Women’s Hormones

Adolescent hormones, fertility, perimenopause and menopause; these are all a part of a woman’s life cycle.

Where you’re at …

Are you struggling to get your menstrual cycle back on track? Possibly after taking the contraceptive pill, recovering from an eating disorder, a long illness or you’ve been given a polycystic ovarian syndrome diagnosis (PCOS). You feel as though you are not glowing, your energy is impaired & sugar cravings are up. Fertility is on your mind, either for now or in the future.

OR

You’re at a transition point in life, starting the perimenopausal journey (maybe with an adolescent daughter starting menstruation?) Parts of you are feeling fearful & insular, there are some very anxious times. Head can be very foggy, decision making difficult & at times you’re quick to anger. Lots of PMS symptoms (tender breasts, abdominal cramping, bloating & lose bowels) & yet a waning & unpredictability around periods. Sleeping can feel torturous. Hot flushes/flashes wake you in the night or strike through the day and leave you feeling washed out, embarrassed and soaked through. Joints are sore & weight is a challenge, either holding onto it or losing it. Libido is low.

The problems you have right now …

  • Unpredictable menstruation
  • Abdominal cramping
  • Mood swings
  • Fear & anxiety
  • Bloating
  • Breast tenderness
  • Skin (pimples, whiteheads, jawline acne, large hormonal spot/s)
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Loss of libido
  • Sore joints
  • Sweats
  • Broken sleep

What you need help with right now …

Is to give you some respite from pain & discomfit. To regain your inner calm, sense of direction & decision making. To have quality sleep, therefore increasing your energy levels & ability to cope, this also changes the ways the body holds onto weight. To clear elimination path ways so that the body can naturally detox.

How can working with Paula help you?

Women’s hormones need the right combination of minerals and vitamins. By addressing your diet, we can establish what’s missing and introduce it via food and/or supplements. My expected outcome is emotional balance & understanding of what the body needs and is going through. An improvement in skin and hair quality. A reduction in cramping and other physical discomforts through the joints. Less or infrequent hot flushes or night sweats. Improved sleep routines and a recalibration of weight.
“I feel like someone finally understands me and what I’m going through. After a week, there was change. After a month, I’m feeling so much better with my menstrual cycle. I am back on track after years of hiding from my period by taking the pill for PMS.”

“I came to Paula to sort out my perimenopausal weight. What actually happened was an improvement in my circulation and less hot flushes. My weight is reducing and I want to get out to walk my dog. Before I had to and she and I were getting fatter and fatter.”
