Do you feel like your hormones are out of balance?
Well, you are not alone. We see hormonal imbalances in our patients everyday, particularly the hormones associated with thyroid, ovaries, adrenals and the pancreas. If your hormones are out of balance you will feel the affects in some way or another. You may experience, irritability, fatigue, low libido, weight gain, sugar cravings, even infertility. Or you could have a hormone related condition such as Endometriosis, Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, infertility, thyroid conditions or menopause.
Many women find natural medicine extremely effective for the management of hormonal conditions. With many saying they wish they had discovered it years ago. There are great strategies for helping these conditions. A must for every female to know - "that time of the month" need not be painful, heavy, miserable, debilitating or cause significant distress. It is certainly not normal, there is a reason for these symptoms, and many can be easily corrected. If you feel like your body is "out of control" every month, find out how a naturopath can help you.

A well functioning and balanced hormone network is a wonderful thing and does not operate in isolation. To holistically address conditions such as PMS, endometriosis etc., core naturopathic protocols address a range of key drivers. Yes this can help to address symptoms, but more importantly, it can get to the root cause of the problem.
This delicately balanced system is sensitively attuned to your overall health, dietary, lifestyle and environmental factors. With stress, inflammation, toxins, poor diet, toxicity, nutritional deficiencies, digestive disturbances and lack of exercise also playing a vital role. As you can see, there are many factors that can have a negative impact on your healthy hormone production and metabolism and effective treatment is so much more than simply treating a hormone. Addressing key drivers can make a tremendous difference.
At Melbourne Natural Medicine Clinic, we can provide hormone testing for men and women that accurately assesses hormone levels. Our preferred method of hormone testing involves collecting saliva samples. While blood hormone tests assess the total hormone levels found in your body, tissue hormone tests are more likely to identify the cause of your symptoms. We supply you with a non-invasive test kit that you can use from the comfort and privacy of your own home.
Hormone profile tests offer numerous benefits for men and women of all ages. Testing can assist sufferers of infertility, fatigue, low moods, erectile dysfunction, endometriosis, skin disorders, anxiety, premenstrual syndrome, and many other conditions. By identifying any imbalances, our testing can make it easier to maintain balanced hormone levels for optimal health and wellness.
