Understanding Women's Hormonal Health
Hormones play a significant role in various aspects of women's health, affecting mood, energy levels, and reproductive functions. The primary hormones—estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone—serve essential functions throughout different life stages. Estrogen, for instance, is responsible for key developmental traits in females and regulates the menstrual cycle, while progesterone prepares the uterus for pregnancy. Recognizing the importance of these hormones can help women gain insight into their health and well-being, as hormonal imbalances can lead to issues such as PMS, mood swings, or fertility challenges.
