Women's Hormones
Sarah has worked at The Healthy Hormone Naturopath, a leading women’s hormone clinic in Brisbane for over a year, supporting many women through fertility, postpartum, perimenopause, menopause, and complex hormonal concerns.
This experience means you are supported with both clinical expertise and a genuinely compassionate, whole person approach.
Women’s Health and Hormones
Hormones influence so much more than your cycle. They affect your mood, energy, sleep, appetite, digestion, skin, focus, stress tolerance, and how resilient you feel day to day.
When hormones are shifting, especially in postpartum, perimenopause, or high stress seasons, it can feel like your body is doing its own weird little experiment without your consent.
We support women with a holistic, neuroaffirming approach that helps you understand what is happening in your body, then gently build the foundations that support hormone balance long term.
How Naturopathy Can Support Hormones
Hormones respond best to consistency, foundation work, and nervous system safety. Our approach is practical, personalised, and realistic for busy women. Support may include:
Nervous system regulation and stress support
Stress hormones affect progesterone, sleep quality, blood sugar, and mood. We focus on calming the stress response and building resilience in a way that suits your lifestyle and sensory needs.
Blood sugar and energy stability
Blood sugar swings can worsen PMS, fatigue, cravings, irritability, anxiety, and hormone symptoms. We work on steady meals, protein balance, and gentle routine building.
Gut health and hormone clearance
Your gut plays a major role in hormone metabolism. If digestion is sluggish, inflamed, or imbalanced, hormones can be harder to regulate. We support bloating, reflux, constipation, and gut function so your body can process hormones more efficiently.
Nutrient repletion and foundation support
Hormonal symptoms are often worse when your body is depleted. We may focus on replenishing key nutrients through food first, with targeted support where needed.
Cycle support and symptom mapping
Understanding your cycle and symptoms helps us identify patterns such as low progesterone symptoms, oestrogen dominance, PCOS patterns, or perimenopausal changes.
A plan that fits real life
You do not need to do everything perfectly. You need a plan that works with your energy, capacity, and current season of life.
Common Signs Your Hormones Need Support
Hormone imbalance can look different for every woman, but some common symptoms include:
-
PMS that affects your mood, patience, or relationships
-
Heavy, painful, or irregular periods
-
Low energy and afternoon crashes
-
Sleep disruption, especially waking overnight
-
Anxiety, irritability, or feeling emotionally fragile
-
Brain fog, poor focus, or feeling “not like yourself”
-
Acne, hair changes, or increased facial hair
-
Sugar cravings or feeling shaky between meals
-
Bloating, constipation, reflux, or digestive discomfort
-
Weight changes that feel hard to shift
You do not need to have all of these symptoms for hormones to be a major piece of the puzzle.
Your first consultation is about understanding the full picture, not just one symptom. We explore:
-
Your cycle history and current symptoms
-
Mood, energy, and sleep patterns
-
Stress load and nervous system capacity
-
Gut health and nutrition patterns
-
Relevant testing or medical history
-
Your goals and what feels realistic right now
From there, you will receive a clear plan with practical next steps.
Appointments are available Australia wide via online consultations.
