Gallbladder Problems
The gallbladder is a small organ responsible for storing the bile produced in the liver and releasing it as needed. An imbalance in progesterone or estrogen can cause slow metabolism of hormones. This further exacerbates the hormonal problem and can lead to gallbladder stones or sludge.7‘The Gallbladder Hormone Connection: Dr. Courtney Holmberg, ND.’ Toronto Naturopathic Doctor, www.courtneyholmbergnd.ca/blog/gallbladder-hormone-connection
Common symptoms of gallbladder problems include a sudden pain beneath the right ribcage or irregular stool. Pain between the shoulder blades, heartburn, gas and bloating are also commonly seen.
