In today's episode of Superwoman Wellness, I dive deep into the profound impact hormones have on mental health. Join me as I uncover the intricate relationship between hormone shifts and mood swings, explaining how hormonal changes at different life stages affect mental well-being. Discover why understanding and managing your hormonal health is crucial for combating anxiety, depression, and cognitive impairments.

I break down the key hormones involved in mental health, offering insights into how fluctuations in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and cortisol can trigger mental health disorders.
