Hormones are powerful chemical messengers that regulate many processes in the body. When hormone levels drop too low or become too high, you may experience symptoms associated with hormone imbalance. Some common signs include:
Fatigue Lack of energy and constant tiredness are very common with hormone changes. Thyroid, testosterone, estrogen and other hormones all impact energy levels.
Trouble Sleeping Hormone shifts can make it difficult to fall and stay asleep. This leads to daytime fatigue and impairment.
Depression and Anxiety Hormonal factors strongly influence mood and mental health. Imbalances can trigger or worsen depression, anxiety, irritability and other issues.
Weight Gain Appetite regulation involves intricate hormonal signals. Low metabolism, fluid retention and greater fat storage are also tied to hormones.
Loss of Muscle Mass Testosterone and growth hormone are essential for building and maintaining lean muscle mass. Deficiencies contribute significantly to muscle loss.
Hot Flashes and Night Sweats Declining estrogen is the primary cause of vasomotor symptoms in perimenopause and menopause. However, thyroid dysfunction can also be a factor.
Hair Thinning and Loss Androgens like testosterone and DHT bind receptors in hair follicles to regulate growth cycles. Changing androgen levels alter growth patterns.
Foggy Thinking and Memory Lapses Estrogen, cortisol and thyroid hormone are needed for optimal brain function. Imbalances lead to difficulty concentrating, cloudy thinking and memory problems.
Decreased Libido Healthy libido relies on adequate testosterone, estrogen and other reproductive hormones. Low levels frequently manifest as loss of sex drive and function.
Other Issues Brittle nails, dry skin, headaches, gut issues, erratic periods, erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness and irregular heart rhythms may also arise.
The range of symptoms reflects how thoroughly hormones facilitate communication between cells throughout the body. Restoring balance is key for metabolism, mental health, quality of life and proper systemic function.
The first step is confirming whether underlying hormone issues are causing symptoms. This involves specialized testing that is vastly more insightful than standard screens. Targeted hormone panels help uncover the root causes of imbalance. Key values to measure include:
Thyroid Hormones TSH, free T3 and free T4 indicate functional thyroid status related to metabolism, weight, energy, body temperature and more.
Adrenal Hormones Cortisol and DHEA reveal daily patterns affecting stress resilience, inflammation, immune health, mood, sleep and weight.
Reproductive Hormones Estradiol, progesterone, total and free testosterone, LH, FSH and SHBG for symptoms linked to menopause, andropause and fertility.
Growth Hormone and IGF-1 Critical for maintaining lean muscle mass and supporting energy, joint health, injury repair and longevity.
Vitamins and Inflammatory Markers B12, vitamin D, CRP and homocysteine highlight nutritional status and influences on chronic inflammation underlying hormone issues and many diseases.
Results are compared against optimal ranges based on age and gender to determine which hormones are imbalanced and why dysfunction is occurring. This enables tailored treatment plans targeting proper balance.
Ask about advanced hormone testing options to uncover potential issues. Identifying and addressing underlying deficiencies and excesses provides the foundation for better health and wellness at any age.
The first step toward treating hormone imbalance is confirming via testing which hormones are suboptimal so customized treatment plans can restore proper balance and communication throughout the body.
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structures as hormones naturally produced by the body. This allows receptor binding and physiological effects to precisely mirror natural function. Synthetic hormones are structurally different, altering activity.
Custom-compounded bioidentical hormones and dosages can be tailored to match deficiencies or deficits confirmed by testing. This facilitates cellular communication, regulation of gene expression and metabolic processes. Benefits may include:
More Energy and Stamina Balancing key hormones raises metabolism, muscle strength, endurance and ability to be active all day without crashing.
Weight Loss and Healthy Body Composition Proper hormone levels make it easier to lose stubborn fat while maintaining lean muscle mass. This supports achieving and maintaining ideal weight.
Better Sleep Quality Optimal reproductive and adrenal hormones enable deeper, more restorative sleep. This also lessens anxiety, overthinking and insomnia.
Less Stress and Anxiety Bioidentical progesterone, pregnenolone and DHEA have demonstratively positive effects on mood, stress resilience and emotional wellbeing.
Healthy Inflammatory Response Estrogen, testosterone and growth factors help regulate immune function. Optimizing levels enhances defense against diseases linked to inflammation like diabetes and dementia.
More Libido and Better Sexual Function Reinvigorated libido, arousal response, sensation, orgasm intensity and sexual satisfaction are common results of balanced testosterone, estrogen and DHEA.
Improved Memory, Focus and Concentration Supporting thyroid, adrenal and sex hormones enhances multiple aspects of cognitive function throughout the lifespan.
Healthy Bones, Muscles and Joints Testosterone, estrogen, DHEA, IGF-1 and growth hormone all help build and maintain bone matrix, muscle mass and collagen for injury resilience.
Younger-Looking Skin and Fuller Hair Collagen synthesis for skin plumpness and elasticity relies on balanced hormone levels. Thyroid and sex hormones support lush hair growth.
Disease Prevention Optimizing hormone balance safeguards metabolic and immune function, reducing risks for diabetes, dementia, cardiovascular issues, osteoporosis and some cancers.
Symptoms arise when key hormones fall out of optimal ranges. Restoring balance facilitates proper systemic communication to get your body and health back on track. The array of benefits reflects the ubiquitous importance of healthy hormone signaling.

Hormone therapy can help improve skin thickness and elasticity. A study found that estrogen-based hormone therapy increased skin collagen content, improved skin moisture and firmness, and decreased wrinkles in postmenopausal women. This skin-rejuvenating effect was an unexpected benefit of hormone therapy traditionally used to relieve menopausal symptoms.
The thyroid produces metabolic hormones T3 and T4 that set the pace for energy production, weight management, body temperature, mood and more. Low levels slow metabolism contributing to fatigue, stubborn weight gain, feeling cold, brain fog and depression. Bioidentical thyroid supplementation benefits include:
Increased Basal Metabolic Rate Boosts calories and fat burned at rest for easier weight loss and leaner body composition.
Elimination of Stubborn Fat Accumulation Provides thyroid support needed for weight loss plateaus, belly fat and cellulite reduction.
All-Day Energy Without Crashes Allows sustaining stamina instead of chronic afternoon fatigue and stimulation seeking with caffeine or sugar.
Enhanced Cognitive Abilities Supports focus, learning capacity, memory, reaction time, mood stability and motivation.
Better Cellular and Immune Function Thyroid hormones facilitate DNA expression, mitochondria energy output, detoxification and disease defenses.
Healthy Skin, Hair and Nails Stimulates collagen production for skin elasticity and hair follicles for thicker, fuller locks.
Disease Protection Low thyroid function is linked to risks for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autoimmunity, infertility, dementia and certain cancers. Optimization safeguards many aspects of health.
Balanced thyroid hormone levels provide the biological foundation for whole-body vitality and wellness throughout life.
