Hormone Balance Matters More Than You Think

Have you ever wondered why small changes in sleep, mood, weight, or energy seem to happen out of nowhere? The culprit might be your hormones. These tiny chemical messengers influence nearly everything your body does. Keeping them in balance can help you retain good health.

 

Hormones Touch Every Part of Your Life

Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, adrenal, and insulin regulate:

• Energy and metabolism
• Weight management
• Mood stability and sleep quality
• Memory and focus

 

At Rhett Women’s Center, Dr. Edmund Rhett and Dr. David Smith look at all these hormones to pinpoint imbalances and take action early for better long-term health.

 

What Happens When They’re Out of Balance

When hormones drift from their ideal levels, you might see:

• Mood swings, anxiety, depression
• Irritability
• Fatigue and disrupted sleep
• Unexplained weight gain
• Hot flashes, cold intolerance, night sweats
• Difficulties with focus and memory
• Loss of libido
• Thinning hair, skin issues

These symptoms are signals that your body’s systems are out of sync.
