Fatigue, depression, hot flashes, night sweats, weight gain, low libido, and brain fog can all signal hormone deficiencies. Imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid and other hormones often develop gradually, so many write off mild symptoms. However, hormones profoundly impact health and not addressing imbalances can enable development of more serious conditions over time.
In perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, declining estrogen levels commonly cause:
Deficient testosterone in both men and women can lead to:
Bioidentical hormone replacement delivers hormones chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body to correct deficiencies and alleviate unpleasant symptoms.
Bioidentical hormones are typically administered by:
Initial dosing depends on lab tests and medical history. Follow up bloodwork tracks progress toward ideal levels, monitoring for under or overtreatment. Dosing continually adjusts to evolving needs over the aging process.
correcting hormone deficiencies with bioidentical therapy provides wide-ranging benefits:
Rebalancing hormones alleviates discomforts impairing quality of life like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, erectile dysfunction, trouble sleeping, weight gain, and lack of motivation.
Balanced hormones enhance physical health - reducing heart disease risks, strengthening bones, improving skin and hair, supporting muscle development, aiding weight loss, and boosting metabolism.
Imbalanced hormones often negatively impact mood. Correcting deficiencies frequently sharpens focus, lifts depression, eases anxiety, and restores a brighter, more positive and motivated outlook.
Bioidentical hormones match those produced naturally by the body, making them safer with fewer side effects than traditional synthetic hormones. Ongoing monitoring further enhances safety.
Because hormone levels decline gradually, people often adapt without realizing swinging levels undermine wellness. However, allowing deficiencies to persist enables gradual development of more severe health conditions.
Therefore, at the first suspicion of deficiency, complete lab testing and start treatment if warranted. Identifying and correcting hormonal imbalances early provides greater, lasting benefits and prevents progression of more serious diseases.
Do not write off unpleasant symptoms as an inevitable part of aging. Take charge of health - determine if hormone optimization could provide welcome relief.
Although manufactured in a lab, bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structure as the hormones naturally produced by the human body. This allows them to bind to receptors and mimic natural hormones more closely than synthetic ones, though debate continues over their long-term safety and efficacy.
