Hormonal status here refers to the interplay between female sex hormones (oestrogen and progesterone), stress hormones (specifically cortisol), and thyroid hormones (TSH, T4, T3). Sex hormone production and balance is particularly sensitive to levels of stress hormones.
Stress has a profound effect on oestrogen/progesterone balance, as well as creating unnecessary inflammation in the body.

Being a busy Mum is therefore not an easy time when wanting (or needing) to lose weight, especially for new Mums wishing to regain their pre-pregnancy shape.
