Your Bath Products Might Be Messing With Your Hormones (And Here’s How You Can Fix It)

Because the only mood swings we need are from too much coffee.

Ever feel exhausted, bloated, or just off—and have no idea why?

It might be your bath products. Yep, that “relaxing” soak could actually be throwing your hormones into chaos.

Let’s break it down.

How Endocrine Disruptors Sneak Into Your Bath

Mass-market bath products often contain phthalates, parabens, and synthetic fragrances—all of which are known endocrine disruptors.

🛑 Phthalates: Linked to reproductive issues and hormonal imbalances.
🛑 Parabens: Mimic estrogen and disrupt natural hormone cycles.
🛑 Synthetic Fragrances: Contain hidden chemicals that interfere with thyroid function.
