Benefits of Rebalancing Hormones

The benefits of rebalancing your hormones to combat the symptoms of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome are vast. Many women have been able to overcome their symptoms and regain overall health and wellness by balancing hormones. Women have experienced:

Thicker Scalp Hair

One of the more difficult symptoms of PCOS for women to deal with is the loss of their scalp hair, and this may be due to elevated levels of testosterone. While some testosterone in the female body is healthy, irregular amounts of testosterone can change existing testosterone into another form called dihydrotestosterone, and this form of testosterone leads to the death of hair follicles and creates hair loss.

Balancing hormone levels with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy may help women to prevent more hair loss, and it can help women to grow thicker and more lustrous hair.

Healthier Moods

Hormone imbalances can also adversely affect moods, and women with imbalanced sex hormones, such as progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone may have increased depression, anger, or anxiety. Higher levels of testosterone may lead to increased anger or depression, and lower levels of estrogen or progesterone can lead to anxiety, nervousness, irritability, or depression. But providing equilibrium may relieve the pressures of these emotional ailments.

Clear Skin

Heightened amounts of male hormones can lead to more oil production in the sebaceous glands, and women with imbalanced hormones and PCOS may suffer from acne. While testosterone may promote oil production, estrogen helps women to have clearer and more lustrous skin so balancing these hormones can help women to have clearer skin and reduce acne.

Weight Loss

Despite all efforts to eat right and exercise, many women with PCOS suffer from obesity because of latent hormonal imbalances. PCOS is indicative of high levels of testosterone, which is an anabolic steroidal hormone, and women with higher amounts may tend to keep weight on. But balancing out testosterone to estrogen and progesterone levels can help shed the excess weight, leaving you feeling fitter and more confident.

Improved Fertility

The reproductive system is regulated by hormones, and in order for women to be fertile, the female sex hormones must all be in alignment. In women with PCOS, periods and ovulation are often irregular due to imbalances. Balancing hormones to promote regular menstrual and ovulation cycles will create equilibrium and provide a safe and stable environment for fertilization purposes, which can increase the chances of conception and natural, healthy pregnancy.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Treatment Protocols

Oral Hormone Supplements:

Hormone therapy can help restore normal hormone function and health and restoring those primary functions can be as easy as taking a couple of extra supplements in your day. Oral Hormone Supplements can be in the form of pills, soft gel capsules, powders, and liquids and can be a wonderful and simple addition to your health and upkeep routines.

Transdermal Hormone Patches and Creams:

Skin is the largest organ of the human body and can absorb all manner of things it encounters, from cosmetics to the plastics from the bottles those cosmetics are stored in. Hormones can also be absorbed this way and, by placing them directly on the skin as a cream or on a worn patch, it allows those hormones to be absorbed directly into the systemic circulation system (the system that carries blood through your arteries, veins, and capillaries), which means less work for your liver. From there, it’s simply a matter of the hormones working through the system to give that healthy, natural boost and amplify your wellbeing!

Hormone Injections:

Receiving much needed hormone therapy can be as easy as a quick injection. These injections are most often administered to the upper thigh or buttocks at consistent increments, usually about once or twice a week.  Because of their quick metabolic absorption rate and frequency, they are most quickly and easily adjusted to make sure they are fitting the needs and balances of the individual.

Implanted Hormone Pellet Therapy:

The procedure for implanting hormone pellets is actually quite quick and very simple. After a local anesthesia is applied to the upper buttocks area, a small incision is made and a pellet the size of a grain of rice is inserted, then is covered with a small bandage. This procedure takes about 15 minutes and lasts for 3 to 4 months. While they are in your system, implanted pellets slowly release those helpful hormones in response to your natural stressors, keeping you steady and level for longer periods.
