If you’ve noticed that you’re increasingly tired, irritable, and maybe even a few extra pounds heavier of late, there’s a good chance you’re experiencing hormone imbalance. Even if you’re still in your late 20s or your 30s, and you think there’s no way you could be going through some sort of “change,” hormone changes do not discriminate based on age. In fact, most women don’t realize hormone levels start to decline in our early 30s!
The truth is that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to hormone changes, and the ideal age to begin hormone therapy varies from person to person, and is based on symptoms and patient goals.
If you’re wondering whether or not you should start using HRT, the best thing you can do is to make an appointment to speak with Dr. Brady during a one-on-one consultation so that she can help make the best recommendation based on your specific and individual needs.
Hormone Therapy
HRT is a medical approach to balancing hormones with bioidentical, all-natural treatment. This treatment method optimizes hormone levels to help women have more energy, lose weight, enjoy better sleep, and invigorate their sex drive.
Dr. Brady’s patients will begin by scheduling an initial consultation at Women’s Wellness Institute of Dallas for a full discussion of their symptoms and all-encompassing lab investigation into their hormone and vitamin levels. Then, Dr. Brady will determine the right mix of hormones for your specific needs. By finding the optimal combination, Dallas women can experience a better quality of life.
What Is The Average Age For HRT Treatment?
While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to treatment, there are consistencies and patterns related to the women who receive this hormone therapy option. Dr. Brady recommends HRT for Dallas women as young as 25 who note decreased libido, difficulty achieving orgasms or menstrual migraines. As women age, thyroid function decreases in their 30s, along with a continued decrease in testosterone. In the late 40s, estrogen levels drop off in most women. HRT can relieve typical symptoms of menopause including weight gain, hot flashes, and sleep difficulties. Women in their 60s and 70s and sometimes even 80s continue with their bioidentical pellets because they are living their best life with optimized hormones.
At What Age Should I Have My Hormone Levels Evaluated?
Being proactive is always best when it comes to hormonal imbalance. If you’re currently in your 20s, 30s or have symptoms, consider having your hormone levels evaluated in order to establish a personal baseline. This could prove helpful in the future during further evaluations when you begin showing signs of hormone imbalance. This baseline level will help your doctor ensure your hormones are properly balanced during future hormone therapy.
