Hormone imbalance and underweight???

[TyphoonTessie]

As I've mentioned in my previous post, I have the strong feeling that I have a hormone imbalance. For 3 years, I've been overemotional/irritable/nervous, have had light/skipped periods, persistent acne,(I'm 20 and I don't feel like this should be happening), and hot flashes. These problems have gotten progressively worse over the years. The problem is though, that I feel like I have the symptoms of both estrogen dominance and estrogen deficiency. I've read that people with estrogen dominance tend to be overweight, and I couldn't be any more underweight. I'm also not able to see a doctor or OB GYN because I'm not signed on to any healthcare yet. does anybody have an answer? I feel more emotional than I should and I can't stop crying.I feel like the same days are being repeated with the same problems and I just get more and more confused.

You know, I always had this feeling something was up with my metabolism. It's pretty difficult for me to gain weight. I'll try to see a doctor as soon as possible. Thanks. :)

If possible I think you should try to speak to a doctor to get a proper answer as they can only confirm any diagnosis by seeing you. I'd suggest that if your weight is lower than healthy then weight gain might stable out your emotions. However, I understand if this is not possible as weight gain can be hard for metabolic reasons etc. Again, I think seeing a doctor would be the best opinion, emotions can change for a whole host of reasons they're not always hormone related so it's best to be sure before making any changes. Hope you feel better soon!
