Let’s talk hormones…
So you take a home test because you can’t get your doctor to order hormone testing and then what?
Your estrogen is a little low
Your progesterone is low
Your testosterone is on the low end of normal
Now what?!! Do you replace the hormones?
Let’s dig a little deeper
Total toxin load
Lifestyle
Mitochondrial issues
Blood sugar dysregulation outside of diabetes
Liver health (your toxin regulator and if it’s overloaded then it’s like a garbage disposal that can do its job at eliminating estrogen)
Gut health 🦠 constipation
Over exercising
Cortisol dysregulation
Lack of sleep
Mineral deficiency
Genetics
These are a few of the things we can discuss at your visit. While using functional labs I am able to dive into the reason behind the hormone imbalance.
Hormone testing is often secondary to the above testing. I typically use stool analysis, toxin panels, continuous glucose monitor (where I now have access to your daily graph) myotoxins, heavy metals, minerals, and nutrient deficiencies.
