Glands in Human Body - #18592
Lately, I’ve been dealing with a lot of unexplained fatigue, mood swings, and weight changes, and no matter what I do, it just doesn’t seem to get better. I’ve read that glands in the human body play a huge role in controlling different bodily functions, so I started wondering if my symptoms could be linked to some kind of glandular imbalance. I know that the endocrine system is responsible for producing hormones that regulate everything from metabolism to emotions, but I never realized how many glands in the human body are actually involved. From what I understand, there are major glands like the thyroid, pituitary, adrenal, and pancreas, and each one has a different function. I recently got some tests done, and while my doctor didn’t say anything was seriously wrong, my thyroid levels were on the lower side of normal. Could this be affecting my energy levels and metabolism? Another thing that concerns me is my mood swings. One moment, I feel fine, and the next, I feel extremely anxious or even depressed. I read that the adrenal glands release cortisol, which is related to stress. Could my adrenal glands be overworked, leading to adrenal fatigue? Are there Ayurvedic herbs that can help balance cortisol levels naturally? I also have digestive issues, especially bloating and sluggish digestion, and I heard that the pancreas plays a role in digestion by producing enzymes. If my pancreas isn’t functioning properly, could that be why I feel so uncomfortable after eating? Are there Ayurvedic treatments or diets that support pancreas health and improve digestion? One of my friends suggested that I should check my pituitary gland function because it controls other glands in the human body, like the thyroid and adrenal glands. If my pituitary gland isn’t working properly, could that be causing my hormonal imbalances, fatigue, and low energy? Also, I’ve noticed that my skin has become drier, and my hair is falling out more than usual. I read that hormonal imbalances due to gland dysfunction can lead to hair loss and skin problems. Are there any Ayurvedic oils, herbs, or treatments that can restore balance to the glands and promote healthy skin and hair? Since there are so many glands in the human body, I’m confused about where to start. Should I get more tests done to check specific hormone levels? Are there general Ayurvedic remedies that can support overall glandular health without needing to target just one gland? Doctor, what do you recommend for someone dealing with fatigue, hormonal changes, and digestive issues possibly linked to gland dysfunction? Are there Ayurvedic therapies, herbs, or lifestyle changes that can restore balance to the glands in the human body and improve overall well-being?
