Hormonal disruptions are one of the most frequent problems that a modern woman faces. Insufficient or excessive production of even one single hormone affects the entire body of a woman. Especially serious are those failures, which are caused by deviations from the norm of sex hormones.
Since it is impossible to normalize the hormonal background without consulting a specialist, first of all it is necessary to find a competent gynecologist-endocrinologist. He will be able to make an accurate diagnosis on the basis of submitted tests and complaints, and then appoint the appropriate treatment.
Normalization of the hormonal background in women requires a responsible approach, since a woman is a future or established mother, and the condition of her hormonal background largely depends on whether she will be able to conceive and endure the baby.
Tablets for normalizing the hormonal background
Normalization of the hormonal background is most often done by taking medication. As a rule, these are synthetic hormones that fill the deficiency of the woman's own hormones or suppress the excessive production of certain hormones. Prescribe these drugs should only a doctor. Many women do not immediately agree to taking such medications, but we must remember that hormonal imbalance is a serious problem that needs to be addressed on time and only with the connection of medications.
Vitamins for normalizing the hormonal background are a safe and relatively effective method. Nevertheless, in most cases they do not allow to solve the main problem, but only smooth out the manifestations or consequences of imbalance. Vitamins are most useful when an unstable hormonal background is caused by external causes - stress, lack of sleep, for example.
Supplements for normalizing the hormonal background are often appointed by gynecologists-endocrinologists, but their action can not be curative. It is more similar to the effect of vitamins on the female body, and therefore rely only on dietary supplements is not worth it.
Diet for normalizing the hormonal background
Some doctors recommend using the method of proper nutrition to restore the hormonal background. For example, to normalize the level of thyroid hormones it is recommended to include in the daily diet various seafood, dates, persimmons, currants, spinach, prunes. For the normal production of the sleep hormone, you need to increase the fiber content in food and reduce the consumption of alcohol and caffeine. To restore ovarian production of estradiol, one of the main female hormones, you should consume more meat, fish, eggs, while reducing consumption of flour products, the fiber of which removes estradiol from the body. To eliminate the lack of progesterone, you can use rose hips, citrus fruits, black currants.

There are still some ways how to normalize the hormonal background of a woman. In particular, the first thing to include in the system to combat hormonal imbalance is the right sleep. It must be deep, calm and correct in time (that is, not less than 8 hours a day).
