Eating Disorders & Hormones

HOW DO EATING DISORDERS HAVE AN EFFECT OUR HORMONES?
How you eat and how much you weigh has an important is important for your hormones.

If you develop an unhealthy eating pattern, it can have a huge impact on the hormones that regulate many systems in the body, putting a strain on functions that are designed to preserve energy and for the protection of essential organs – such as metabolism, fertility, and response to stress.

HOW DO I UNDERSTAND IF I HAVE AN EATING DISORDER?
People suffering from anorexia nervosa are very underweight as an outcome of extreme dieting or too much exercise. In bulimia nervosa, people have a normal weight but experience cycles of uncontrollable overeating after which they become sick after meals or make improper use of laxatives to make up for the food that is consumed.

People with a binge-eating disorder experience many episodes of uncontrollable binge eating but do not try to compensate for binges through vomiting, fasting, or over-exercising. People with binge-eating disorder often become victim of obesity.

Over or Underactive Thyroid Conditions

The thyroid is a gland that is responsible for making a hormone which controls the metabolic rate, which is the rate at which our bodies burn energy. Thyroid hormones help our body use energy, stay warm and keep the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs functioning appropriately. Improper working of thyroid can lead to the development of a thyroid condition.

OVER ACTIVITY - HYPERTHYROIDISM
Hyperthyroidism is when your body makes too much thyroid hormone. There are many causes of hyperthyroidism.An over-active thyroid causes weight loss, feeling hot, tremors, and feeling of anxiety.

UNDER ACTIVITY - HYPOTHYROIDISM
Hypothyroidism is when the thyroid gland can’t make sufficient thyroid hormone to keep your body functioning normally, leading to too little thyroid hormone in your blood.An under-active thyroid causes weight gain, feeling cold, and feelings of depression.

In both cases one may feel exhausted – we manage and treat both disorders effectively.
