Learn how to come to grips with your hormones. Once we understand how hormones function and how certain foods can help regulate them, we can get them to work to our advantage. Most hormonal disorders such as endometriosis, pre-menstrual stress and polycystic ovarian syndrome result from an oestrogen dominance. Even Brest cancer has links with it. It is there fore, useful to know how to maintain our hormonal levels through an optimal diet and lifestyle.
- Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
They're rich in anti-oxidants that neutralize free radicals in our body. Have 2 - 3 fruits each day and include plenty of salads/cooked vegetables in your diet.
- Eat complex carbs.
Switch from white to brown - wholewheat bread, brown rice, oats, ragi, bajra, jowar, rye, and buckwheat. Eat plenty of beans and legumes. These foods are rich in fibre ( that binds excess oestrogen and eliminates it from the body), phytochemicals and a host of vitamins/minerals that may help keep sugar levels under control.
- Choose organic foods.
They have fewer additives and chemicals and hence are less of a burden on the liver, allowing it to focus on the processing of excess hormones for safe elimination.
- Consume phytoestrogens.
these are foods occurring substances in foods that have been shown to have a balancing effect on female hormones. Oestrogens are found in almost all fruits, vegetables and cereals, but they are most beneficial in the form of compounds called isoflavounes that are found in soya, lentils and chickpeas.

- Eat high fibre diet.
Fibre plays a major role in balancing female hormones. The fibre in fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains reduce oestrogen levels. Studies shows that who eat a high fibre, vegetarian diet are able to excrete old oestrogen three times more comapred to women who eat meat.

Hey there; nice subject line. Quick addition: Sex & exercise is always good for hormonal balance. Or, perhaps, you can 'coin' the term 'sexercise' and we'll call it an all-out, all-natural remedy! Thank you for providing such a fun "hub title" to enjoy...
those are great information.
A woman's life and health are regulated, to a great extent by progesterone. Produced primarily by the ovaries in women and the testes in men, progesterone is an essential in the production of most of the other important hormones, including estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, testosterone and cortisol. Small amounts are also produced by the adrenal glands and in the brain.
does this mean that if I follow this diet , it could modify my body structure ?(stocking more fat in the lower body,having less broad shoulders,less body hair,bigger breasts and all , maybe a behaviour change?more emotional?)over the years , I'm only 19.

This is really great too. I didn't know the foods I eat can effect how painful a cycle can be. This is very interesting.
I haven't been eating the great lately because I have been bouncing around between a big move coming up in a couple of weeks. But in the last few months I have noticed that they are becoming more painful. It probably is my diet. Good to know.
Ps. You should sneak a link into the water section of this hub, it's an excellent spot.
Thanks for all your tips.
