The power of 3: how oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone work
Hormones are chemical messengers found throughout your body, telling it what to do and when. They are involved in your growth and development, metabolism, emotions, sexual and reproductive function, sleep and blood pressure. They help you fall in love, bond with offspring, power you to the finish line and make you feel happy, sad, furious and everything in between.

We’ve created three downloadable posters that give you a whistlestop tour of the influence and impact of oestradiol (oestrogen), progesterone and testosterone throughout your body – to download just click here.
