HORMONE RE-BALANCING

Hormone imbalances contribute to the following diseases:

• Osteoporosis
• Endometriosis
• Breast Cancer
• Endometrial Cancer
• Heart Disease
• Polycystic Ovary Disease (PCOS)

Conditions caused or aggravated by imbalanced hormones:

• Low libido
• Infertility
• Miscarriage
• PMS
• Symptoms of menopause
• Menstrual Irregularity

There are safe and effective ways to synchronise hormone levels.  Patients are often surprised at how easy it is to remedy these problems and how great they feel once they have embarked on a plan with Dr. Enid Taylor (Naturopath).

Most often it is useful to take a simple saliva test using our diagnostics laboratory and this shows us the levels of oestrogen and progesterone and their relative ratios.

Whilst hormone levels start to drop prior to menopause, progesterone levels drop nearly 100 times faster than oestrogen, leading to a condition called oestrogen dominance.  This can occur at any age also due to the use of synthetic hormones like the contraceptive pill. 

Oestrogen dominance can cause the following symptoms:

• PMS
• Bloating
• Weight gain
• Irritability
• Mood Swings
• Painful and Swollen Breasts
• Endometriosis

More comprehensive hormone tests are available using urine or blood samples if it is suspected that thyroid problems or other hormone problems are at the root of the patient’s symptoms.

Natural hormones are bio-identical – that is they are the same molecular structure as the hormones made by the body.  They behave the same way, metabolise (break down) the same way in the body and are used the same way the body uses its own hormones.  They do not cause the dangerous and/or unpleasant side effects that are associated with the synthetic hormones in pharmaceutical drug-based HRT.
