In charge for controlling metabolism
Linked with female reproduction
Implicated with internal circadian rhythms and sleep
A sex hormone present in both men and women
Main reproductive in women, but also present in men
A hormone that produces other hormones including testosterone and estrogen
Testosterone is the most abundant physiologically active sex hormone for both men and women, and is the principal source of estradiol in the ovaries and testes. The effect of testosterone depends on the serum levels of testosterone, in both men and women.
Testosterone plays a key role in metabolism and cardiovascular health. Loss of libido, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and fat gain are some clear symptoms of deficiency of this hormone for both men and women.
DHEA levels vary with age, maximum values are reached between 20 and 30 years. From this time serum levels decrease, leading loss of bone mineral density, atherosclerosis, immune system aging and cognitive and mood impairment.
Pregnenolone is hormone used to produce other hormones like testosterone, cortisone, progesterone, estrogen or DHEA among others. With pregnenolone optimization therapy we manage to keep all these hormones at optimum high levels, helping to rejuvenate the body from the inside.
GH levels naturally reduce from middle age onwards.
Adults with GH deficiency may have symptoms including poor bone density and osteoporosis, reduced muscle mass, fatigue, depression, poor memory and increased body fat around the waist.
This hormone plays a significant role in bone resorption in women, and menopause symptoms. Progesterone optimization therapy prevents heart disease, breast cancer, vascular endothelial inflammation and prompts the death of breast cancer cells.
Estradiol is known as the female hormone, but also important in men. At early thirties it starts declining, increasing the risk of osteoporosis, mood problems and sexual dysfunction.
Thyroid hormones are implicated in metabolism, and regulation of important body functions.
Thyroid gland dysfunctions, leads to functional, inflammatory, autoimmune, and neoplastic pathologies. Thyroid hormones' optimization permits to reduce fatigue, muscle aches, thinning hair, depression, and slowdown ageing.
