The human body secretes a wide variety of hormones, such as thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, insulin, sex hormones and so on, they each have their own role in regulating the body’s various physiological functions, the lack of or increase will lead to disease and loss of health. Therefore, you have to make up for the lack of them, and you have to lower the amount of them, without intervention. Today we will talk about female hormones. Talking about hormone drugs color change Hormones in the Chinese people’s heart reputation is extremely poor, talking about hormones can be compared to poison. Once a doctor tells a patient that he or she needs hormone medication, the patient’s reaction may be: immediate opposition, sudden rise in fear, anxiety …… Worried about issues such as: great side effects, right? It will give birth to cancer, right? Will it affect fertility? Will you gain weight? Blindly promote the plant hormones Chinese attitude towards hormones is really confusing, the extreme fear of hormone drugs, but the so-called plant hormones are highly respected! Although we do not dare, unwilling to take hormone drugs, but the enthusiasm for plant hormones amazing, propolis, soy milk, soybeans, clams, Pueraria lobata, papaya and so on as if it were a treasure, that it contains hormone-like nutrients, you can beautiful skin and skin care, youth, prolong life. Many people eat propolis every day, drink soy milk, regular punch point Pueraria lobata powder, to go to the hotel point of the clam; out of the country in bulk to buy phytoestrogens health products, given to the seven aunts and aunts, we swallow a large every day without fear of hardship, to calm down the lack of hormones brought about by the fear of aging, the heart of the heart beautifully think that from now on you can keep the function of the ovaries, youth forever! When will the fearfulness stop? This kind of ice and fire attitude is confusing: you know that hormones on the female appearance, reproduction, health protection, why fear hormones? If you are afraid of hormones, why do you eat a lot of the so-called phytoestrogens, hormone-containing foods? …… The reason is: I don’t know, I don’t understand! So let’s learn about hormones and their role, to dispel fears, the correct application, to maintain women’s health! Sex Hormones and Their Roles Female sex hormones include estrogen, progesterone, androgens, and yes, androgens as well! They work together to regulate female growth and development, secondary sexual characteristics, the development and maturation of reproductive organs, and so on, puberty, height growth, female posture, delicate skin, menstruation, childbearing, and so on have to rely on the role of sex hormones, in addition to sex hormones on the skeleton, the heart, metabolism, the brain and so on, have a protective effect. Once the hormone lack, increase or abnormal secretion in reproductive age, it will lead to various problems, such as amenorrhea, menstrual disorders, infertility, abnormal uterine bleeding, etc.; when the estrogen level decreases after menopause, it will lead to atrophy of the reproductive tract, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s disease, and so on, and, of course, there are also thinning of the skin, wrinkles, S-curve, and no longer, old age will come to the decline in the quality of life. Types of sex hormone drugs and their effects In order to treat diseases caused by sex hormone deficiency or secretion disorders, scientists have developed a variety of estrogen and progesterone drugs, including those of natural origin, with the same chemical structure or molecular formula as that of the natural hormones, and also synthetic derivatives with a chemical structure similar to that of natural hormones, and each of them has its own characteristics due to its structural differences, and the doctor will use them according to the characteristics of their effects in the treatment of Different gynecological endocrine disorders, such as amenorrhea, menstrual disorders, abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility, used to protect the fetus, for the prevention of menopausal health problems, when there is a disease and the maintenance of health needs to be applied to the hormone treatment or adjustment, as long as the application of a reasonable, under the guidance of the doctor, the benefits outweighs the drawbacks, there is no need to fear. In addition, we often say that the hormones leading to obesity is mainly glucocorticoids, such as prednisone, cortisone drugs, do not wrong estrogen and progesterone, they rarely have this side effect. What is the difference between hormone drugs and hormone-like health products? Hormone drugs are medicines, which are used for prevention and treatment of diseases; hormone-like health products and health food may have the effect of regulating human body functions, but not for the purpose of treating diseases. Phytoestrogens are mainly categorized into isoflavones, Kumarstein lignans (or lignans), mostly from plants and their seeds. Isoflavonoids are found in almost all kinds of legumes and grains, and are also widely found in Chinese herbs, such as Pueraria Mirifica and Psoralea. Lignans are widely found in cereals, vegetables and fruits. Kumaristanes are mainly found in germinating legumes (e.g. soybean sprouts). Comparison of biological potency between the two: Estrogenic drugs are 1000-100,000 times more biologically effective than plant-based hormones. Take 17-beta estradiol (the estrogen in Fenmautone, completely natural) for example, the potency is 100, and the relative potency of phytoestrogens is only: estrone 0.202, soy isoflavones 0.013, genistein 0.084, estragole 0.061, and spiny mangosteen stalkin 0.0006. We all know from comparing the data that even if these supplements have some hormone-like effects, but Their weak role can not replace the drug, when you lack of hormones or hormone disorders, with phytoestrogens to regulate can be a drop in the bucket. In addition, the current international consensus on perimenopausal hormone replacement therapy still holds that “there is insufficient evidence that phytoestrogens have a definite role in preventing menopause-related symptoms”.
