YOU’RE NOT CRAZY OR ALONE!!
While we all use the same hormones to do similar tasks, women’s bodies are more sensitive to imbalances in many of the hormone shifts that can happen. Estrogen, active and inactive, balances with progesterone which helps to keep us calm and can help regulate blood pressure. The thyroid and testosterone (yes, we need it too) balance with growth hormone for optimal immune and gut function as well as support lean muscle production, red blood cell production and bone marrow production to help prevent osteopenia and osteoporosis. DHEA and how interacts with all of the sex hormones as the conductor of processes and how cortisol balances it. And the list goes on…
STATUS QUO or No?
The answer for men seemed to become available at every turn with Testosterone Replacement programs popping up in-person and online, leaving most women feeling broken and alone. As we move from age 35 into our 40s and 50’s, we start seeing and feeling changes and possibly excuse them with the kids, the job, the husband, the ugh whatever. BUT, because women have only recently (the last 40 years or so) become properly studied in medicine as different from men and our physiological changes as well, what we think we know is minimal at best and mostly represents what medicine knows about men.
GETTING IT RIGHT, FINALLY!
The brass tax is that women are not broken, weird, or alone. EVERY woman is currently, or going to go through in the near future, the same changes. When and at what severity depends on so many factors. That’s why an individual conversation detailing family history, their own medical and physical history, medication use from even early ages, the use of antibiotics, activity level, and things that may simply seem unrelated like falls off the bike, out of a tree, or even surgical intervention are crazy important. We use these variables to determine where you are currently and how we can tailor supplement, nutrition, exercise, and hormonal strategy to not only improve how you feel and look, but how your body works for years to come, prevent dis-ease and illness, and optimize brain function, weight, lean muscle mass, and so much more!
Many women begin noticing these symptoms well before actual menopause begins and feel helpless. Unfortunately, general medicine has fallen short to educate and assist them in replacing what’s needed to put them to rest. Things like:
Brain fog & Memory – unable to recall small details and forgetting a thought almost as you’re thinking it or forgetting recent details
Body warmth – hot flashes and night sweats or feelings of being flushed, waking up hot and sweaty, and the inability to cool down after exercise.
Rapidly shifting moods, onset of anxiety or feelings of despair, depression
Vaginal dryness or painful intercourse or loss of sex drive
Increase weight even with good nutrition and exercise
Thinning hair – especially around the hairline and eyebrows
Change in appetite – increased sugar cravings
Breast tenderness or breast size changes
Increased wrinkles and diminished elasticity, cellulite, and dry skin
