Why Your Hormonal Symptoms Are NOT Random — The 5 Hidden Root Causes Every Woman Must Know Before It’s Too Late
Dear Woman, Your Symptoms Are NOT “Normal”… And They’re Not Your Fault .
Dr Disha Sridhar
I am a Gynaecologist Obstetrician ( MD, DNB OBGYN) with an emphasis on INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE.
If you’ve been told:
- “Your labs are normal.”
- “It’s just stress.”
- “It’s in your head.”
- “This is normal for women.”
…please pause and take a deep breath.
Your body is NOT malfunctioning.
Your hormones are NOT betraying you.
And you are definitely NOT “being dramatic”.
You are simply missing the root cause behind what your body is trying to tell you.
Hormonal issues do NOT happen randomly — they follow a very predictable pattern.
In fact, over 92% of women I see at TruHealing have the same 5 hidden drivers underneath their PCOS, fertility struggles, acne, periods, weight gain, low energy, hair fall, or mood swings.
Once these are fixed, women transform — naturally, gently, permanently.
And THAT is exactly what this blog is going to show you.
Why This Is Important (Please Don’t Ignore This)
Because when women don’t understand their root causes, they end up:
- jumping from doctor to doctor
- taking pills that suppress symptoms
- following restrictive diets
- Googling endlessly
- feeling broken, confused, helpless
And worst…
They begin to believe “maybe this is just who I am now.”
No, my love.
Your body is designed to heal — when you understand it properly.
This blog will give you clarity, confidence, and power.
After reading this, you will know exactly what is going wrong inside your body — and exactly what steps you need to take to reclaim your health.

ROOT CAUSE #1 — Inflammation: The Silent Fire Behind Your Hormones
Inflammation in women, chronic inflammation PCOS
Inflammation is the #1 driver behind:
- irregular cycles
- bloating
- acne
- weight resistance
- painful periods
- low energy
Why?
Because inflammation disrupts every female hormone — estrogen, progesterone, insulin, thyroid hormones, cortisol.
But here’s the problem:
Normal blood tests NEVER show this.
Inflammation hides in your gut, liver, lymphatic system, and cells… quietly building chaos.
What happens if you ignore this?
Inflammation spreads.
Symptoms worsen.
PCOS turns severe.
Periods turn painful.
Fertility drops.
Weight becomes harder to lose.
What to do instead
Reduce inflammatory foods
Heal the gut
Support the liver
Lower cortisol
Balance blood sugar
(This is exactly what we do in the first month of TruHealing.)
ROOT CAUSE #2 — Insulin Resistance: The Hormone That Controls All Other Hormones
Insulin resistance women, PCOS insulin, cravings, weight gain
Insulin is not just a “sugar” hormone.
It is a master hormone that controls:
- ovulation
- acne
- cravings
- fat storage
- mood
- fertility
70–80% of women with PCOS have undiagnosed insulin resistance even when blood sugar appears normal.
Signs you have insulin issues:
- stubborn belly fat
- cravings
- energy crashes
- hangry mood
- dark patches (neck/underarms)
- cystic acne
- irregular periods
What happens if you ignore this?
PCOS becomes more severe.
Ovulation becomes irregular.
Fertility drops.
Skin worsens.
Weight loss becomes impossible.
What we do at TruHealing
We use metabolic healing — nutrition, stress support, circadian alignment, herbs, and lifestyle medicine.
No starving.
No extremes.
No fear.
ROOT CAUSE #3 — Hormonal Detox Blockage (Liver Overload)
Estrogen dominance, liver detox hormones, heavy periods, PMS
Your liver is responsible for clearing:
- excess estrogen
- toxins
- plastics
- medication residues
- stress hormones
- inflammatory molecules
But most modern Indian women have an overworked, under-supported liver.
Signs your detox pathways are blocked:
- PMS
- painful periods
- fibroids
- endometriosis
- breast tenderness
- stubborn acne (chin/jawline)
- bloating
- water retention
- irritability
What happens if you ignore this?
Estrogen levels go haywire.
Your cycles become painful.
Your moods become unpredictable.
Your skin starts breaking out.
Your weight loss stops.
What we do at TruHealing
Gentle detox, not harsh detox.
Food + herbs + gut healing + lymphatic clearing.
Safe biological detox.
ROOT CAUSE #4 — Thyroid/Adrenal Imbalance (Stress + Hormones)
Cortisol, adrenal fatigue, thyroid women, burnout
Women today are living in a constant fight-or-flight mode.
Cortisol rises.
Progesterone drops.
Thyroid slows down.
Your body becomes a hormone warzone.
Signs your stress hormones are imbalanced:
- cravings
- irritability
- poor sleep
- hair fall
- anxiety
- stubborn weight
- low libido
- fatigue
- fertility struggles
What happens if ignored?
Adrenal burnout.
Thyroid weakness.
Hormone crashes.
Emotional overwhelm.
Miscarriage risks.
PCOS worsening.
At TruHealing we do this:
- nervous system reset
- somatic work
- breathing protocols
- feminine energy balancing
- adrenal support nutrition
- sleep rhythm optimization
This changes EVERYTHING.
ROOT CAUSE #5 — Emotional / Trauma Imprints Stored in the Womb
Emotional healing women, feminine energy, womb trauma
This is the most ignored root cause — yet the MOST powerful.
Your womb stores:
- grief
- heartbreak
- rejection
- disappointment
- fear
- childhood pain
- birth trauma
- emotional suppression
If emotions are stuck → hormones cannot regulate.
Signs of emotional root cause:
- anxiety
- guilt
- comparison
- fear of failure
- relationship stress
- burnout
- lack of self-worth
- overthinking
- difficulty conceiving
If ignored:
Healing will always feel incomplete.
Symptoms will return after temporary improvement.
Cycles will stay unstable.
Your feminine energy stays blocked.
What we do at TruHealing
- subconscious work
- emotional release
- trauma-informed healing
- self-worth rebuilding
- feminine energy anchoring
This is what creates radiant, permanent transformation.
How All 5 Root Causes Interconnect (Your “Aha Moment”)
When inflammation rises → insulin rises
When insulin rises → ovaries stop ovulating
When ovulation stops → estrogen dominance happens
When estrogen rises → liver overload happens
When liver overloads → acne, mood issues, heavy periods happen
When stress rises → thyroid drops
When thyroid drops → infertility increases
When emotions are stuck → healing collapses
Everything is connected.
Which is why isolated treatments FAIL.
