Hormones play an essential role in the growth, development and maturity of men and women. They have the ability to affect a person’s weight gain or weight loss, mood, libido and so much more. Unfortunately, many individuals do not take the time to have their hormones accurately assessed. As a result, they struggle with different physical, emotional and psychological conditions that could otherwise be prevented or removed if they were able to get their hormones in balance.
Since hormones affect just about every part of your body, it is beneficial to undergo a comprehensive hormone assessment at Better Life Carolinas in order to determine your hormone levels. This in-depth assessment can be used as part of a personalized age management program that seeks to balance your hormones, leading to a better quality of life.
Throughout the years, both men and women will experience a decline or fluctuation in certain hormones, such as:
- Testosterone
- Estrogen
- Pregnenolone
- Dehydroepiandrosterone, or DHEA
- Progesterone
This change in hormones can negatively affect men and women in a variety of different ways. Some of the most common symptoms include:
- Loss of libido
- More frequent headaches
- Sleeping and eating problems
- Decreased bone density
- Loss of focus/alertness
While these symptoms are enough of a concern on their own, they can lead to even more serious health issues if not addressed as soon as possible. This is one of the reasons why getting a hormone assessment is so important. It allows a person to see where they stand with their hormone levels so that they can start making the necessary changes to balance them.
Once our team at Better Life has assessed your hormone levels, they can come up with a comprehensive treatment plan for you in order to improve your condition. Hormone therapy and other methods may be used in this process; it all depends on your unique needs.
It is essential that anyone dealing with symptoms that might indicate a hormone imbalance have a hormone assessment done at Better Life Carolinas. The last thing you want to do is keep quiet and live with your symptoms. Let Dr. Mickey Barber and her team be your guides to a better life. When your hormones are back in line with where they should be, your overall quality of life will greatly improve.
