s detox of excess hormones. The fibre in these

   #plantbased beauties also helps you bind and excrete excess hormone.

2. SWAP SUGAR FOR HEALTHY FAT

   Sugar causes inflammation and worsens hormone imbalance. See #1.

   Sugar also causes fluctuations in blood sugar throughout the day which worsens hormone

   imbalances.

   Make sure you are eating healthy fats is key, as fats are needed as the building blocks of

   hormone production.

   Eat less processed food (things that are white or beige in colour) and load up on healthy

   fats such as wild fish, flax and chia seeds, walnuts and grass fed animal products.

   

3. SLEEP

   Optimal sleep for hormone balance is 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night.

   Tip: Make sure you are getting to be before midnight, as cortisol is regulated then. Bedtime

   around 10pm is ideal.

 

If you are looking for a more detailed framework for how to balance your hormones

naturally, LOOK NO FURTHER.
