Why Hormones Are the Body’s Messengers
Hormones control everything—from your energy levels and metabolism to mood, sleep, and fertility. When even one hormone falls out of balance, the effects can ripple through your entire body.
At FxMedCare, one of the best functional medicine clinics in Nigeria, we see hormone imbalances not as isolated problems but as signs of deeper root cause issues—often linked to stress, gut health, nutrition, and environmental toxins.
Common Causes of Hormone Imbalance
Functional medicine looks at the why behind the imbalance. The most common root causes include:
Chronic Stress
Prolonged cortisol elevation can disrupt thyroid, reproductive, and sleep hormones.
Poor Gut Health
An imbalanced microbiome affects estrogen metabolism and nutrient absorption.
Nutrient Deficiencies
Low magnesium, vitamin D, B vitamins, and omega-3s impair hormone production.
Toxin Exposure
Plastics, pesticides, and mold act as endocrine disruptors, altering hormone signals.
Blood Sugar Dysregulation
Frequent spikes and crashes can contribute to insulin resistance and PCOS.
Symptoms of Hormone Imbalance
The signs can be subtle—or loud—but they often include:
Fatigue or low energy
Unexplained weight gain or loss
Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
Irregular menstrual cycles or fertility issues
Sleep disturbances
- Hair loss or thinning
- Low libido

Stress Resilience Strategies
