WHY DO I NEED HORMONE TESTING?

When it comes to hormones, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.  For years, the standard practice has been to prescribe hormone replacement therapy (HRT) as if everyone needs the same thing. In reality, each person’s hormonal profile is as unique as their fingerprints. To achieve optimal health, it’s crucial to identify your specific hormonal imbalances.

WHICH HORMONES NEED TESTING?

  • Cortisol: This adrenal hormone helps manage stress, blood sugar, metabolism, and energy. Low levels can lead to weight gain, fatigue, and depression.
  • DHEA: An essential adrenal hormone that helps with stress management and serves as a precursor to other hormones.
  • Thyroid Hormones (T3 & T4): Known as the hormones of energy and warmth, deficiencies can result in weight gain, low energy, and depression.
  • Pituitary Hormones: These include growth hormone, often referred to as the most powerful anti-aging hormone.
  • Estrogen: The primary female hormones exist in three forms (E1, E2, E3). Balancing these hormones can alleviate symptoms of PMS, perimenopause, and menopause while slowing aging-related changes.
  • Progesterone: This balancing hormone is vital for both men and women. Low progesterone levels can lead to irritability, depression, inflammation, and in women, irregular menstrual cycles. Men may experience urinary issues related to prostate health.
  • Testosterone: Essential for male virility, it also plays a significant role in women’s libido, mental clarity, and muscle mass.
