Hormonal Imbalance

The main hormones in females are estrogen and progesterone.

They get produced by the ovaries, adrenal glands, and placenta (during pregnancy only).

Hormonal changes are necessary for various stages of reproductive health and physiological functions.

Many times, hormonal changes are the essential biomarkers for various ailments, disorders and diseases.

  • What is hormone Imbalance?

    Hormone imbalance occurs when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream. Since hormones regulate essential body functions—like metabolism, mood, reproduction, and growth—even a small imbalance can cause noticeable symptoms.

  • What are the main hormones involved in the menstrual cycle?

    Estrogen: This hormone helps regulate the menstrual cycle and is involved in developing female secondary sex characteristics.
    Progesterone: This hormone helps prepare the uterus for pregnancy.
    FSH (Follicle-stimulating hormone): This hormone stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles.
    Prolactin: This is a polypeptide hormone responsible for lactation, breast development, and hundreds of other actions needed to maintain homeostasis.
    Testosterone: Testosterone is an androgen found in both men and women. In female bodies, testosterone is converted quickly into estrogen, while in men it remains mostly as testosterone. In women, testosterone plays a role in reproduction, growth, and general health.
    TSH: The pituitary gland makes thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). TSH tells your thyroid how much thyroid hormone it needs to make. If the thyroid hormone level in your blood is too low, your pituitary gland makes larger amounts of TSH to tell your thyroid to work harder.
    LH (Luteinizing hormone): This hormone triggers ovulation.
