It finally looks like we’re coming to the end of the greatest pandemic since influenza but for lots of women covid isn’t going anywhere yet endocrinologists and gynecologists are increasingly faced with five specific female symptoms these signs have something in common a past covered infection if you’re affected by any of the upcoming signs please share your
Experiences in the comments section after the video and if you like how we put our information across click on the thumbs up coming up we’ll show you how to claim a female friendly free gift created for health conscious women like you but now let’s focus on covert related hormonal signs one’s medical specialists are encountering across our wonderful world or at
Least let’s try to focus sign number five loss of focus do you feel scattered put things down and forget where you left them it’s easy to put lots of focus down to stress age and the time of the month but if you’ve dealt with a covert infection it’s worth focusing on we all lose focus sometimes so many things distract us busy lifestyles mobile devices multitasking
Responsibilities does covid make a difference coronavirus enters cells via a specific protein that protein is a receptor most of our cell membranes have that receptor is a covered virus door only when covid is inside a cell can it multiply the receptor connects to an enzyme called angiotensin converting enzyme 2 or ace2 most types of cells use it some more than
Others lung cells use lots of ace too so it’s no coincidence that covert attacks the airways did you know women are less likely to develop severe covered symptoms than men we can thank estrogen for that estrogen slows down cell responses to ace2 so covert infection develops at a slower rate female immune cells have more time to work than male immune cells male
Hormones speed up ace2 responses what’s this got to do with lack of focus the primary form of oestrogen estradiol helps concentration and memory if our brains don’t get enough estradiol we lose focus when estradiol is busy with a covert attack less is available for the rest of the body of course many factors cause focus problems the more of our signs you have
The more you can suspect covered induced hormonal imbalance sign 4 is all about thyroid hormone sign for heart palpitations parts of the body most affected by covid are parts that use the most ace2 their cells have more ace2 receptors parts like the lungs and the thyroid gland your thyroid gland produces metabolism regulating thyroid hormones the more energy
Your body needs the more thyroid hormones you make your metabolism speeds up hospitals in italy measured how many covered patients developed thyroid disorders the result 30 percent the thyroid gland contains more ace2 using cells than the lungs so it’s a prime target usually covert makes this gland work harder we call this hyperthyroidism the link is so strong
Doctors call the disorder covid related thyroiditis heart palpitations are a very distinct sign of hyperthyroidism a fast metabolism means cells need more energy the heart works extra hard to send them more oxygen and nutrients you can hear your heart beating and feel it race in your throat but those aren’t palpitations twenty percent of those italian patients
With covert related thyroiditis developed another hyperthyroid symptom atrial fibrillation atrial fibrillation is a quivering irregular heartbeat or heart palpitations we also experience palpitations when anxious or afraid but mood swings and anxiety are also symptoms of hyperthyroidism so check all these signs because hormones are very interdependent when one’s
Upset others follow suit sign three irregular menstrual cycle women are more susceptible to long-covered a recent study reported that nearly 83 percent of long-covered sufferers are female these women are not always menopausal the average age of women in this study was 46 and a half interestingly over 60 percent noticed their long-covered symptoms got worse in
The days before their period that’s when our sex hormones are at their lowest levels doctors know covert infections often disrupt the menstrual cycle even long after recovery we’ve also seen how covert dilutes the effect of estrogen in other organs but does covert do the same to progesterone the truth is we’re not sure scientists do know we need progesterone to
Make estrogen progesterone doesn’t slow ace to absorption progesterone does block male hormones and new studies show progesterone stops the covered virus multiplying inside the cell when progesterone makes estrogen fights inflammation and stops covid multiplication there’s less to guide our menstrual cycle which is worrying perhaps worrying enough to push up your
Blood pressure or is that a sign of covered hormone interference too sign two increased blood pressure the answer is yes hypertension is also a covered side effect we develop high blood pressure for all kinds of reasons but if you’re recovering from covid that virus might be the culprit the obelix study is trying to understand why the cardiovascular system is so
Badly affected by covid19 doctors observed covered patients with normal blood pressure at hospital admission these patients experienced a nine point blood pressure increase even at 12 weeks after recovery in the united states female covert patients have the highest blood pressure readings visit your doctor if you experience hypertension and the next sign after

Ways and they definitely alleviate our final sign sign one increased blood sugar a study in sweden tested morning and evening cortisol levels in over 1 600 people women produced the highest levels across the board this might explain why the american psychological association says women suffer from chronic stress more than men cortisol is the stress hormone any
Covert infection is a very stressful situation cortisol has many functions but most important are regulation of stress metabolism immunity and glucose it’s this last function that drives sugar levels up cortisol stimulates the liver to make sugar because when the body is under stress it uses more energy diabetes uk states that virus induced inflammation is a cause
Of insulin resistance our cells need insulin to absorb sugar the more insulin resistant we are the less sugar our cells absorb and the more sugar remains in our blood that’s the definition of type 2 diabetes covid also attacks the pancreas where ace2 hungry beta cells make insulin not being able to make enough insulin or insulin resistance makes blood sugar rise
But there’s good news long covered doesn’t last forever our hormones just need time to get back into balance you can help them recover through positive lifestyle changes we hope you’ve learned a little more about covid and your hormones ring the notification bell to stay in touch and please share your personal covert signs with other viewers have a healthy energizing balanced day you
