Hormone imbalance doesn’t always show up like a medical emergency.
It often begins as a whisper
a little more fatigue,
a little less joy,
a sense that something inside you is… off.
At Birdsong Medical Centre, we believe those whispers matter.
And we’re here to help you decode them.
Here are five subtle, commonly overlooked signs of hormone imbalance and why they deserve your attention.
Mood Shifts You Can’t Explain
You’re not depressed. But you're not yourself, either.
You might feel more irritable, anxious, or easily overwhelmed especially before your period. These can be signs of low progesterone, estrogen dominance, or cortisol dysregulation.
Sleep Disruption (Especially Around Your Cycle)
Falling asleep is harder. Or you wake up at 3 AM with a racing heart.
This is often connected to progesterone dips, cortisol spikes, or blood sugar instability all deeply influenced by hormone health.
Your cycle and your circadian rhythm are deeply intertwined.
Brain Fog & Trouble Focusing
Forgetting words mid-sentence? Struggling to finish tasks?
This can result from low estrogen, thyroid imbalance, or poor hormone clearance due to sluggish detox pathways.
Changes in Bleeding Patterns
Heavier periods. Spotting. Skipped cycles.
Even if it seems “normal” for you, a shift in bleeding is a key sign of disrupted estrogen/progesterone balance, perimenopause, or thyroid dysfunction.
Skin Changes & New Acne Flares
Adult hormonal acne — especially on the jawline, chin, or neck can point to elevated androgens, insulin resistance, or estrogen imbalance.
Your skin is often the first place internal shifts show up.
