Hormone Health
Re-balance your hormones naturally
Hormonal symptoms can impact all aspects of our life, including our well-being, physical and emotional health, relationships and work life. Natural hormone treatment can drastically improve your life while avoiding the side effects of hormone replacement therapy.
There are hormonal concerns that can present in women and men.
Conventional treatments are helpful for replacing hormones that may be deficient, such as in certain genetic conditions.
For conditions in which hormones may be imbalanced or suboptimal, leading to problematic symptoms, naturopathic medicine offers treatments to re-balance hormones naturally via lifestyle modification, diet, herbal medicine and acupuncture.
We can assist you with menstrual irregularities and PMS, menopause and men’s health.
Menstrual Irregularities
There are several ways that women can present with menstrual irregularities. It can be that their cycle itself is not regulated. It can come too often, not often enough, and menstrual flow volume may be too high or too low.
Additionally, many different problematic symptoms can occur before, during or after her periods.
Menopause
Menopause is associated with a declining function of the ovaries and thereby a reduction in the hormones that they release, primarily, progesterone, estrogen and testosterone. As a consequence, signs and symptoms may present. These include some of the following: hot flashes, night sweats, disturbed sleep, irritability, mood changes, decreased libido, vaginal dryness, bone loss, headaches, urinary incontinence, dizziness, hair loss and weight gain.
Because of the onset of these symptoms, menopause has unfortunately, but understandably, become commonly viewed as a disease state.
The good news is that menopausal symptoms can be treated to ensure that your transition is more smooth and to improve your quality of life.
