Are you suffering from symptoms of hormonal imbalance?
Many symptoms are associated with hormones such as; mood swings, feeling depressed or irritable, feeling upset, anxious or emotional, tiredness or trouble sleeping, bloating or cramping, breast tenderness, headaches or spotty skin.
What are the causes of hormone problems:
Several habits may be contributing to a hormone imbalance. It may be the way you eat, or sleep or how you handle stress. Your medications may be causing a disruption. Some items like household products, cosmetics, food additives and many other environmental factors may be adding to the problem. They are known as xenoestrogens.
Trouble sleeping, anxiety, mood swings, premenstrual bloating? Maybe your best
treatment is not sleeping pills, antidepressants and water pills… It seemed to make sense at first, but are you really Ambien, Prozac and Lasix deficient? Maybe you suffer from estrogen dominance! Too much estrogen and not enough progesterone can cause many of the most common symptoms that afflict millions of people everyday.
However, there are several targeted dietary changes you can easily make and several vitamins, minerals and other simple supplements that may encourage a healthy production, function and metabolism of your hormones.

The same is true when looking only at symptoms. By using both subjective (symptoms) and objective (test results) information we get a better picture of what is happening.
Hormonal changes are not simply a matter of aging. We are confronted with a
multitude assaults to our body’s natural desire to stay in balance. From the hormones in our food supply, to the chemicals in plastic bottles, pesticides and even in skin care products, hormone imbalance is the results of many un-natural factors. Stress and diet also contribute to these disruptions as well.
An increased estrogen effect (estrogen dominance) is often the cause of symptoms- especially in the pre and peri menopausal time frame.
Knowing the estrogen to progesterone and estrogen to testosterone balance (both
absolute values and the ratios) helps confirm the presence and extent of the
imbalance.
