Understanding Root Causes of Brain Fog
Brain fog isn’t just stress or lack of sleep – it often signals deeper imbalances in your body. Many women experience brain fog around perimenopause or menopause. At Sayana Medical, we investigate multiple factors that can affect cognitive function:
- Inflammation and immune dysfunction
- Gut-brain axis disruption
- Hormonal imbalances
- Mitochondrial dysfunction
- Blood sugar dysregulation
- Environmental toxin exposure
