Hormone Balance for Men and Women
Why Is Hormone Balance Essential?
Hormone balance is essential for optimal health and vitality in both men and women. For most people the complicated, carefully orchestrated balance of hormones happens for decades without most of us giving this miraculous system of chemical balance a second thought. In our practice hormonal balance is one of the top three goals, along with nutritional balance and cardiovascular risk reduction that we seek to achieve for all of our patients. These goals are at the heart of regenerative medicine.
If you have had your cholesterol tested, taken a lipid-lowering drug, had a mammogram, or taken HRT with thyroid, testosterone, estrogen, melatonin, or DHEA, you have experienced anti-aging medicine. This form of medicine is based on the very early detection, prevention, and reversal of age-related disease. 90% of all adult illness is due to the degenerative processes of aging. This includes heart disease, most cancers, adult-onset diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, autoimmune disease, glaucoma, and Alzheimer’s. With early detection and appropriate intervention, most of these diseases can be prevented, cured, or have their downward course reversed.
