· Cortisol, the main adrenal hormone, is made from progesterone, so every molecule of cortisol you produce when you are under stress depletes your progesterone levels.

· The more stress you are under the more female hormone imbalances will occur as your progesterone levels drop.

· PMS symptoms like cramping, sweet cravings, mood swings and irritability will respond really well to a lab based adrenal hormone program. As we normalize cortisol levels, progesterone levels will improve.

· Progesterone is the pro-gestational hormone, it keeps the uterine lining intact through the second half of the menstrual cycle

· Peri-menopausal and menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, memory problems and mood swings are caused by a drop in estrogen.

· Estrogen is made from DHEA, one of the major adrenal hormones, so the more exhausted the adrenal glands become the more low estrogen symptoms women develop.

· If we test and correct your cortisol and DHEA levels with an adrenal stress test your female hormone related symptoms will improve significantly. For many patients they go away completely.
