How to Tell if Your Hormones are Unbalanced?

As we age, there’s a natural tendency for men and women to develop a hormone imbalance. The symptoms suffered by people with irregular hormone levels can create negative aging effects and even create infertility, chronic illness and disease. At the Harley Institute Institute, we strive to help provide Atlanta area residents with optimum health, wellness and skin care, so you can look and feel your best. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, otherwise known as HRT, is an incredible method for restoring hormonal equilibrium in people of all genders and ages, and can help you reduce the sometimes-debilitating issues that cause early aging and illness in individuals.  

What Role do Hormones Play in Your Overall Health? 

Hormones are vital molecules produced by different endocrine glands in the human body. These hormones are then used to communicate necessary information between tissues and organs and therefore help to regulate functions like respiratory function, reproduction, emotions, sleep, metabolism, mental cognition, muscle movement and more. Included in these vital hormones are progesterone, estrogen and testosterone, which are essential to the health and wellbeing of both men and women. 

Common Signs of a Hormone Imbalance

Hormonal imbalance can create symptoms as severe as thyroid dysfunction, diabetes, heart disease and certain forms of cancer. However, these issues don’t often occur until the imbalance has been in place for a long time. Initial signs of imbalanced hormone levels can be deceivingly subtle, and may present themselves as normal manifestations of the natural aging process. Common red flags are difficulty becoming pregnant, miscarriages, high or low blood sugar, chronic anxiety, depression, fatigue, insomnia, mood swings, frequent migraines, hunger cravings, sudden fluctuations in weight, low libido and more. If you are suffering from one or more of these issues, there’s a good chance you have a hormone imbalance. Dr. Harley and her team of specialists can conduct the appropriate tests, and if it’s found that you have low levels of a certain hormone, can implement innovative techniques to help restore energy and health.

How Can Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy Help?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy reintroduces hormones like estrogen, progesterone or testosterone back into your system. Creams, pellets and injections are all non-surgical, minimally invasive techniques that provide naturally derived, non-synthetic hormones that can be used by the body to raise low hormone levels and resume equilibrium. Over time, the rebalanced hormones will help to ease and sometimes even eliminate the negative symptoms associated with the initial imbalance, restoring patients to a state of youthful vibrancy. At the Harley Institute Institute in Atlanta, Georgia, we offer a variety of HRT services and complimentary procedures that can help provide solutions to your hormonal and age related problems.
