Question 12

What are signs you need hormone replacement therapy?

Accepted Answer

Hormonal imbalances happen to many men and women as a result of bodily changes which come with age, such as menopause in women and andropause in men. Unfortunately, the aging process impacts our ability to produce and adequately maintain healthy hormone levels. This can lead to symptoms, such as weight gain, hair loss, low sex drive, depression, mood swings, brain fog, erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness, an inability to maintain muscle, and much more. For many people, these changes are just accepted and left untreated causing a diminished quality of life and can ultimately negatively affect lifespan.
