Hormonal imbalances can impact everything from energy and mood to skin health, sleep, and menstrual cycles. At Next Wave Therapy, we offer seed cycling as part of a personalised naturopathic approach to help balance hormones, support reproductive health, and promote overall wellbeing — naturally and gently.
Whether you’re dealing with PMS, perimenopause, menopause symptoms, or fertility challenges, seed cycling can be a simple, food-based strategy to restore hormonal rhythm and reduce symptoms.
What is Seed Cycling?
Seed cycling is a natural method that involves rotating specific seeds during different phases of your menstrual cycle to support healthy estrogen and progesterone levels.
- Follicular Phase (Days 1–14) – Flax seeds & pumpkin seeds
- Luteal Phase (Days 15–28) – Sesame seeds & sunflower seeds
Each seed type is rich in particular nutrients and phytoestrogens that can gently influence hormone production and metabolism.
Benefits of Seed Cycling
- Reduce PMS Symptoms – Bloating, cramps, mood swings, and headaches.
- Support Fertility – Encourage regular ovulation and hormonal balance.
- Ease Menopause & Perimenopause – Reduce hot flashes, night sweats, and mood changes.
- Improve Skin & Hair Health – Support healthy skin and reduce hormonal breakouts.
- Boost Mood & Energy – More consistent energy levels throughout the month.
Who Can Benefit from Seed Cycling?
Seed cycling may be helpful for:
- Women with irregular or painful periods
- Those experiencing perimenopausal or menopausal symptoms
- Women trying to conceive
- Individuals with PCOS or endometriosis (as part of a broader care plan)
- Anyone seeking a gentle, food-based hormone support strategy
