The Endocrine system for people, male and female, differ primarily in the organs and systems used for reproduction. Nutritional deficiencies, stresses, and inherited weaknesses can show up in a variety of ways. For the female, from pre-adolescence to post-menopause, the reproduction system needs a variety of nutritional support. It is greatly affected by proper nutrition with the Thyroid, Pituitary, and Adrenal organs and also with the function of the Liver in its production of hormones and dietary fats metabolism. The imbalance of certain hormones can greatly affect the monthly cycle and associated pre-menstrual syndromes as well as negatively affect the ability to have children or healthy sexual lifestyle. The relationship between the reproductive system and the rest of the endocrine system is specifically identified in the system survey and will enable us to make dietary, nutritional supplement, and lifestyle recommendations based on the indications listed in the group. Interestingly, many herbal extracts are very helpful in assisting the female body to deal with stresses in female reproductive system and we may suggest the use of these as well. Finally, female reproductive disorders can also increase a person’s susceptibility to various infections including urinary tract infections.
