A downloadable guide to record symptoms, and monitor changes in your symptoms after treatment

Hormone receptors are present on every cell in your body, so when levels of estradiol (the beneficial type of estrogen), progesterone and testosterone fluctuate or fall, this leads to many symptoms occurring as well as risks to future health.

Symptoms can occur during perimenopause and menopause, and with hormonal conditions such as premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), postnatal depression, endometriosis and polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS/PCOS).
