women's health
The team at Total Care Clinics specializes in balancing hormones for menopause and thyroid disorders and provide unique evaluation and treatments for growth hormone support. All of this is done for the support of both normal, daily activities AND for elevated physical training. We address issues with fatigue by focusing on adrenal issues… which are often overlooked; we evaluate and manage cortisol and how it interacts with all other hormones; and we can evaluate neurotransmitters for mood support and work to blend the natural and medical management of anxiety and depression. Here are some specific examples of our philosophy of treatment.
-
Estrogen and Progesterone: Balance of your normal hormones is the key to Bio Identical hormone replacement. Estrogen and Progesterone is helpful in treating hot flashes, night sweats, mood disturbance, and sleep disturbance in women experiencing these menopausal symptoms. Treatment also has other beneficial effects on bone density, metabolism, and cardiovascular health.
-
Testosterone: Yes, women need testosterone too In much smaller amounts then replacement for men of course, testosterone can contribute to bone health, libido, and metabolism without causing side effects in women.
-
Pregnenolone: This hormone has been shown in studies to give beneficial treatment effects in mood, memory, and concentration. This can be added to your treatment plan if indicated for these symptoms.
-
Adrenal Fatigue and Thyroid Disorders: Fatigue is one of the most common causes for a patient to call for evaluation at our clinic. Many health issues can be traced back to sub optimal thyroid and adrenal function. This decrease in function is often related to stress or changes in other hormone function. We can evaluate and test for these issues at your appointment.
The end goal of each of these treatments and therapies is impacting the quality of life for every patient in every phase of life.
