Hormone Detox
Your body’s hormones are not just estrogen and progesterone, but also insulin and thyroid and adrenal hormones. Exogenous (meaning outside of the body), either oral contraceptives, menopause creams or inappropriately prescribed thyroid medications. When a person uses exogenous hormones, that person is flooding her body with an unnatural amount of hormones. The receptor sites for that hormone on the cells become less active in an attempt at self-protection. Hormone production also depends upon are finely tuned communication between the brain (the hypothalamus and pituitary glands) and the hormone glands, based on feedback the brain gets on hormone activity in the body. If the brain senses there is not enough of a particular hormone in the bloodstream, it tells the glands to make more. If it senses there is too much, a message goes out to slow production. When a person floods her system with hormone creams or pills, the brain gets the message no hormones are needed and the ‘feedback loop’ between the brain and the glands slow down.
Hormone creams cause an excess amount of the hormone to accumulate in the body fat, with a build-up of any hormone, the liver is put under tremendous stress to break down those hormones so they can exit the body. If the liver cannot properly break down the hormones for elimination, those hormones can go back into the bloodstream in an even more toxic form. Therefore, a hormone detox needs with a support of liver, gallbladder and digestive system.
你體內的荷爾蒙不僅僅是雌激素和黃體酮,還有胰島素,甲狀腺和腎上腺激素。外源性(意指體外),口服避孕藥,更年期乳膏或不適當處方的甲狀腺藥物。當一個人使用外源荷爾蒙時,用不天然的荷爾蒙注入身體。身體上的接收器變得不那麼活躍。根據大腦對體內荷爾蒙活動的反饋,荷爾蒙的產生還取決於大腦(下丘腦和腦下垂體)與荷爾蒙腺之間的良好調節。如果大腦感覺到血液中沒有足夠的特定荷爾蒙,它會告訴腺體產生更多。如果它感覺到太多,則會發出消息以減緩生產。當一個人用荷爾蒙藥膏或藥丸淹沒她的系統時,大腦得到消息,不需要荷爾蒙生,大腦和腺體之間的“反饋迴路”減慢。
荷爾蒙霜導致過量的荷爾蒙積聚在體內脂肪中,隨著任何荷爾蒙的積聚,肝臟受到巨大的壓力,以分解這些荷爾蒙,使它們能夠離開身體。如果肝臟無法正常分解荷爾蒙,那麼這些荷爾蒙就會以更毒的形式返回血液。因此,需要肝臟,膽囊和消化系統的支持荷爾蒙排毒。
