“What no one tells you about being a woman”
What does being a woman mean?
It means having a strong sense of identity. It means accepting your body as one that adapts and changes over time. It means being confident and building up the people in your life. It means you have the wisdom to be grateful for what you have while still being hungry enough for growth. Being female today should mean freedom, equality, and safety. A hundred years ago, women were expected to be wives and mothers, tasked with raising good, moral citizens and keeping comfortable homes.
Except for teachers, nurses, seamstresses, maids and others who performed jobs considered to be appropriately feminine, women didn’t have careers. Being a woman isn’t about genitals, femininity, or fitting into one specific mould. Each of you have your own experience that’s uniquely yours.
This is not about that awesome aspect; this is about being a woman from a physical sense. Can you remember wondering as a teen when your period was going to start? Do you remember thinking something’s wrong with you? When WILL you become a woman? Did your mom sit you down and explain how your body works and what to expect? Or maybe you just touched on the subject in Natural Science class? If you’re like most, it’s a bit of both and you may have reached your stage in life accepting the rhythm of your monthly cycle and managing symptoms like irregular, painful and heavy periods with the help of prescribed or over the counter medication. Sound familiar? Let’s skip the details of external femininity, since it’s the internal mechanism you’re focussing on. Let’s jump right into getting to know more about hormones and the importance of balance.
Hormones are chemical messengers that coordinate different functions in your body by carrying messages through your blood to your organs, skin, muscles, and other tissues. These messengers tell your body what to do and when to do it. They’re essential for life and your health and over 50 of them are working hard to control different bodily processes including:
Metabolism (the process of converting food and drink into energy) | Homeostasis (constant internal balance) such as blood pressure and blood sugar regulation, fluid (water) and electrolyte balance, and body temperature | Growth and development | Reproduction | Sleep-wake cycle | Mood.

This seems boring and irrelevant right now but bear with me…Your body produces hormones constantly and uses them for 2 types of communication. Firstly, between two glands. For example, your pituitary gland releases thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). This triggers your thyroid to release its hormones. This then affects various aspects of your body. Secondly, it’s communication between the gland and the target tissue. For example, your pancreas releases insulin. This acts on your muscles and liver to help process glucose. Think of hormones as keys. And cells of the target tissues as specially shaped locks. If the hormone fits the lock it’ll work. Your hormones deliver messages that cause the target site to take a specific action.
To function at healthy levels, it makes sense that ALL your organs and tissues continue to send and receive messages for optimum health. In another word, homeostasis is a state of constant internal balance. Are you still with me? Great… So how does this tie into becoming a woman and what is it that no one tells you? Quite simple! You shouldn’t suffer symptoms of hormone imbalance. You shouldn’t suffer irregular, painful, heavy periods. You shouldn’t bleed for days or weeks on end. You shouldn’t go through the mood swings. Anxiety, weight gain, and headaches/migraines may all be a result of hormone imbalance. Each monthly cycle should come and go with ease right up until your eggs are finished and pregnancy is no longer possible. Then the conversation turns to menopause and what happens when your ovaries stop producing estrogen and progesterone.
Why is it important you know this?
Dealing with cramps every month can be as frustrating as it is painful. There are many remedies that might help you relieve period cramps. It’s important to remember that these techniques won’t always work, especially for chronic conditions, but they can offer relief for mild to moderate period pain. Yes, Youfemism is a massive way to relieve your pain and balance your hormones!
Natural Balance
Youfemism is a unique blend of natural herbs and essential oils ALL proven effective in alleviating symptoms related to your periods. It’s last on a list of healthier choices since a healthier lifestyle and eating habits support your body’s hormonal balance naturally.
Choose natural skin products
Natural skincare products are better for the environment than synthetic skincare products. The reasons for this are numerous. First and foremost, synthetic chemicals have the potential to harm animals and plants with which they come into contact.
Avoid or quit smoking
Nicotine and some other components of cigarette smoke cause various endocrine imbalances and have negative effects on pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, testicular, and ovarian functions. This also has an effect on your skin.
Skip the treats!
While a brownie or french fries might sound delicious, foods high in sugar, trans fat and salt can cause bloating and inflammation, which makes muscle pain and cramps worse. Grab a banana or another piece of fruit to fight sugar cravings or go for unsalted nuts if you want something more savoury.
Reach for Decaf
Caffeine causes your blood vessels to narrow. This can constrict your uterus, making cramps more painful. If you need your coffee fix, switch to decaf during your period. If you rely on caffeine to beat the afternoon slump, eat a snack high in protein or take a quick 10-minute walk to boost your energy.
Limit alcohol consumption
Alcohol can change the way a woman’s body metabolizes estrogen (how estrogen works in the body). This can cause blood estrogen levels to rise. Estrogen levels are higher in women who drink alcohol than in non-drinkers. Higher estrogen levels are in turn, linked to an increased risk of breast cancer.
Drink more water
Bloating can cause discomfort and make menstrual cramps worse. Water can reduce bloating during your period and alleviate some of the pain. Drinking hot water can increase blood flow throughout your body and relax your muscles. This will also keep you hydrated for better-looking skin.
Exercise
If you’re in pain, exercise might be the last thing on your mind. But even gentle exercise releases endorphins that make you feel happy, reduce pain and relax your muscles. Fifteen minutes of yoga, light stretching, or walking might be all you need to feel better. This will also leave you ready and energized!
Eat as healthy as possible
Did you know, that Anti-inflammatory foods can help promote blood flow and relax your uterus and also relieve pain? Try eating berries, tomatoes, pineapples, and spices like turmeric, ginger, or garlic. Leafy green vegetables, almonds, walnuts, and fatty fish, like salmon, can also help reduce inflammation.
