5 Simple Swaps to Support Your Daughter’s Hormones (Without Overhauling Your Whole Life)
Let’s talk about your girl for a minute.
She’s growing fast, her hormones are finding their rhythm, and some days it feels like emotions are on a roller coaster you didn’t sign up for. (Been there. 💁‍♀️)

But here’s the thing — it’s not all “just puberty.”
Our girls are exposed to hormone-disrupting chemicals every single day — in their makeup, food, clothes, and even their water bottles.
Let’s break down a typical day, shall we?

A Day in the Life of Hidden Hormone Disruptors

🌞 Morning: She swipes on mascara and lotion made with parabens.
🏃‍♀️ Afternoon: She snacks from a plastic bag while wearing synthetic leggings.
📚 Evening: She eats dinner from BPA-lined cans and fights through homework tears.

You’re not imagining things — her body is overwhelmed.

But here’s the good news: you can make simple swaps that truly make a difference.

5 Easy Swaps to Support Her Hormones Naturally

You don’t need to throw everything out overnight. Just start small. Each of these swaps lightens her toxic load and helps her body find balance again.

Healthy Swap 
Hormone Disruptor 
Glass water bottle
Plastic water bottle
Natural deodorant
Conventional deodorant
Beeswax food wraps
Plastic wrap
Fresh produce
Canned goods
Unscented lotion
Scented body products

Little by little, these shifts create a cleaner environment for her growing body — and for the whole family, too.

Natural Hormone Support: Essential Oils for Puberty & Mood

When hormones surge and moods swing, a few drops of the right essential oils can make a world of difference. These Young Living favorites are gentle, effective, and 100% plant-based:

🌿 Dragon Time – Supports mood swings, cramps, and monthly cycles
🌿 Progessence Plus – Soothes acne, migraines, and PMS (My 13-year-old’s favorite!)
🌿 EndoFlex – Balances the endocrine system and supports energy (She LOVES this one too!)
🌿 Lavender – Calms emotions and promotes restful sleep

🧴 Apply on her lower belly or back, or diffuse during those “rough days.”


Skip the Synthetic Perfumes — Try This Instead

Let’s be real — tween girls love to smell good. 💜
But most body sprays and perfumes are loaded with hormone-disrupting chemicals.

That’s why I’m obsessed with Wyld Notes — a plant-based, emotionally balancing scent line made just for tweens and teens.
No synthetic junk. No hidden toxins. Just pure, beautiful blends that help her feel confident and calm.




The Heart Behind It All

Mama, this isn’t about perfection. It’s about progress — one healthy swap, one empowering choice at a time.
When we help our daughters support their hormones naturally, we’re teaching them to listen to their bodies, honor their emotions, and care for themselves from the inside out.
You’re doing great. Truly. 💛
Big hugs,
Terri

WELL, HELLO!

 
Hi Friend!


I’m Terri Bonin—wife to my favorite dentist (who keeps me smiling in more ways than one!) and mama to eleven incredible kiddos… yep, on purpose! Now, they’re growing up, getting married, and multiplying, so our family is basically the size of a small town!

I’ve homeschooled for over 25 years (with several more to go until our youngest, who’s eleven, graduates). I was crunchy before it was cool and slathering essential oils on my kids before they were a thing. Around here, I share mom hacks, marriage wisdom, wellness tips, and real-life glimpses into our beautifully chaotic, laughter-filled home.

I hope you find this space happy, helpful, and relatable! And if you love good conversations, come hang out with me on my podcast, "Terri Bonin At Home", where we chat about building a strong family culture, natural remedies, and navigating the wonderful (and sometimes wild) world of marriage and motherhood.

Let’s do life together—one drop, one laugh, and one lesson at a time!
