Hormone deficiencies occur when the endocrine glands do not produce enough hormones to maintain proper bodily functions. Hormones like estrogen, testosterone, cortisol and thyroid hormones regulate metabolism, tissue function, growth, sexual function and reproductive processes.
When hormone levels drop below normal ranges, numerous unpleasant symptoms may occur. Fatigue, weakness, insomnia, low libido, erratic periods, hot flashes, and depression are common. In children, growth and puberty may be delayed. Hormone imbalances can negatively impact quality of life.
Fortunately, many cases of hormonal insufficiency are treatable. Under a doctor's supervision, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help restore optimal functioning. At Hormone Harmony Clinic, our compassionate medical providers use cutting-edge diagnostic testing to accurately identify deficiencies. We then develop customized treatment regimens utilizing bioidentical hormones to alleviate troublesome symptoms and promote wellbeing.
Adrenal insufficiency, sometimes called Addison's disease, arises when the adrenal glands produce inadequate cortisol and aldosterone. This can cause weakness, weight loss, dizziness upon standing, cravings for salt, and pigmentation changes. Treatment involves cortisol replacement through oral medication, injections, or topical creams. We've helped many patients recover their zest for life!
An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) develops when thyroid hormone output slows, causing fatigue, sensitivity to cold, constipation, unexplained weight gain, and muscle aches. Daily thyroid hormone supplementation effectively reverses low thyroid symptoms. Clients often tell us they feel like themselves again!
In perimenopausal, menopausal and postmenopausal women, declining estrogen and progesterone can lead to hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, anxiety, irritability, and interrupted sleep. At Hormone Harmony Clinic, we provide balanced bioidentical hormone therapy (BHT) to lessen discomfort and improve sleep and mood. Many women are thrilled with their newly restored vitality and comfort.
Andropause, sometimes called ‘male menopause’, arises as testosterone levels decline in aging men. This manifests as low energy, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, and erectile dysfunction. Under medical guidance, testosterone replacement via injections, gels or pellets can effectively alleviate uncomfortable andropausal symptoms. We love helping men reclaim their strength and virility!
