Common Questions and Answers about Hormone imbalance in young women

But I sure would not be on a form of birth control that keeps me from having a monthly period. When they have tested young women who stop having their periods because their body fat gets too low, they have also found decreased bone density. Along with that, have you had your iron levels, estrogen levels, progesterone levels and vitamin D levels tested? Or did the doctor just run a standard panel?
m asking is that do any of you think that these symptoms could be caused by extreme hormone imbalance? No one has ever tested my hormones before. I find it weird that they all started almost a month to the day I quit birth control. Also, my period was never regular when I was younger, I matured late and would sometimes go 6 months without getting my period. I was also anorexic during high school which didn't help. But I am no longer and eat very healthy.
Women who have a healthy hormone balance tend to enjoy their lives the most. Hormone fluctuations can result in several problems such as perimenopausal difficulties, premenstrual syndrome, mood swings, fibroids, heart disease, breast cancer, and ovarian cysts.
Usually, women don’t completely meet what their bodies need—food and exercise to reduce stress and feel better. Diet, nutrition, and workout are some of the common lifestyle changes that can help women restore hormone balance.
Ok, I've been spending my first couple days on this forum over in the anxiety section as I've had anxiety/panic issues for 16 years, but recently I've been having some different issues that are leading me to think that they are not caused by anxiety alone.

I am starting to think I may be suffering from a hormone imbalance as my symptoms seem to go when I start my period. I also suffer from inability to sleep, mood swings cyclical depression, facial hair, hot flushes as well as cold and irregular periods, I am now having 2 periods a month, one really light and short and one a week later that is pretty severe....
Hi There,
You might be better helped to see your gynecologist and go over your reports. While PCOS, polycystic ovarian syndrome, is a real medical diagnosis, this term is used commonly and inappropriately whenever a few cysts are seen in a young woman's ovaries. It is important to see you doctor to be sure that that truly is your diagnosis.
PCOS is a complicated syndrome of insulin resistance, obesity, and ovarian hormone imbalance .
Three months ago I had this same thing happen. I've never in my life missed a period and for weeks and weeks I kept taking an HPT with no results. At last I figured out I was having a "Phantom Pregnany" or hormone imbalance. I've been on the pill for nearly ten years, and a lot of things can cause a hormone imbalance from the water you drink to the things you eat to the pill itself, I learned.
A main underlying problem with PCOS is a hormonal imbalance. In women with PCOS, the ovaries make more androgens than normal. Androgens are male hormones that females also make. High levels of these hormones affect the development and release of eggs during ovulation. Researchers also think insulin may be linked to PCOS. Insulin is a hormone that controls the change of sugar, starches, and other food into energy for the body to use or store.
It could be stress and the change in your body of course! All those things help to delay periods. Also, you are 16 and for young women, missing a period is quite normal. When I was your age I went through the same thing right up until I was about 18 and I also got my period at age 10. My doctor told me it was quite natural and that my body was just trying to find its rhythm and a system that works. I also had lengthy cycles but now I have my period every 28-30 days. Give it time.
Try a diet rich in estrogens. Hormone replacement therapy can also help a few. Worms are another cause of both anal and body itch. Pubic and body lice can be another cause.
I think you should discuss these possibilities with your doctor. It is difficult to comment beyond this without examining. A comprehensive investigation is required keeping all the points in mind.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Vaginal dryness can happen for a number of reasons and I believe the two leading causes are a hormone imbalance and not enough foreplay to get you adequately lubricated.
I had a real problem with dryness as I approached and went through menopause. My husband found many good lubricants that weren't sticky at all. I also believe there are "natural" products available in health food stores and some good co-ops.
