| Abstract | ||||
Women's hormonal health is closely interlinked with gut physiology, microbiota composition, nutritional status, and life-stage-specific endocrine changes. Hormonal disorders such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), perimenopause, postmenopause-associated metabolic disturbances, and postpartum depression are highly prevalent among women of reproductive and post-reproductive age. Emerging evidence highlights the gut-hormone axis, wherein gut microbiota modulates estrogen metabolism, insulin sensitivity, cortisol regulation, and neurotransmitter synthesis.[1][2] |
