Hormones Q & A

What are hormones?

Your hormones are chemical messengers that help govern many bodily processes and functions, including your metabolism, heartbeat, mood, hunger levels, and libido.

When your hormones are out of balance, you may feel tired, moody, gain fat, lose interest in sex, and experience sleep disturbances.

Hormones that are possibly responsible for these symptoms include:

Estrogen
Progesterone
Testosterone
DHEA

Customized hormone therapy offered at Southern Secrets Med Spa can bring your hormone levels back up to normal, making you feel and look better.

Weight gain
Loss of lean body mass
