When bacterial imbalance is present in the gut, we often see metabolic issues (brain fog, hair loss, stubborn weight) and/or inflammation (joint pain, muscle aches, bursitis) at the same time as either: • constipation • IBS (alternating constipation/diarrhoea) • heartburn/reflux • bloating • food intolerances Oestrogen spent decades handling protective roles: Suppressing inflammatory cytokines Balancing oxidative stress as an antioxidant Improving insulin sensitivity Supporting gut motility When oestrogen drops, those protective mechanisms significantly decrease. Many women feel like they just wake up with pain that just doesn’t seem to go away. If the gut microbiome has been affected and oestrogen has gone down, these “gut” symptoms get bigger. Things like bloating, food sensitivities, hay fever or allergies, getting sick easily. The body goes into “Fix It Mode”, creating more “Protective Fat Tissue” to get more oestrogen. It’s a reaction to the gut inflammation and the amount of inflammation in the body. If bacterial imbalance or gut permeability (leaky gut) isn’t addressed, the cycle continues. Women often put on more weight around the middle, become more foggy, and feel concerned about what they are eating. Pain often persists. Women start going out to get medication, supplements, creams, whatever it takes to manage symptoms. After 50, it’s often harder to resolve. This is a big reason why we’ve updated and revised our book, “Bacteria Inflammation & Peri-, Post-, Menopause”. It’s an easy-to-follow read. We’ve even laid out patient case studies with test examples to help simplify how to look at things like annual pathology to understand if there is something going on with bacteria or gut dysfunction.
