Hormone Imbalances Explained
Hormone imbalances often occur in men and women as part of the aging process. An imbalance occurs when the body’s endocrine system is not producing the correct amount of natural hormones. Symptoms of an imbalance may range from subtle to debilitating and can be masked by medications commonly prescribed for anxiety, weight gain, depression, insomnia, and more. Having hormone levels checked regularly will lead to a more health-balanced and happy life.
