Did you know we have great herbal protocols that can help women manage hormone issues associated with menopause? The big key during this time of life is to get a baseline assessment of your hormones. We do a saliva-based hormone panel called Comprehensive Plus which tests cortisol, DHEA, estrogen and progesterone levels. Once we see what the imbalances or deficiencies are we can tailor a plan to help the individual’s unique needs.
The foundational protocol for most menopause symptom sufferers is to get proper support for the adrenal glands. This will start to boost the body’s own production of underperforming hormones. Herbs such as licorice root, rhodiola and ashwagandha are great choices. We also use proteomorphogen supplements to target specific glands that are vital for hormone production.
These supplements don’t produce any hormones, rather they nudge the target gland or organ to work better. We use these to target not only the adrenal glands, but also the hypothalamus and pituitary in the brain and the ovaries.
These approaches are safe, can be used long-term, and work very effectively. They are a great option if you are looking for natural options for menopause and other female hormone-related issues. We have very specific, time-tested protocols. This is the way to treat hormone issues without just taking synthetic medications that won’t help the body long-term.
