  • For women problems with hormone related anxiety, memory problems and depression often go undiagnosed. Some women may struggle to understand the developments happening within their body at different stages of their lives. Below are imbalances and problems you may recognise in yourself, if your symptoms are listed below you may benefit from bio identical hormone replacement.

    Oestrogen Dominance or Low Progesterone results in mood swings, migraines, fat gain in the hips and thighs whereas low Oestrogen or fluctuations can trigger hot flushes, night sweats, palpitations, foggy thinking, memory lapse or vaginal discharge. Low naturally occurring testosterone leads to decreases in bone or muscle mass, metabolism, energy, strength, stamina, exercise and libido. Heightened Cortisol results in insomnia, anxiety, sugar cravings, feeling tired but wired and increase of stomach fat, whereas low cortisol caused chronic fatigue, low energy, food and sugar cravings, poor exercise tolerance or recovery and low immune reserves. Changes in oestrogen and progesterone levels can impact neurotransmitter levels. For instance, a drop in oestrogen can result in a drop in serotonin and therefore can affect your mental health. Changes in oestrogen levels can lead to thyroid symptoms like slowed metabolism and always feeling cold. In fact, many women experience menopause will be diagnosed with hypothyroidism.

  • As a man ages, his body naturally produced less testosterone. In fact, by the time a man is in his mid-forties, testosterone levels can be down by 40%. Lifestyle facts such as excessive stress, weight gain, and lack of exercise can lower levels even further – impacting stamina, drive and virility. Men tend to notice a subtle downward shift in strength and energy first, followed by lack of enthusiasm for life’s challenges like work and competition. A man may also lose interest in sex. The hidden imbalances contributing to these factors generally include the following:

    Low Testosterone and high oestrogen lead to decreased stamina and libido, fatigue and erectile dysfunction. High oestrogen results in weight gain, increased chest and belly fat, hot flashes, night sweats and excessive need to urinate.

    High Cortisol results in insomnia, anxiety, sugar cravings, feeling tired but wired and increased belly fat. Low Cortisol causes chronic fatigue, low energy, food and sugar cravings, poor exercise tolerance or recovery and low immune reserves.

    A thyroid imbalance is commonly missed in men and may often mimic symptoms of low testosterone and cardio metabolic issues can induce high blood pressure and diabetes. High DHT can also be experienced and results in an excessive need to urinate, hair loss and acne.
