Hormone Deficiency Treatment
You felt a little “off.” Tired, spacey, no ambition, no sex drive. Have you considered hormone deficiency treatment?
You blamed work and stress, and after a few months, it just became something you thought you had to deal with every day.
Don’t live a second-rate life in an exhausted haze! Getting the energy and drive you need and the happiness you deserve may be as simple as treating a hormone deficiency.
A simple blood test can determine if you are low in one of the major hormones that keep us physically and mentally on track: testosterone, estrogen and thyroid.
Why are hormones important?
Hormones are chemicals secreted by glands and delivered to cells throughout the body. They manage cell and tissue functions. Testosterone and estrogen, the “male” and “female” hormones, work together in the brains of both sexes to produce serotonin, critical for healthy sleep habits and emotional well-being. Thyroid hormones are critical for metabolic processes in cells throughout the body.
Women who have gone through perimenopause or menopause, whether through age or medically induced, may have low estrogen levels. However, low estrogen levels can occur in women of all ages and reproductive statuses. Women will lose 50 percent of their testosterone by the ages 30 to 40.
Low estrogen causes:
- Fatigue
- Lack of sexual desire
- Painful intercourse
- Sleep issues
- Agitation
- Mental “fog”
- Weight gain
Most men will experience a decrease in testosterone with age, with some studies showing a loss of up to 1-3% per year between ages 30 and 70. Men with testosterone deficiency may experience:
- Fatigue
- Lack of mental acuity
- Loss of libido
- Sexual issues including difficulty achieving or sustaining an erection
- Increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, osteoporosis, prostate cancer, and others
Low testosterone levels can impact women, too, and is linked to physical issues such as muscle atrophy, joint pain and osteoporosis and mental symptoms such as increased anxiety, irritability, sleep disturbances, night sweats, anger, sadness, and depression.
Men and women can be impacted by low thyroid hormones, or hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism affects about 40% of Americans, so it’s an important hormone to monitor.
Low thyroid hormone symptoms include:
- Fatigue
- Weight gain
- Depression
- Sore muscles and joints
- Dry and brittle hair and nails
- Other health issues
Leaving any hormone deficiency untreated in either sex can have a long-term health impact on the brain, muscle, bone, heart, and metabolism.
