Causes and Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance
Hormonal imbalances can happen at any time and can well be the only state you have ever known. In men, it can be due to poor nutrition, stress, acute injury or illness, and inadequate exercise among others. It can also be brought on in men by andropause. Andropause happens due to the decrease in testosterone similar to when women’s ovaries stop hormone production.
Also, the endocrine system is made up of glands that are involved in maintaining a delicate balance among themselves in the body. Even a small change in a gland at one juncture can cause a lot of issues. So although you may have been told that your hormones are normal, it does not mean they are optimized.
Such hormonal imbalances and decreased testosterone levels can cause men to experience a wide number of symptoms. Sun Valley Health and Wellness can help men in overcoming them and live a happier and healthier life. Call us today for an appointment.
Hormone Replacement Therapy and Its Use
A number of wide-ranging symptoms can occur when men experience hormonal imbalance. Sun Valley Health and Wellness is here to help men overcome these symptoms and live healthier and happier lives.
Bio-Identical Hormones and Hormone Replacement
Bio-identical hormones are sourced from plants rather than animal or synthetic sources and are known to replicate the molecular structure of human hormones closely. Hormone replacement has been used for coping with aging for decades.
Using Bio-Identical Hormones for Treatment
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help men suffering from hormonal imbalances to feel like themselves. BHRT can also decrease the risk of ailments that are not linked with the reproductive symptoms that are most directly linked to imbalanced male hormones.
BHRT Pellet Therapy
If you want to overcome hormone deficiencies and hormone imbalances at any age, BHRT or Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy is the most natural way to do it. Bio-identical hormones have many advantages compared to conjugated hormones. They are delivered to patients in the form of pellets placed just under the skin in an outpatient procedure. What's more, the patients need less than a week to recover before returning to their normal lives and exercise routines.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy
