The Functional Medicine Approach to Hormonal Imbalance

The functional medicine approach to hormonal imbalances focuses on finding and fixing the root causes of the problem. Instead of just treating symptoms, it looks at things like stress, diet, sleep, gut health, and exposure to toxins. Doctors use detailed tests and personal health histories to understand what’s going on. Then they create a custom plan that might include changes in food, supplements, stress management, and better sleep habits. The goal is to help the body naturally rebalance hormones and improve overall health.  When appropriate and safe, hormonal replacement therapy is an option that can be discussed.
