Hormone Nutritionist Singapore
When your hormones shift, everything shifts with them — your energy, weight, mood, sleep, skin, cycles, and even your sense of self.
If you’ve been feeling “off” and can’t quite explain why, you’re not alone. Many people in Singapore struggle with hormonal imbalances without realising that symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, bloating, adult acne, painful periods, hot flashes, weight gain, or irregular cycles are often rooted in deeper biological changes — not a lack of discipline or self-care.
As a functional-medicine-trained naturopath and nutritionist in Singapore, I help you uncover what’s really going on beneath the symptoms. Using advanced hormone testing, gut and metabolic assessments, nutritional strategies, and gentle lifestyle shifts, we address the root causes of hormonal imbalance so your body can find its natural rhythm again.
Whether you’re dealing with PMS, PCOS, perimenopause, thyroid issues, stress-related changes, or unexplained symptoms that no one has been able to piece together, you deserve support that feels clear, validating, and genuinely transformative.

Why Work With a Functional-Medicine Nutritionist for Hormone Balance
Balancing hormones is not just about regulating your cycle or managing symptoms.
Hormones are chemical messengers that affect nearly every system in your body.
When they are imbalanced, it can show up in many ways:
-
Gut–Hormone Axis: Poor digestion, dysbiosis, candida, slow motility, or leaky gut can disrupt estrogen metabolism, worsen PMS, trigger inflammation, and affect mood.
-
Adrenal & Cortisol Patterns: Chronic stress, “tired-but-wired” nights, poor sleep, and emotional load disrupt cortisol rhythms, affecting weight, cravings, anxiety, and fatigue.
-
Blood Sugar & Insulin: Even small dysregulations in glucose control can cause cravings, fatigue, weight plateaus, mood fluctuations, and hormonal acne.
-
Thyroid Function: Suboptimal thyroid activity contributes to weight gain, hair loss, constipation, low energy, cold intolerance, and menstrual irregularities.
-
Inflammation Pathways: Cytokines, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation shift hormonal activity, affect ovulation, alter cortisol, and dysregulate metabolism.
-
Nervous System Regulation: Your brain–body stress loop strongly affects cortisol, progesterone, sleep, appetite, and emotional well-being.
-
Liver Detoxification Pathways: Your liver clears excess hormones; sluggish detox pathways can worsen PMS, bloating, breast tenderness, irritability, and heavy bleeding.
-
Genetics: Variants affecting estrogen detoxification, methylation, inflammation, and stress resilience influence hormonal symptoms.
The Lūmi·ya approach integrates all these dimensions — because hormonal balance never comes from addressing just one system.
My Approach: Evidence-Based,
Personalised & Gentle
At Lūmi·ya, hormone support is not about extreme diets, harsh detoxes, or rigid protocols. It is about restoring physiological balance, calming inflammation, supporting metabolism, and helping your body regain hormonal rhythm.
1. A Comprehensive Functional Assessment
We begin by understanding your menstrual history, symptoms, digestion, sleep, mood, stress load, weight changes, energy cycles, cravings, and overall lifestyle.
If relevant, I may recommend advanced functional tests such as:
• DUTCH Comprehensive Hormone Testing
To assess estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol rhythms, adrenal health, detox pathways, and stress hormones that influence mood, weight, sleep, and cycles.
• Gut & Microbiome Testing
Because digestion and microbiome composition directly affect estrogen metabolism, inflammation, absorption, and cortisol balance.
• Thyroid Panel (Functional Patterns)
To identify subtle thyroid underactivity that may be missed by basic blood tests.
• Organic Acids Testing
To assess nutrient status, mitochondrial energy, detox pathways, stress metabolites, and hidden drivers of fatigue or weight resistance.
• Genetic Testing
To uncover tendencies affecting estrogen clearance, methylation, inflammation, insulin sensitivity, stress resilience, and weight pathways.
These tests help us understand why your hormones are imbalanced — instead of guessing.
2. Personalised Nutrition — Not a Restrictive Hormone Diet
Your plan is tailored to your hormonal profile, metabolic needs, cultural eating patterns, and personal preferences, focusing on:
-
balancing blood sugar & reducing insulin spikes
-
supporting estrogen detoxification
-
replenishing key nutrients (iron, zinc, B vitamins, omega-3s, magnesium, iodine)
-
improving sleep, cortisol, and stress resilience
-
nourishing the microbiome
-
supporting thyroid activity gently
-
stabilising mood & energy
-
creating simple meals that fit real life
This is sustainable, supportive nutrition — not short-term restriction.
3. Lifestyle Shifts That Support Metabolism
We weave in gentle, science-backed practices such as:
-
mindful eating for glucose stability
-
circadian and sleep rhythm support
-
nervous system & vagus regulation
-
menstrual cycle–based lifestyle adjustments
-
simple lymphatic & detox-supporting rituals
-
breathwork to modulate cortisol
-
movement matched to your energy phases
These small shifts create measurable hormonal improvements over time — without overwhelming your schedule.
4. Sustainable Supplements (Only When Needed)
I use high-quality supplements selectively to support:
-
adrenal resilience & cortisol regulation
-
thyroid function
-
menstrual regularity
-
estrogen metabolism & detox pathways
-
inflammation modulation
-
nutrient replenishment
-
gut repair
-
sleep & mood balance
All recommendations are short-term, therapeutic, and personalised — not long-term dependency.

How My Work Differs
Gynaecologists & Doctors
Doctors typically assess hormone symptoms through medical testing, imaging, and medication-based support (HRT, contraceptives, thyroid medication when indicated).
Many of my clients come to me because they:
-
want to understand the root causes behind their symptoms
-
prefer a natural, supportive approach
-
find that traditional tests come back “normal” yet symptoms persist
-
want help integrating lifestyle, nutrition, and stress physiology into their healing
I do not diagnose or manage medications. Instead, I focus on physiological patterns, metabolic shifts, cortisol rhythms, gut health, and lifestyle drivers that influence hormonal balance from within.
General Nutritionists & Health Coaches
Most general approaches to hormonal support focus on basic nutrition, weight advice, and lifestyle suggestions.
While helpful, they may not explain why symptoms persist — or how gut health, cortisol, inflammation, and thyroid function shape hormonal expression.
My functional-medicine approach includes:
-
clinical-grade hormone testing (DUTCH)
-
cortisol rhythm analysis
-
thyroid & adrenal interpretation
-
gut–hormone axis assessment
-
personalised metabolic & lifestyle strategies
-
nervous system regulation
-
genetic insights (when relevant)
This gives a structured, evidence-informed framework for supporting hormones from a whole-body perspective.
