Sea Moss Helps Regulate Sexual Hormones in Women

Hormonal imbalance is one of the leading causes of reproductive problems in women. Mood swings, heavy periods, infertility, PCOS, etc., results from an imbalance in female sex hormones. Women try various remedies to get rid of these issues. One such remedy that has been under the spotlight in recent times is sea moss.

Sea moss is a miracle marine plant with tremendous health benefits. It affects reproductive health in numerous ways but benefits women more than men.

Let's discuss how sea moss affects women's reproductive health and helps regulate female sex hormones. But before we jump to the hormone regulating effects of sea moss, we must understand what it is.

What is Sea Moss?

Sea moss, a.k.a Irish moss, is a type of red alga that grows along the coasts of the North Atlantic and Caribbean islands. Despite its name, sea moss is seaweed and not moss. Sea moss comes in various colors like purple, brown, green, etc. You may sprinkle it into your dishes or apply it on the skin – sea moss serves multiple purposes.

Sea moss contains a plethora of vitamins and minerals. People usually call it nature’s multivitamin that affectshealth in the best possible way. It has 92 of the 102 minerals required by the body. It is a pack of nutrients that boosts immunity, metabolism and helps regulate hormones.

Sea Moss and Women Sexual Hormones

Women see fluctuations in their hormones throughout their life. From puberty to menopause, the levels of estrogens and progesterone keep on changing in the body. Sea moss contains nutrients thathelpregulate women's sex hormones. 

Let’s dig into these nutrients in sea moss and study how theyaffect female sex hormones.

  • Zinc in Sea Moss

Estrogen fluctuations cause premenstrual syndrome and mood swings in women. In addition, low libido and fertility issues arise due to changes in sex hormones. The high content of zinc in sea moss may address these problems. Sea moss contains a good percentage of zinc that affects the metabolism of androgen hormones, estrogen, and progesterone.

  • The Fiber in Sea Moss

Hormonal imbalances can lead to infertility. Your nutrient-deficient diet is often the culprit for this imbalance. Sea moss contains essential nutrients that can help you get pregnant. In addition, fiber in the sea moss helps maintain the body's blood sugar level. Maintenance of a stable blood glucose level is vital for anyone suffering from hormonal imbalances. 

The fiber in sea moss also plays a role in lowering estrogen concentrations in the body. Excess estrogen causes several problems, such as endometriosis, PCOS, ovarian cysts, that affect fertility. Therefore, consuming fiber-rich sea moss helps to regulate estrogen levels, thereby helping infertility. 

  • Iodine and Selenium

The thyroid gland helps to maintain the hormones in the body. Advanced age decreases the functioning of the thyroid gland, causing mood disturbances, menstrual problems, and a couple of other reproductive issues. Sea moss helps to regulate the functioning of the thyroid gland. Its high level of iodine and selenium play a significant role in stabilizing the female hormones. Iodine improves conception rates in couples with unexplained infertility. 

End Note

Sea moss does not have any direct effect on women's sex hormones. There are currently no studies that indicate that it increases or decreases any female hormone. Instead, it works by providing the essential minerals that help regulate the sexual hormones in the body. Check out the Herbal Vineyard store to get quality sea moss products at affordable prices.
