While treatments provided by Wells Medicine do not have an impact on hormones, hormone regulation can have a great impact on your mood. The more you can do outside the clinic to work with your hormones and better understand them, the greater control you will feel. Medications, supplements, and lifestyle choices can provide chemical assistance in regulating your hormones to keep them more stable. It is also important to take the time to understand how your menstrual cycle influences your mood to better predict and account for how it will impact your daily life.
It can be helpful to work your life around what you know to expect with your cycle. For example, you can avoid overbooking your schedule or build in extra time for yourself during the days you know you will be more prone to stress. It is important to have realistic expectations for yourself and to avoid being overly critical when you understand the hormonal reasons behind how you feel. Additionally, the ability to recognize the times when turmoil is directly caused or exacerbated by your cycle allows you to reassure yourself that it will end.
