These symptoms are
also connected to your stress levels, nutrition, lack of
exercise and the environmental toxins your body is exposed
to on a daily basis.
This
physician-supervised program uses only bio-identical
hormones, hormones which are identical to the body’s own
chemistry, integrated with nutrition and fitness. Natural
Wellness Center physicians provide a natural treatment
that helps women suffering from the symptoms of menopause
and live the best life possible.
Exams and Tests for Women
To determine your hormonal needs, Natural Wellness Center
physicians will thoroughly evaluate your symptoms and
order saliva testing and/or blood labs to determine what
your unique hormonal needs are. After starting therapy we
will always reevaluate your hormone levels to insure that
they are maintained within optimum balance.
A few of the initial
hormones we test for generally include:
Your
physician may also recommend cholesterol testing, cardiac
risk factors, and metabolic profiles, bone density testing
as well as body compositions for your body fat percent and
lean body mass. This will help them set your base line and
gauge your progress in your treatment. They also recommend
that women get yearly PAP smears and mammograms as part of
their preventative healthcare regimen.
Treating Hormonal Imbalance
In treating a woman with a hormonal imbalance, Natural
Wellness Center physicians replace exactly what is
missing, or low, with the body’s appropriate bio-identical
hormones. They prescribe the hormones in the fashion that
match each woman’s prior hormonal needs. These physicians
follow up with every patient closely, evaluating symptoms
and using laboratory tests to determine each patient’s
customized dose. Natural Wellness Center physicians order
only the finest and most reputable compounding pharmacies
to obtain the exact combination of hormones required to
achieve hormonal balance.
Menopause
Menopause is the time in a woman’s life when the ovarian
production of estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone
declines. The average age of menopause onset is 51, plus
or minus several years. Medically it is defined as the
time in which a woman ceases to menstruate for a period of
12 months. While this properly describes the event, the
process can begin up to 10 years earlier (called
perimenopause).
Long
before a woman’s periods have stopped, she has already
noticed a change. Her periods become shorter in duration
and she notices a loss of energy, a decrease in strength,
and a loss of libido. Her mood is altered and she may be
more agitated, depressed, apathetic and forgetful. These
are all symptoms of menopause, the loss of estrogens,
progesterone and testosterone.
Perimenopause
Perimenopause is the period of time before, and for a year
after, the final menstrual period during which ovarian
hormonal patterns change. The average age at which
irregular cycles develop is approximately age 47 but in
many cases can start as early as 35 years old. Like
menopause, this is a normal part of a woman’s life cycle.
Women can experience many of the same signs of menopause
and can also find relief with bio-identical hormone
therapy.
Treating Menopause and Perimenopause
Symptoms
There is no way to stop menopause, it’s a natural cycle of
life. Every woman will go through menopause at some point
in her life. However, the difference is how you treat it.
Natural bioidentical hormone therapy will help you
overcome the symptoms and effects that occur with this
stage of life.
Itchy, Bitchy, Sweaty, Sleepy, Bloated, Forgetful, and
All-Dried up. In her bestseller, “The Sexy Years”, Suzanne
Somers explains how one by one, these symptomatic dwarfs
took over her life and how bio-identical hormone therapy
made them go away.
There
are many short-term benefits to natural bio-identical
hormonal therapy. The seven dwarfs one by one begin to
leave. The hot flashes, the night sweats, the
irritability, and the loss of energy and strength begin to
subside. Your libido is restored and you begin to feel
more in control of your emotions.
