Women have very specific health concerns; unlike men, we are hormonally more complex. We have to learn how to maintain our health while under the influence of the gently shifting sands of fluctuating hormones.

In some respects, hormones are our best friends: they keep us informed of how our body is coping with our diet, lifestyle and environment, by acting as an early warning system when things aren’t going well.
