Hormone testing
Hormone levels are important. In younger years, this has to do with reproductive health and fertility. But as you age, hormone changes lead to changes in:
- Muscle mass, strength, and endurance
- Brain health- depression, dementia, energy levels, mood
- Hair changes
- Bone density
- Heart health (estrogen is protective)
- Skin changes
- Sexuality- desire, discomfort
As with all things we advocate, testing is important to find out your baseline. This helps adjust treatment, whether you are doing hormone balancing and replacement by pelleting (it is tailored individually to your lab results), patches, creams, or other methods.
TEST OPTIONS
Hormones are important. For younger patients, fertility is the focus. For aging patients, perimenopause, menopause, and men over 40 see hormonal changes. These hormone changes affect many body systems, and correcting levels of hormones give great benefits.
