Understanding Hormones and Hormone Therapy for Women
As women, our bodies are constantly changing and adapting to various stages of life. Hormones play a crucial role in regulating many of these changes, and imbalances can cause a range of symptoms and health issues. At Aarogya Holistic and Functional Medicine, we offer hormone therapy services to help women achieve optimal hormonal balance and improve their overall well-being.
What are Hormones? Hormones are chemical messengers that travel throughout the body, regulating various bodily functions such as metabolism, growth, and reproduction. In women, the primary hormones include estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance: Hormonal imbalances can cause a range of symptoms, including:
Irregular periods
Mood swings
Fatigue
Weight gain
Hot flashes
Night sweats
Low libido
Vaginal dryness
How Hormone Therapy Can Help: Hormone therapy involves using medications or supplements to balance hormone levels in the body. At Aarogya, we offer a range of hormone therapy services, including bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), which uses hormones that are identical in
molecular structure to those produced by the body. BHRT can help relieve symptoms of hormonal imbalance and reduce the risk of age-related diseases such as osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease.
Testing Before Treatment: Before starting hormone therapy, it's important to get your hormone levels tested. At Aarogya, we offer comprehensive hormone testing to identify any imbalances and create a personalized treatment plan.
Natural Ways to Balance Hormones: In addition to hormone therapy, there are also natural ways to support hormonal balance, such as:
Eating a healthy diet rich in whole foods, fruits, and vegetables
Exercising regularly
Getting enough sleep
Managing stress through relaxation techniques such as meditation and yoga
