Hormone Therapy For Both Men & Women
It has been said that “everything gets better with age.” While that may be true for fine wine or cured meats, the adage is less accurate when applied to human body. For many people, middle age is when the body begins to show the wear and tear of the years gone by—signs of aging commonly related to hormonal imbalances. As you age, production of your natural hormones may be impaired. The body may produce too little of one hormone and too much of another. When hormone levels are below normal—and keep in mind that “normal” is different for every person—uncomfortable symptoms appear and unhealthy conditions or diseases may develop. Your quality of life diminishes and you wonder if you can ever reclaim that vibrant, energized person you were just a few short years, or perhaps even, just months, ago.
BHRT Therapy For Women
Nobody has to tell you when you’ve started the physical, mental and emotional roller coaster ride that is menopause. Just because your ovaries stop releasing eggs doesn’t mean you have to put up with the mood swings, hot flashes, diminishing bone density, heart disease risk, low libido, and vaginal dryness that hormonal deficiencies can stimulate. Just because you’ve been around for 45 – 55 years doesn’t mean your testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and DHEA levels have to suddenly drop and drain you of energy and fun. Instead of wondering how many hot flashes per day are normal, you should be asking yourself which one of these hormones need to be supplemented in order to stop those hot flashes in their tracks.
