Period symptoms that we need to stop normalizing!
For far too long women have put up with period problems and been told that they are completely normal, just part of the cycle and "they will pass". But every single one of the symptoms listed below are a result of imbalanced and irregular hormones.
-Extreme Fatigue: Slightly lower energy is normal but you shouldn’t be feeling like you can’t even get out of bed!
-Mood Swings: Your mood should NOT be going through major ebs and flows prior to and during your period!
-Acne & Breakouts: Breakouts timed around your period are a direct result of imbalanced hormones!
-Extreme Bloating: You should not be experiencing extreme water retention prior to your period!
-Period Pain: Your period may cause slight discomfort but you shouldn’t be bedridden by the pain!
-Heavy Periods & Clotting: A heavy flow day is normal but not heavy or prolonged periods and you shouldn’t be passing clots!
Your period should be free of irritability, acne, bloat, extreme fatigue, pain, clots! Ideally, you should be basically symptom free that you don't even really feel it coming. It’s just here! 🩸
Acupuncture, herbs & lifestyle modifications tailored to you help create a healthy symptom free period by balancing and regulating the hormones, improving blood circulation which keeps the body’s energy flowing efficiently, and can even lessen the intensity and duration of your period.
Wishing you a healthy period,
Better Balance
