hormonal imbalance

@hinda Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a place to give and get support.

So that I can connect you with members and discussion appropriately, may I ask what you mean by hormone imbalance? What are the symptoms and their severity and duration?

I'm sleep deprived, Insomnia. I gained 10 lbs and even if I tried dieting the numbers on the scale wouldn't go down. my breasts are the same size now than It was after my baby when I nursed ( I usually go up 2 sizes). I never went down with a size or two as I did by my previous baby. I have pussy pimples on my upper body and neck

I do workout twice a week and walk for 3/4-hour almost every day.

Hi Hinda, You mentioned that you've tried dieting and that you exercise regularly. You might be interested in the discussions in the LCHF Living & Intermittent Fasting here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/lchf-living-intermittent-fasting/

I found this podcast episode 7 of Keto for Woman really informative about hormone imbalances.

Have you discontinued using the NuvaRing? Are you using birth control?

How to control hormonal imbalances?

Hello @sk104 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. There are several natural methods that are known to help with hormonal imbalances. Are you looking to start with lifestyle changes first?

@erikas From my personal experience hormone imbalance is when the reproductive system is not on 100% with estrogen, progestin, and if pregnant HCG. When diets, exercise, meditation, and previously things the body has done for 30 in most women. We loose theses hormones when we are older its hard to make the right choices so the body will imbalance the strength (hormones) leaving a woman half and its affects so much of our day to day I recently had a burnout and imbalance again this is time in another state so I must have be pushing as I did in my hometown in 2003 burnout but now since I am on Progestin I go take the test again Wednesday to prevent that its deadly.

Honda, do you mind telling us your age and whether you are pre, peri or post menopausal. Will make a big difference in the information you receive from others.
