Symptoms of Menopause and Perimenopause

Aging often leads to hormonal decline, and as women’s sex hormones (progesterone and estrogen) begin to deplete, they are subject to difficult side effects. Menopause and Perimenopause are known to cause many symptoms, and while they may feel different for each woman experiencing them, common symptoms include:

Seeing weight gain despite your regular exercise and healthy dieting can be a devastating symptom of hormone imbalance. Stabilizing metabolic function and boosting energy levels with Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy helps to prevent hormonal weight gain: restoring your natural, healthy balance and relieving you from stress and frustration.

When your hormones are imbalanced, you might be feeling fatigued: tired or lethargic, like a hollow shell going through the day-to-day motions. This lack of energy can be debilitating, leaving you feeling tired and unable to do the things you love. Balancing your hormones can help you get back to your passions by relieving you of your fatigue, replenishing your liveliness and youthful zest.

The inability to fall asleep, stay asleep, and even waking up before your alarm clock can be distressing, and so often comes hand-in-hand with hot flashes, mood swings, and depression, leading to worsening fatigue and plummeting energy levels. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy can restore optimal hormone levels and improve your natural sleeping patterns, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep, and helping you to wake feeling rested and restored.

If you’ve noticed more feelings of instability, irritability and uncontrollable surges of emotion, then you may be experiencing the common, yet often neglected, mood swings that are caused by hormonal imbalances. You can feel more confident that you are in control by achieving hormonal stability in your body.

It’s all too common for women to experience low libido as a side effect of the hormonal declines and imbalances brought on by menopause. If your relationship and quality of life has suffered due to the negative impact of decreasing interest or pleasure, rebalancing and recharging your dwindling hormones can help replenish your libido, restoring your radiance and enthusiasm.

Falling estrogen levels can lead to vaginal dryness, and medications such as contraceptives and antidepressants can further agitate the imbalances that are causing the problem. It’s an all too common side effect and can be embarrassing, and may cause difficulties such as painful intercourse or lowering your libido. Hormone Replacement Therapy boosts those estrogen levels and can help restore your vitality and sexual wellness.

If you have experienced the weight gain, fatigue, insomnia, hot flashes, mood swings, or any of the plethora of symptoms caused by the  hormonal fluctuations and imbalances of aging, then you may very reasonably be feeling down. By stabilizing your hormones and putting an end to those frustrating side effects, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is a safe and natural treatment for eliminating depression without the need for medication, bringing joy and light back to your life.

Have you ever found yourself suddenly needing to stand in front of your freezer because your body is radiating with the heat of a thousand burning suns? If you’ve experienced the quick and unexpected onslaught of symptoms such as sweat, blotchy skin, rapid heartbeats, and anxiety (to name a few), then you know how mortifying an unanticipated hot flash can be. Hormone therapy can boost the dropping estrogen levels that leave you feeling like a bonfire in July.

It is a natural but painful reality that aging can lead to the decline in mental elasticity and short and long term memory retention. If you have ever forgotten an important appointment or girls’ night slipped your mind, you are all too aware of that memory loss. Hormones have an important connection with the hypothalamus and disharmony can have embarrassing and devastating consequences, but when we rebalance your hormones, you can regain that confidence and know that your lifestyle is back on track.

Fibroids are growths of various sizes in the uterus and often go undetected, but can cause symptoms such as: heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure or pain, difficulty emptying your bladder, constipation, back pain, and more. Destabilized levels of estrogen and progesterone can cause these fibroids to grow and and increase your symptoms, but Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy can help you rebalance these hormones, alleviating your symptoms and diminishing these growths.

Described as abnormal tissue growth that can appear on the female reproductive organs, endometriosis can cause intensified menstrual pains, irregular bleeding, and scarring of the uterus and sexual organs. Controlling estrogen levels with Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy and specialized nutrition plans has been shown to greatly improve the symptoms of endometriosis in women.

If you have experienced the difficult and frustrating symptoms of hormone fluctuations each month, you understand the feelings of hopelessness and a loss of control. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) symptoms such as weight gain, depression, brain fog, fatigue, and more, are distressing and, yet, we are almost doomed to face them. However, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy can be used to regulate and stabilize your fluctuations, alleviating you from those symptoms and bringing you more consistency in your day-to-day.

