5 types of seeds that help relieve discomfort caused by female hormonal disorders

Phương Thảo (Theo HealthShots) |

The nutritional value of the seeds can help limit or control hormonal problems such as acne, irregular menstruation, amenorrhea (absence of menstruation)...

1. Almonds

Almonds are rich in magnesium, which helps reduce cramps and pain associated with hormonal disorders. Just eating a few roasted almonds will quickly help women eliminate discomfort.

Women can also gently massage the abdomen with almond oil to relieve pain and bloating.

2. Flaxseed

Flaxseeds are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. They are also rich in antioxidants called lignans. Lignans have been shown to inhibit the overproduction of estrogen. Therefore, eating 1 to 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds daily along with pumpkin seeds during the follicular phase will ensure that your body does not become overloaded with estrogen.

According to a study published in the American Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, flaxseeds can help prolong the luteal phase, improve ovulation and make it easier for you to conceive.

3. Sesame seeds

According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, sesame seeds are a rich source of zinc, which helps boost progesterone production. Sesame seeds also contain lignans, like flaxseeds, which help block excess estrogen so progesterone levels don’t spike. This is why it’s best to consume sesame seeds during the second half of your menstrual cycle, when progesterone levels naturally peak, to help with early pregnancy.

4. Sunflower seeds

Sunflower seeds are the fruit of the sunflower plant. Women should consume 1 to 2 tablespoons of freshly ground sunflower seeds along with sesame seeds during the follicular phase of their menstrual cycle. Sunflower seeds are rich in vitamin E, which helps increase progesterone levels and combat PMS symptoms. They also provide selenium, a micronutrient that aids in the liver’s detoxification of estrogen.

5. Chia seeds

Chia seeds are high in fiber and have a maximum amount of omega-3s. These qualities make chia seeds perfect for managing hormonal issues such as insulin sensitivity, metabolic syndrome, irregular periods, acne, and mood swings.
