Who is a candidate for hormone replacement?
Hormones are chemical messengers that control many functions in the body, including growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction. The main hormones are produced by specialized cells called endocrine glands and are released into the bloodstream to pass from one cell to another. The hormones then perform their functions in the cell or nearby cells. Sometimes, hormones are produced by cells as a way to signal other cells to function as they should. Without hormones, adolescents would not develop into adulthood, or be able to grow and function properly.
Hormone replacement, often referred to as hormone replacement therapy or HRT, is a term for a variety of medical procedures that are designed to maintain levels of hormones in the body that are considered to be out of normal range (either a surplus or deficiency). One of the most common uses of hormone replacement therapy is to administer estrogen and progesterone to women who are experiencing menopause; another common use is to supplement testosterone to men who are experiencing androgen deficiency or andropause. However, hormone replacement therapy is not only used to regulate sex hormones, but is also utilized to correct hormonal imbalances of many kinds, including hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, and Addison’s Disease.
There are many signs that indicate a hormonal balance; the following symptoms can be ameliorated with hormone replacement therapy:
• Frequent fatigue or tiredness
• Unexplained weight gain, especially around the midsection
• Poor quality of sleep, restlessness
• Decreased libido (sex drive)
• Decline in memory or recollection
• Lack of mental clarity or brain fog
• Depression or mood swings
• Muscle tension, joint pain, or headaches
