- Are you feeling sluggish?

All of these are symptoms of a possible hormone imbalance. And the good news is that it is easy to get checked at our Colorado Springs hormone replacement therapy clinic.
Hormones are chemical messengers secreted into the blood from glands and organs and carried to other organs throughout the body.The glands and organs that secrete hormones make up what is called the endocrine system. These glands and organs include:
- Thymus Gland
- Adrenal Gland
- Pineal Gland
- Pituitary Gland
- Thyroid
- Pancreas
- Testes
- Ovaries
You can get checked for hormone imbalances at our Colorado Springs hormone replacement therapy facility using various bodily fluids to include saliva, blood and urine.
If you are male, then you have probably heard of a “Low T Center,” but what is nice about Thrive Health Systems is that we only use bioidentical hormones rather than synthetic hormones or medications, and we also have other services that, when used in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy, can lessen the amount used and the longevity of treatment. And example of this is our personal training facility, and our doctors that practice functional medicine to help balance blood chemistry. A comprehensive approach finds the true cause(s) of your symptoms.
Healthline.com published an intriguing article on the differences between synthetic hormones and bioidentical hormones. It says,”Biochemically, your body recognizes the chemical structure of bioidentical hormones as identical to the hormones your ovaries produce. However, it does not recognize synthetic hormones as identically the same. This difference is why, according to many healthcare professionals, that synthetic hormones produce so many unhealthy side effects.”
To schedule a simple test to see if your hormones are out of balance and causing you undue trouble, call our Colorado Springs hormone replacement therapy clinic at 719.476.0873.
