For the low progesterone girlies 🫶

your PMS & periods could be sooo much better if your progesterone was balanced 🫶🏻

low progesterone can cause painful periods, heavy periods, irregular periods, anxiety, depression, insomnia, bloating, weight gain, headaches & migraines

it’s sooo common for women to have low progesterone too! Here’s what we can do:

1) prioritize quality sleep — our bodies need rest to repair & one bad nights sleep can spike cortisol 😅 have an hour without your phone before bed, take magnesium & adaptogen supplements, or do a sleep meditation.

2) eat food that boosts progesterone — food high in zinc, vitamin c, vitamin b, magnesium, healthy fats

3) do low impact exercise — high intensity workouts can spike cortisol which can reduce progesterone! Try Pilates, yoga, resistance training, strength training, walking, swimming, etc.

4) manage stress — again, cortisol reduces progesterone!! We need to balance cortisol & learn to regulate our nervous system. Adaptogens are also helpful!

5) take supplements — omega 3’s, magnesium, vitamin d, rhodiola, ginger & turmeric

you have the power to balance your hormones!! Hope this helps 🫶🏻
