The Importance of Hormone Balance
Why is Hormone Balance Important?
You may have heard the phrase “hormone balance” before, but what does it mean and does it matter?
Most women see a significant drop in estrogen and testosterone during menopause, while many men may experience a similar phenomenon relating to testosterone, known as andropause.
Hormonal imbalances occur when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream.
Hormones are important for regulating most major bodily processes. Because of their essential role in the body, even the smallest hormonal imbalance can cause side effects throughout the body.
Symptoms of imbalanced hormones may include:
- Decreased sex drive (libido)
- Fatigue or lack of energy
- Stubborn weight gain
- Sleep issues
- Irritability
- Mood swings
- Brain fog
- And more
