Women’s Health: The “ Why am I like this?” survival guide:

Let me say this upfront:

Let me say this upfront:

Why am I like this? A women’s health survival guide for every mood, craving, and midnight overthinking moment.

This women’s health survival guide is for anyone who has ever Googled “ Why am I crying over nothing?” While holding snacks at 2Am….

In the middle of night you imagine a funeral of your own and crying even though you are alive, so congratulations, you are not dramatic, you are human.

Women’s Health Survival Guide: Your Body Is Not Moody

The hormonal symphony:” I am fine… wait I am not”

One week I am like “I will fix my life, start gym, drink green tea and become a CEO.”

And next week : “ Don’t talk to me, don’t look at me, I might cry over a biscuit.”

This chaos is backed by research in Endocrinology that shows these shifts affect mood, energy, sleep, and even decision making. Do you know every month our body runs a carefully timed cycle involving estrogen, progesterone, and other hormones and these hormones rise and fall like they are on a rollercoaster and I am just the passenger screaming.

So the lesson I learned from it is instead of fighting it, I started tracking it using clues. Now when I feel off, I don’t panic, I just go “Ohhh, It is that week.”

Women’s Health Survival Guide: The Hormonal Symphony

I once ate a full meal, and then immediately opened the fridge like it personally offended me. Science says cravings aren’t random, they tell you a different story. Apparently science says chocolate maybe means magnesium needs, salty snacks may be mineral imbalance and constant hunger means that our body needs energy and not judgement.

In such situations now I have stopped overreacting, I stopped saying “ I have no self control” and started asking “ What does my body actually need?”

• Chocolate cravings → magnesium needs
• Salty snacks → mineral imbalance
• Constant hunger → body needs energy

So whenever you crave it just get it dude and enjoy it with confidence.

“Gym Queen vs Couch potato” Same person, different day:

Does it happen with you people that somedays I walk in the field like an athlete and other day I am there thinking should I leave this bed or not. I think it happens with a lot of us.

So the reason behind the whole laziness is biology, therefore one day I walk into a workout like I am in a motivational video and the other day lifting my water bottle feels like a full body workout. The research in Exercise Physiology says energy levels change across your cycle.

My new rule works for me:

• Whenever I am energetic → workouts, strength training
• When I feel tired → gentle walk, stretching with zero guilt

“Just one more scroll “Famous last words:

“My toxic relationship”

I decided to sleep early at night. “ I will sleep early today” also scrolling random videos at 2 o clock like it’s my job and my life depends on it. It’s like If accidentally I miss one of the reels then from somewhere something is gonna hit me and I won’t be able to wake up in the morning.

But in reality in the morning I wake up feeling like a zombie with an attitude full of headache, eyes swollen and terrifying dark circles all over my eyes terrifying everyone in home like a vampire awakening after a million years to find his lost lover. Biology says sleep affects hormones, mood, and literally everything.

Now I am trying a trick and I will share with you is that now I put my phone away earlier, I become successful, sometimes not. I pretend like I am a responsible adult. I romanticize sleep like it’s self care and it actually is.

“I am overthinking everything “ The brain drama:

Have you ever replayed one conversation 47 times and created 12 imaginary arguments?

Science from psychoneuroimmunology shows stress isn’t just “ mental” it messes with your body too. So whenever it happens with me I start talking to someone or myself. Sometimes I write down things instead of letting them live rent free in my head.

“Is this normal” The question we all ask:

I used to think that extreme cramps are normal and feeling exhausted all the time is also normal. But sometimes it is not.

The conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome or endometriosis are real and often ignored.

So if your body is screaming don’t mute it. Go get it checked and you deserve answers , not guesses.

Final thought: We are not complicated and just advanced technology:

Honestly, we are not too much , we are just running a high level biological system with zero user manual. Some days we thrive, some days we survive, both count.
