Dr. Aviva Romm Unpacks Hormonal Health Challenges for Women
“We can actually parallel [women's hormone health changes] to a few things: increases in stress, increases in endocrine disruptors in our environment, which our grandmothers did not have to face and changes in our diet. But, also, some things that come along with our food that aren't just food, like sugar, artificial ingredients, and also those herbicides and pesticides, they can have a really big impact.”
Ever wondered why hormonal issues seem so common among women? Dr. Aviva Romm, a Yale-trained, board-certified family physician, dives into this very topic in her enlightening episode on 'American Medicine Today Radio'. With her new book, 'Hormone Intelligence', as a backdrop, Dr. Romm discusses how stress, environmental factors, and diet contribute to hormonal imbalances that affect 80% of women at some point in their lives.
She also sheds light on the often-overlooked side effects of birth control pills and suggests alternative treatments like lifestyle and dietary changes. Dr. Romm goes beyond just the symptoms, exploring the connections between diet and hormonal acne, early puberty in young girls, and even how Covid-related stress can exacerbate hormonal issues. Whether you're dealing with these challenges yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical insights and hope for better hormone health.
