=== Root Causes: ===
• Hormonal Suppression – Synthetic hormones override natural ovulation and hormone production.

• Nutrient Depletion – Long-term contraceptive use depletes B vitamins, zinc, magnesium, and antioxidants.

• Liver Detoxification Burden – Increased workload to metabolize synthetic hormones.

• Dysbiosis & Gut Health Disruption – Birth control can alter gut microbiome and increase intestinal permeability.

• Estrogen Dominance & Detox Challenges – Estrogen metabolism issues can contribute to PMS, mood swings, and weight gain.

• Post-Birth Control Syndrome (PBCS) – Symptoms like acne, irregular cycles, and fatigue after discontinuation.
