A Complete Guide to Rebalancing Your Hormones
Dec 08, 2025
For years, I struggled with symptoms that no one could explain. I was cold all the time, constantly bloated, exhausted, constipated, and holding on to weight no matter how clean I ate or how hard I worked out.
Every doctor I saw told me I was “normal.” My labs looked “fine.” But deep down, I knew something wasn't right.
What I didn't realize then was that my hormones were completely out of balance — my cortisol was through the roof, my thyroid was sluggish, and my body was stuck in survival mode.
Once I began to understand how each hormone communicates with the next — and how lifestyle, stress, and nutrition influence them — everything changed. I finally began to feel like myself again.
And that's why I created Raeya — to help other women do the same.
If you've ever felt “off” — tired but wired, moody, bloated, or not quite yourself — your hormones might be trying to tell you something.
Hormones are your body's messengers — they orchestrate everything from energy and metabolism to mood, sleep, and even motivation. When they're in sync, you feel balanced, calm, and clear. But when one system goes out of rhythm, the rest follow.
At Raeya, we believe that understanding your hormones is the first step to healing. So here's a quick guide to help you identify what may be out of balance — and how to begin re-aligning your body and energy.
Thyroid: The Metabolism Regulator
Your thyroid controls how your body uses energy — every cell depends on it.
When out of balance, you might feel:
- Low energy or brain fog
- Weight gain (even when eating well)
- Hair thinning or dry skin
- Constipation or bloating
- Feeling cold all the time
Quick tips to support your thyroid:
- Eat enough — undereating slows thyroid output.
- Focus on minerals like iodine, selenium, and zinc (found in eggs, seafood, and pumpkin seeds).
- Prioritize sleep — even mild sleep deprivation impacts thyroid hormone conversion.
Cortisol: The Stress Hormone
Cortisol keeps you alert and helps you respond to stress — but when it's constantly elevated, your body starts to burn out.
When out of balance, you might feel:
- Wired but exhausted
- Afternoon crashes
- Anxiety or irritability
- Salt or sugar cravings
- Poor sleep or waking up at 3 a.m.
Quick tips to calm your cortisol:
- Start your morning slowly — light before caffeine, movement before screens.
- Balance your blood sugar with protein + fiber at every meal.
- Try daily nervous system resets like breathwork, meditation, or gentle walks.
Estrogen & Progesterone: The Feminine Rhythm
These two work in harmony — estrogen gives energy and confidence; progesterone brings calm and balance. When they're imbalanced, you'll feel it.
When out of balance, you might feel:
- PMS, bloating, breast tenderness
- Heavy or irregular periods
- Anxiety or mood swings
- Low libido or sleep trouble
Quick tips to rebalance your cycle:
- Support your liver with cruciferous veggies (broccoli, kale, cauliflower) to clear excess estrogen.
- Manage stress — cortisol steals progesterone.
- Cycle-sync your workouts: high-intensity when you're ovulating, restorative when you're bleeding.
Insulin: The Blood Sugar Balancer
Insulin manages how your body processes glucose for energy. When it's dysregulated, it affects weight, mood, and inflammation.
When out of balance, you might feel:
- Cravings for carbs or sweets
- Midday crashes or shakiness when hungry
- Weight gain around the midsection
- Acne or irregular periods
Quick tips to stabilize insulin:
- Eat within an hour of waking — start with protein.
- Avoid grazing; eat balanced meals every 4–5 hours.
- Walk after meals to help move glucose into your muscles.
