Modern life demands women to balance multiple roles, including demanding careers and family responsibilities, which can significantly impact their well-being due to the stresses of urban living. Despite not being a widely accepted medical diagnosis in traditional medicine, adrenal fatigue’s genuine symptoms reflect how long-term stress affects the body’s delicate hormonal balance.

The FENS Prana Sakhi program of Prameya Heath is deeply committed to empowering women of all ages by specializing in preventive health. One area where this dedication becomes critical is in understanding and addressing adrenal fatigue a term that resonates deeply with many women experiencing persistent exhaustion.

Our adrenal glands are tiny and powerful organs. They are situated above our kidneys, producing important stress-reduction hormones like cortisol. Overwork of these glands might result in a series of unsettling symptoms when faced with prolonged periods of physical, emotional, or mental stress. For women, this can intensify by hormonal fluctuations throughout their life stages, from menstruation and pregnancy to perimenopause and menopause.

What does this energy imbalance look like?

At first, the symptoms of overloaded adrenal glands may be mild and mistaken for simple fatigue. However, their effects on daily life can worsen over time. Common symptoms include:

  • Persistent fatigue that isn’t relieved by sleep.
  • Trouble to waking up in the morning, even after a full night’s sleep.
  • Cravings for salty or sugary foods, often a desperate attempt by the body to find quick energy.
  • Increased reliance on caffeine or other stimulants to get through the day.
  • Poor memory and concentration, brain fog etc.
  • Increased anxiety or depression, irritation and mood changes
  • Due to weak immune system frequent colds or infections.
  • Hormonal imbalances, manifesting as irregular periods, intensified PMS, or worsened menopausal symptoms.
  • Dizziness or low BP when standing.
