How can a naturopath help with hormonal balance

• Irregular menstrual cycles
• Mood swings or emotional instability
• Fatigue or low energy
• Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
• Changes in libido
• Hair loss or thinning
• Skin problems such as acne or dryness
• Sleep disruptions
• Congnitive changes like memory loss or brain fog

Firstly we need to understand what hormones are out of balance and in what direction, too high or too low. If you see an experienced practitioner in this area, they will be able to assess your symptoms and determine what might be happening with your hormones. We can also undergo testing to give us a better understanding of what might be happening, and to also pick up on imbalances that might be missed due to not having specific symptoms. This can be through blood tests, dried urine tests or saliva.

Once we can properly evaluate your hormones, we then venture to understand the underlying factors that could have caused the imbalance.

From here we use intervention like diet, lifestyle factors, nutritional supplementation and herbal medicine to help the body find natural balance again. Which can have a massive impact on your overall well being and quality of life.
