How Do I Know if I Have a Hormone Imbalance? 

Hormone imbalances can occur for many reasons, including aging, stress, poor nutrition, and health conditions. If you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms that affect your daily life, it could be time to consider hormone testing. Getting tested and identifying imbalances early can prevent long-term health problems and improve your well-being.

Hormone Imbalance Symptoms

Hormone imbalances could manifest in many different ways, affecting your physical and emotional health. Common symptoms include:

For women, many of these symptoms often worsen during perimenopause and menopause. In this phase, your estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate and decline. Bioidentical hormone therapy can help to ease these symptoms and improve overall hormonal health.

How Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy Can Help You 

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a treatment that uses hormones nearly identical to the ones your body naturally makes. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are derived from plant-based sources. They are designed to mimic your body’s natural hormonal functions.

As women age, their estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels decline. This leads to various symptoms and increased health risks like osteoporosis, heart disease, and cognitive decline. BHRT can help by restoring hormone levels to:

Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

BHRT offers many benefits for women dealing with hormone imbalances. At Arcara Access, we will create a personalized treatment plan based on your body’s needs to help you feel your best. Some of the key benefits of BHRT include:

Symptom Relief

It effectively reduces fatigue, mood swings, and sleep disturbances.

Stronger bones

Estrogen helps maintain bone density, lowering the risk of fractures.

Heart health

Balanced hormones support good cholesterol levels and blood pressure.

Better brain function

HRT may protect against memory loss and cognitive decline.

Healthier skin and hair

Balanced hormones promote skin elasticity and hair growth.

Increased muscle strength

BHRT helps maintain muscle mass and prevent weakness.

Misconceptions About HRT

There are many myths about hormone therapy. This can mostly be pinned on outdated research. One well-known study, the Women’s Health Initiative, raised concerns about HRT. However, later reviews showed problems with the study, including the age of the participants and their lifestyle factors. New research supports the benefits of starting HRT during perimenopause or early menopause. At Arcara Access, we use safe and customized treatments to ensure the best results for you.
