Hormone Balance

Hormones can rejuvenate, regenerate and restore. They are powerful chemical messengers that circulate throughout the body and travel to specific cells to orchestrate many vital internal functions. But even a small fluctuation in hormone levels can cause big changes at the cellular level—or disrupt the delicate balance throughout your entire body. Too much or too little of a hormone can have serious consequences for your overall health and well-being.

Hormone therapy is most often thought of with menopause and with low-T (testosterone) syndromes.

Women most often seek hormone therapy for relief of hot flashes, mood changes, sleep disturbances, decreased libido (sex drive), vaginal dryness and fatigue.

Men most often seek testosterone replacement therapy for symptoms of fatigue, decreased muscle mass, low libido (sex drive), increase in belly fat, decline in sexual performance and erectile dysfunction.

When hormones are rebalanced there is relief of the symptoms that come with hormone imbalance.

We at Spring Valley Family Care want you to feel great and are just as happy that symptoms of hormone imbalance are improved, but we also know that bio-identical hormone replacement therapy has other health benefits.

Health benefits associated with hormone replacement therapy include increased bone density, lowered risk of Alzheimer's disease, prevention of cardiovascular disease and certain cancers, just to name a few.

What to Expect…

The first step in regaining balanced hormones is scheduling a consultation. During the consultation, one of our providers will discuss your symptoms with you and see if you are indeed possibly suffering from hormone imbalance.

At the consultation, labs will be ordered to check hormone levels. Once the labs are completed and reviewed, it is time to discuss the best treatment options for you.
