The sex hormones trigger soft tissue changes, skin, and hair growth. So an increase in Adrenaline causes the Heart to pump faster in readiness for the ‘fight or flight’ reflex.
Estrogen and Testosterone are obvious, but did you know Insulin and Adrenaline are Hormones? I didn’t.Įssentially they work by ‘switching on’ what I would call a ‘mode’ in a cell. What it did tell me was just how fascinating hormones are and we may not often realise just well known some of them are. There may be illegal sources but I’m not going to post them here. Recently they showed a program called “The Fantastical World of Hormones with Professor John Wass” which was a brilliant watch and very insightful.Ī clip of the program is available (probably just in the UK) at The Fantastical World of Hormones but sadly the BBC don’t hold programs on iPlayer for long and it’s no-longer available. Hormones, I’ve learnt, are incredible things and it’s a shame that the BBC tend not to leave one-off programs on their iPlayer for very long. Especially on my arms where it was very dark, it’s still quite dark but I’m sure finer now. I can’t believe I’ve already reached the end of the first month (well 28 days) of Hormones and I think the first changes are visible as I’m sure my body hair is finer.
