What Is Hormonal Health?
Hormonal health refers to the proper functioning of your body’s endocrine system, which produces and regulates hormones like:
Thyroid Hormones: Control metabolism and energy.
Insulin: Regulates blood sugar levels.
Cortisol: Manages stress response.
Estrogen and Testosterone: Impact reproductive health, mood, and more.
When these hormones are imbalanced, symptoms can range from mild to severe and may affect your daily life.
Common Signs of Hormonal Imbalance
Hormonal issues can manifest in various ways. Common symptoms include:
Persistent fatigue.
Sudden weight changes (gain or loss).
Mood swings, anxiety, or depression.
Difficulty sleeping or insomnia.
Low libido or sexual dysfunction.
Irregular menstrual cycles.
Hair loss or thinning.
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s time to schedule an evaluation at Roxborough Clinic.
