About this Event
In this interactive class, you will learn a broad overview of how hormones directly impact people born with a uterus/ovaries from puberty to post-menopause.
We discuss how hormones ebb and flow throughout life for people born with a uterus/ovaries. We review how the reproductive hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone) interact with each other and how the hormones insulin, cortisol and oxytocin affect reproductive hormones. This is called the "hormone hierarchy".
If people aren't proactive in keeping hormones in balance throughout their monthly cycle and when their cycle stops, they can experience multiple symptoms. Not only the cramping and bloating many suffer through in PMS, but also fatigue, clotting, brain fog, guilt, depression and so much more. Or, they stop having a period all together, which might seem like a blessing, but their bodies need that detoxification each month in order to stay healthy and fertile.
Additionally, hormone fluctuation and decline through aging brings on symptoms of peri-menopause and post-menopause. We talk through what potential symptoms are -- it is way more than hot flashes, moodiness and weight gain. Symptoms can also include tooth loss, vaginal atrophy, incontinence, candida, depression and so much more. Awesome, right?! NOT! Not for those going through it and not for those around them.
We will wrap up with an overview of strategies to support those in your life that go through their cycle each month and those going through peri and post-menopause.
This class is intended for people born without a uterus/ovaries who want to understand and support those who were.
