Recognizing the Signs of Hormone Imbalance
Hormones play a crucial role in our overall health and well-being, influencing everything from our energy levels and mood to our sleep quality and libido. When these hormones become imbalanced, it can significantly impact our daily lives. At Family Medicine Institute, we understand the importance of hormonal balance and are proud to offer hormone imbalance treatment options to help you feel your best.
Understanding Hormone Imbalances
Hormone imbalances occur when the body produces too much or too little of a particular hormone. This can affect both men and women and can manifest in various ways. For example, in men, low testosterone can lead to fatigue, decreased libido, and loss of muscle mass. In women, estrogen imbalances can cause hot flashes, mood swings, and irregular periods.
