Many women and men live with low energy, mood swings, and brain fog without realizing hormones are at play. Here’s how to know what’s normal—and what’s not.
As we age, our bodies go through various natural changes, many of which are influenced by hormones. However, hormone imbalance doesn’t have to be a part of aging. Common signs of hormone imbalance, such as fatigue, irregular sleep patterns, hot flashes, and weight gain, can often be addressed with proper diagnosis and treatment.
How Hormones Affect Us
Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate numerous functions in our bodies, including mood, metabolism, and energy levels. When hormone levels fluctuate, whether from perimenopause, menopause, or thyroid imbalances, you might notice more than just the typical signs of aging.
Key Signs of Hormone Imbalance
- Low Energy Feeling exhausted all the time, even after a full night’s sleep, can point to an imbalance in your thyroid, cortisol, or other key hormones.
- Mood Swings & Anxiety If your mood fluctuates drastically or you feel anxiety creeping in more often, hormone levels could be playing a significant role.
- Brain Fog & Memory Problems Struggling with mental clarity, forgetfulness, or difficulty concentrating might be a result of hormonal shifts, particularly around menopause.
- Changes in Sleep Patterns Difficulty falling or staying asleep, even when you’re tired, can be caused by changes in progesterone, estrogen, and cortisol.
