It’s estimated that over 80% of women in the United States suffer from some sort of hormonal imbalance. Thanks to the insane amount of chemicals and added hormones found in our food, beauty products, and household cleaners, women are surrounded by more endocrine disruptors than ever before. Issues like PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) and endometriosis are rampant, and hysterectomies are currently the second most common surgery among women in the United States; what’s worse is the fact that, according to some experts, two-thirds of those hysterectomies are unnecessary.
Whether you’re suffering from “minor” imbalances, like PMS, bad menstrual cramps, and acne, or you’ve been diagnosed with a severe condition like PCOS and suffer from insulin resistance and hirsutism (male pattern hair growth in women caused by high levels of androgens in the blood stream), there’s HOPE for healing. These resources have helped thousands of women get their life back and their hormones under control WITHOUT surgery and medication.
