    Hormones are important because they impact almost every element of your life.

    Growing up, I always associated hormones with sex. But in my PCOS journey, I’ve learned that hormones are the mover and shakers of our mind, body, and soul. Hormonal issues often lead to sickness, mental health, financial, and spiritual issues.

    ✨ The good news is that with God, research, and small consistent changes, we can heal our bodies and reverse hormonal issues.

    The beginning of your healing starts with gaining wisdom. In this blog, we will discuss hormones and their impact.

    “The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it will cost all you have, get understanding.”

    Proverbs 4:7

    What Are Hormones?

    💬 Hormones are like messengers that tell your body what to do. When your hormones are out of whack, it causes everything else to fall apart in your body.

    Which results in health struggles like diabetes, heart attacks, sleep issues, PCOS, and infertility. 

    🧪 More specifically, hormones are chemicals that send messages throughout your body. These messages control your body’s basic functions. 

    Why Should You Care?

    Our hormones control our bodily functions. So, when our hormones are unbalanced, it risks our entire bodily functions, for example, motor issues, brain activity, fertility issues, and so much more. 😌

    Hormonal imbalances often lead to:

    • Major health issues like diabetes, fertility issues, PCOS, osteoporosis, and heart disease.
    • Major mental health issues like depression, anxiety, lack of clarity, and bad decision-making.
    • Major financial issues like doctor bills, excessive over-the-counter medicine, and major debt.
    • Major faith issues like unbelief in God, lack of trust, and doubting God’s faithfulness.
    • Major overall issues stack up one by one until we’re in a downward spiral.

    ✨ But, the good news is that, with God, you can overcome any obstacle. It’s time to take your health and power back!

    “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind,” (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV).

    What do Hormones Control?

    Hormones impact so many of our day-to-day health functions.

    1. Metabolism: Hormones determine your energy levels, digestion, and ability to lose or maintain weight.
    2. Reproduction: Hormones are directly responsible for fertility, sperm quality, egg quality, periods, and menopause.
    3. Homeostasis: Hormones control blood sugar, blood pressure, fluids, electrolyte balance, and body temperature.
    4. Growth & development: Hormones determine how your body will grow and age.
    5. Sex functions: Hormones impact sex drive, erectile dysfunction, arousal, and overall sexual satisfaction.
    6. Mental Capacity: They impact sleep-wake window, mood, anxiety, stress levels, and brain fog.