Benefits of Bioidentical Hormones

Bioidentical hormones benefit the female body in a multitude of ways. Because of the way that these natural hormones identically match the hormones in the human body, women experience little to no side effects when undergoing Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy.

They Are Natural and Bio-Identical To Your Own Hormones

Bioidentical hormones are derived from a natural plant source and are an exact chemical match to the hormones that your body produces naturally. Bioidentical Hormones are preferable to synthetic hormones (which are produced in a lab) because your body treats them exactly the same as if they were its own. Synthetic hormones also include added compounds so that they can be patented, which means you are getting unnecessary added chemical components.

Better Sleep is Essential to Better Health

Healthy hormone levels are critical to maintaining healthy sleep cycles. When your body loses sync with its normal sleep schedule, you can get stuck in a feedback loop where losing sleep disrupts healthy hormone production, which disrupts your sleep even further. Balancing your hormones can help get you back on a healthy sleeping schedule and improve your overall wellbeing.

Reduce Cravings and Lose Weight More Easily

Low estrogen levels can make it hard to lose weight. This is because estrogen is stored in fat cells, and when your body naturally begins producing less estrogen it attempts to hold onto the fat in order to preserve as much estrogen as possible. By receiving bioidentical estrogen through BHRT, your body will recognize the new source of estrogen and allow the fat to come off.

Better Moods – Feel Your Best

Our moods are informed by a complex web of factors. Day to day our moods shift along with our personal experiences. Being in a bad mood isn’t necessarily a sign of hormone imbalance; however, experiencing erratic changes in your mood or consistently feeling sour when you would normally feel upbeat are signs that something internal is disrupting your moods. By balancing your hormones, you can improve your brain chemistry and get back to feeling like yourself again.

Raise Libido and Regain Sex Drive

Sex drive is innately linked to hormone production, especially testosterone. So, when your hormones are out of balance, your desire for sex and physical contact, in general, can wane. This can lead to further symptoms of depression, overall changes in your mood and issues in your intimate relationships. Bringing your hormones back into balance can help to reignite your libido.

Treating Menopause and Perimenopause with BHRT

While hormone replacement therapy can’t stop your body from going through the natural process of menopause or perimenopause, it can help to reduce or eliminate many of the associated symptoms. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is a particular form of hormone replacement therapy that uses, as the name suggests, bioidentical hormones.

Bioidentical hormones are hormones derived from natural sources such as soy and yams, but what makes them truly unique is that they are chemically identical to the natural hormones that your body normally produces. This means that when you give your body bioidentical hormones to supplement those that your body is not producing, it really can’t tell the difference! This is not the case with synthetic hormones. Synthetic hormones are not identical to your body’s natural hormones. Synthetic hormones are altered with unnatural chemical components so that their formulas can be patented by their manufacturers. Many women have tried synthetic hormones but later switched to bioidentical hormones because of adverse side-effects caused by the synthetic hormones.

Bioidentical Hormones Used to Treat Menopausal Symptoms

  • Estriol: It is formed in the liver and is 8% as potent as estradiol and 14% as potent as estrone. The lack of it can cause problems with dry skin and urinary tract infections.
  • Estradiol: This is the major form of estrogen produced by your ovaries, which means that the lack of it causes the majority of troublesome symptoms. It is the primary female sex hormone but it also affects many other tissues, including bone.
  • Progesterone: Your body naturally releases progesterone in the second half of your menstrual cycle. It is also responsible for helping to sustain a pregnancy. When Progesterone and estrogen are in balance in the second half of your cycle, you are less likely to experience PMS or heavy periods. In perimenopause and menopause, progesterone helps you feel calm, sleep well, and “feel yourself”.
  • Testosterone: Although primarily a male hormone, testosterone is present in smaller amounts in women. Lack of testosterone balance affects energy levels, sexual desire, muscle tone and the overall sense of well-being.
  • Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA): This hormone is produced by the brain and helps to create sex hormones in both genders. Balancing the level of DHEA in your body can help increase your energy, stamina, and resiliency, as well as help fight depression, obesity, and osteoporosis.
