for Women
Female hormone levels fluctuate throughout the different stages of a woman's life. Almost every woman over the age of 35 experiences the natural decline in mental clarity, sex drive, strength and endurance that comes along with some other distressing changes. Optimizing your hormone balance will help to prevent these adverse symptoms and improve your overall well-being.
The most natural way of looking and feeling like your younger self
Perimenopause
It is a time in a woman's life shortly just before the occurrence of menopause. Often women notice the irregularity of periods and mood swings. However, these symptoms can be often associated with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Experiencing other common menopause symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats will help to distinguish PMS from the perimenopause.
Menopause
A woman is considered to have entered menopause if at least 12 months pass without having a menstrual cycle. During menopause, the ovaries stop producing the same level of sex steroids hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone). This decline leads to the undesired symptoms:
-
Hot flashes and night sweats
-
Loss of libido
-
Vaginal dryness
-
Insomnia
-
Fatigue
-
Emotional shifts
-
Weight fluctuations
-
Dry and saggy skin
-
Depression and/or anxiety
-
Urinary incontinence
-
Uterine Fibroids
-
Decreased bone density
-
Loss of lean muscle mass
Be Proactive
Age-related hormone imbalances can cause a variety of health concerns and frustrations. If you are experiencing any of the above listed symptoms, then you may be a good candidate for Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT). At Inspire Health, we focus on the whole woman and take a comprehensive approach to optimizing hormone balance rather then just treating its symptoms.
Your Individualized Treatment Protocol
Our functional medicine practice aims to help you reach optimal health through individualized hormone therapy which is customized to address your specific needs and goals. In addition, we frequently combine BHRT with a multi-dimensional approach that may include particular dietary changes, antioxidants, and nutritional supplements to address concerns with weight gain, inflammation, and nutrition deficiencies associated with the aging process.

Nausea
