Do your symptoms of imbalanced hormones scare you?Scary Facts About Hormone Imbalance Flier

Things like weight gain, depression, mood swings and exhaustion really can be scary.

At Heart and Vitality in Plano, we believe that just because you age, doesn’t mean that you have to be scared and suffer.

No one should have to live with an untreated hormone problem.
Here are 6 scary facts about hormonal imbalances

  1. Weight Gain/Low Metabolism
    Underlying hormonal imbalances make it difficult to maintain a healthy weight.
  2. Fatigue/Insomnia/Loss of Energy
    Can’t make it past mid-morning without some sort of pick-me-up? How about that mid-afternoon crash? It isn’t normal to feel sluggish, scattered or mentally foggy.
  3. Mood Swings
    Many experience mood swings and feel anxious in situations that they used to handle calmly before.
  4. Mental Fog
    Brain fog is typically characterized as an inability to focus, poor memory functioning, and difficulty learning new things.
  5. Decreased Libido
    Another noticeable symptom of hormonal imbalance is low libido, which starts with disturbed sleep. Without quality sleep our sex hormone production can diminish.
  6. Depression
    Depression and anxiety are well-known symptoms of low testosterone.

Restoring peace in your body

If you suffer from depression, insomnia, hot flashes, low libido or any other symptoms that may result from a hormonal imbalance, Dr. Jacob wants you to know that you are not alone, and there is no need for you to suffer any longer.

Cardio Screenings

A cardiovascular screening is important because they are tests performed to find disease before symptoms begin. The goal of screening is to detect disease at its earliest and most treatable stage. This way, you can treat the risk factor with lifestyle changes before it ultimately leads to the development of heart disease.

For many patients, screening results can serve as a wake-up call. When the test comes back and you see abnormal numbers, it becomes personal. Suddenly, the idea of making lifestyle changes isn’t just a recommendation in a pamphlet. It’s something that can impact your life and health.

Hormone Replacement Therapyget healthy

Studies have shown that normal testosterone levels help to keep blood sugar levels at a normal level, which could prevent diabetes, as well as maintaining cardiovascular health, which could prevent heart disease or other cardiovascular issues.

Dr. Abraham Jacob shares 5 reasons you are gaining weight in an article he wrote for Natural Awakenings Magazine.
As we age, our hormones tend change and we tend to gain more weight. scale

Hormone Imbalance & Weight Gain

  1. Estrogen & Testosterone levels decrease causing weight gain and the redistribution of fat causing an apple or pear shaped body.
  2. Increased insulin levels can reduce the body’s ability to regulate the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats, resulting in weight gain and sometimes Diabetes.
  3. Hypothyroidism causes our metabolism to slow down and can result in weight gain.
  4. Leptin, a hormone released by fat cells, triggers the brain to feel satisfied and reduces the urge to eat. The brain can become less sensitive, resulting in not feeling full during or after a meal.
  5. If your body is out of sync and suffering from a hormonal imbalance, your efforts to get healthy and fit are uphill battle that you may never defeat.

You can break the cycle of weight gain by optimizing your hormones. A simple blood test to check four major hormones levels, sex hormones, leptin, insulin, and thyroid hormone may point to the reason you are gaining weight.
