  You are not alone.If this is you...YOU ARE NOT ALONE! I have had many many patients who have sat in my office with the exact same symptoms.And do you know that nearly every person had a hormone deficiency? It is very common, it is not abnormal, but it is something that is not talked about often enough.So that's what we are doing: we are changing that silence and shedding some light on hormones and what to do if you feel you are off balance.Here's the thing: You DON'T have to live the way you're living. You don't have to feel the way you're feeling. It is not something you just have to accept as your new normal.You've probably heard the opposite from friends, doctors, your mom, grandma, that you just have to get through it. It's part of life. But it can be done with ease and grace and it can actually be a very smooth transition. There are tools to help you live a high-quality life and feel vibrant and energetic as you age.Here Are 3 Tools to Get Started with Hormone Balancing.1. Testing, testing...It might sound basic but until you have a full picture of your hormonal profile you’re groping around in the dark with your well-being.Hormones act as messengers, traveling through the bloodstream to target tissues and determining how your body functions.

Therefore, it’s essential for hormone levels to be in proper balance.There’s a tendency to think that unless you’re a menopausal woman or maybe having trouble conceiving that hormone testing isn’t for you.You should get sex hormones as well as metabolic markers tested through blood work or get a DUTCH test to look at cortisol as well.Check out my blog post on hormone testing.2.

  You are brave! You KNOW there’s better health around the corner. You just need someone to partner with you to get the results you’ve been dreaming of. Hormones! “Hormones is not a four letter word.” ➡️ If your thyroid is low... you take thyroid.➡️ If your Vitamin D is low... you take Vitamin D. These things are common and mainstream, right? So if your hormone levels are low... then you should be taking bio-identical hormones to raise them to an optimal level. It's a no brainer. If you're exhausted, gaining weight, foggy, experiencing mood swings, or just overall not feeling “yourself," then let me know- because chances are, you guessed it! You need to have your hormones checked.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀You DESERVE to feel GOOD. You do not have to accept that “this is just how things are.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here Are 3 Tools to Get Started with Restoring Your Hormones1.
