Hormone Intelligence: The Complete Guide to Calming Hormone Chaos and Restoring Your Body's Natural Blueprint for Well-Being

We are in the midst of a hidden hormone epidemic--one in which an extraordinary number of women of all ages and life stages--at least 80 percent--will struggle with a hormone problem in their lifetime. Yet the medical establishment is willing to chalk this up to a "new normal" or "no big deal," and advise women to "just take the Pill" or "have the surgery."

But it is a big deal.

In her groundbreaking new work, Hormone Intelligence, Yale-trained, board-certified family physician and women's health expert Aviva Romm, MD, connects the many societal, nutritional, environmental, and interpersonal influences that impact and disrupt our highly sensitive, yet perfectly designed, hormone signals. Every aspect of life influences hormonal health--from genetics, diet, microbiome, and endocrine disruptors to the incessant stressors of living in a world that was not designed to honor women's inherent rhythms. And it's taking a scientifically proven toll on women's bodies in the form of hormone imbalances, distressing period symptoms, endometriosis, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), infertility, fibroids, acne, IBS, early or difficult menopause, early puberty, sleep problems, depression, and so much more.

Being a woman is not a diagnosis. Within us is an ancient blueprint meant to orchestrate our hormones. Dr. Romm calls this our Hormone Intelligence--the interconnecting pathways between our brain, ovaries, uterus, and even vagina, with our thyroid and adrenal glands and digestive, detoxification, and immune systems. Featuring a six-week program for realigning these pathways, plus personalized protocols for getting to the root causes of key hormonal and gynecologic problems while addressing symptoms, Hormone Intelligence is a gift to women everywhere. It's the exhale you've been waiting for, and the first step on the road to reclaiming your body, hormones, and vibrant self.
