Your hormones don’t stay the same throughout the month. 🌸 And understanding these hormonal changes can help you understand your body better! Both men and women experience hormonal fluctuations, but women experience more noticeable hormonal changes throughout the menstrual cycle. Throughout your cycle, four major hormones fluctuate: 🌸 Estrogen – Supports energy, mood, and reproductive health. 🌸 Progesterone – Supports sleep, relaxation, and the second half of your cycle. 🌸 LH (Luteinizing Hormone) – Triggers ovulation. 🌸 FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) – Helps follicles develop and supports egg maturation. These hormonal changes can influence: ✨ Energy and mood ✨ Appetite and food cravings ✨ Sleep quality ✨ Workout performance and recovery ✨ Periods and ovulation ✨ Fertility and reproductive health Here’s something important to remember: Your body doesn’t function the same way every single day. Your energy, appetite, mood, and physical performance can change throughout your menstrual cycle. And a 28-day cycle is just an example. Every woman’s cycle and hormonal patterns can be different. Understanding your hormones isn’t about restricting yourself during certain phases. It’s about learning to work WITH your body instead of against it. 🤍 📌 Save this post as a reminder to understand your menstrual cycle! disclaimer educational purposes only medical knowledge #HormoneHealth #WomensHealth #MenstrualCycle #HormoneBalance #pcosawareness - @drabs90
