Understanding Root Causes of Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a complex condition with multiple contributing factors. During the perimenopausal and menopausal time frame women often experience fibromyalgia flares due to the changes in hormones and increases in systemic inflammation. At Sayana Medical, we investigate key areas that can influence symptom development:
- Central nervous system sensitization
- Mitochondrial dysfunction
- Gut microbiome imbalances
- Hormone dysregulation
- Chronic inflammation
- Environmental toxin exposure
