Common Causes of Hormone Imbalances
- Medications: certain medications can cause hormone imbalances. Unfortunately many Americans are on a handful of drugs that can cause disruption in your body's overall chemistry.
- Changes and Age: puberty, pregnancy, menopause, and andropause (the change in men as they age).
- Lifestyle Choices: poor diet, lack of physical activity, and insufficient time to sleep (or poor sleep quality) contribute to hormonal imbalances.
- Gland Damage: injury caused by infection, radiation therapy, excessive blood loss, trauma or surgery causing damage or malfunction to glands.
- Endocrine Disruptors: synthetic chemicals in common plastics and even in foods can actually mimic hormones thereby throwing the body's own regulation off into an imbalance.
- Exposure to Toxins: chemotherapy, radiation, and other toxins in our environment can cause hormonal imbalances.
