Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Our bodies work under the effect of hormones in a multidisciplinary way. Each organ works under the influence of hormones, which are assigned, and they have multiple roles, like oxytocin and prolactin, which are involved in breastfeeding and mood changes. Thyroid hormone is usually attributed to metabolism and its imbalance, resulting in weight gain or loss, hair loss or growth, hyperactivity, or lethargy.

Many causes keep our bodies from normal functioning, like weight gain or loss, improper diet, lack of exercise, improper sleep, and lifestyle. Treatment can be started after the diagnosis is made.I suggest you follow the instructions below.

Following proper exercise and diet will help balance all the hormones.
Sleep adequately.
Diet for specific conditions can be suggested only after diagnosis, so get tested for the levels of hormones in your body.

Hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
