Have you been feeling “off” lately? More tired than usual? Struggling to lose weight, or dealing with brain fog that just won’t lift? If so, you’re not alone. Millions of people—especially women—experience hormone imbalances without even realizing it.
Unfortunately, many are told, “It’s just part of getting older,” or, “You’ll just have to deal with it.” But here at Foundation Health & Wellness, we believe that’s simply not true.
Your body isn’t working against you. It’s speaking to you. And we’re here to help you listen.
Understanding Hormonal Imbalances: What’s Really Happening?
Hormones are the body’s chemical messengers, responsible for regulating everything from energy levels and metabolism to mood and brain function. But as we age, these messengers begin to decline—sometimes gradually, sometimes dramatically.
By the age of 30, most people experience a 3% to 10% decrease in hormone levels each year. That means by 40 or 50, your body may already be functioning with significantly lower hormone levels than it truly needs.
For women, this often results in imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, leading to a wide range of unpleasant—and often disruptive—symptoms.
Signs You May Have a Hormonal Imbalance
Do any of these sound familiar?
Fatigue or lack of energy
Weight gain (especially stubborn belly fat)
Decreased muscle mass
Hot flashes or night sweats
Difficulty sleeping
Anxiety, depression, or irritability
Brain fog or forgetfulness
Low libido or sexual dysfunction
Menstrual migraines
If you checked one or more of these symptoms, your hormones may be out of balance—but there’s good news. Relief is possible.
The Root Causes of Hormonal Imbalance
Many factors contribute to hormone imbalances, but the biggest culprit? Aging.
As hormone levels naturally decline, the body struggles to regulate metabolism, energy, and mood the way it once did. However, other factors can accelerate this imbalance, including:
Chronic stress – Elevated cortisol (the stress hormone) disrupts estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Poor diet – Processed foods, excess sugar, and inflammatory foods can throw hormones off balance.
Lack of sleep – Without proper rest, hormone production is disrupted.
Environmental toxins – Endocrine-disrupting chemicals in plastics, beauty products, and cleaning supplies mimic or interfere with hormone function.
Gut health issues – A compromised gut microbiome can lead to poor hormone metabolism.
While lifestyle adjustments can help stabilize hormones, many women find that Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is the missing piece to their health and vitality.
Solutions: How Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Can Help
Hormone imbalances aren’t just about feeling “off”—they can impact your long-term health. Research shows that low estrogen levels, for example, increase the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, and diabetes. That’s why restoring hormonal balance isn’t just about symptom relief—it’s about long-term wellness.
At Foundation Health & Wellness, we offer Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) using:
Topical Creams – Easily absorbed for gradual symptom relief
Troches (Lozenges) – Melt under the tongue for quick absorption
Evexipel® Pellets – A longer-lasting option implanted under the skin for consistent hormone delivery
Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are derived from natural plant estrogens and testosterones, making them safer and more effective at mimicking your body’s natural hormones.
A Look at Key Hormones for Women
Estrogen – Essential for heart, brain, and bone health. Low levels increase the risk of osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, and heart disease.
Progesterone – Helps regulate mood, improves sleep, and reduces hot flashes. It’s also necessary for uterine protection when using estrogen therapy.
Testosterone – Not just for men! This hormone supports muscle mass, energy, libido, and cognitive function in women, too.
