Unlike any other time in history, today's woman, is under an extreme amount of stress. Women are unable to maintain proper nutrition through food intake as our soil is depleted, the food supply is tainted with hormones and women are missing many enzymes to process our food.

With these issues and others, women are starting to experience life changes earlier and more severely than previous generations. Many women are starting into peri-menopause in their late 30's to early 40's. Peri-menopause can last for 10-15 years. In the United States, the average age of natural menopause is currently 48-52 years old and the average age of hysterectomy (causing surgical menopause) is 35 years old. Considering the fact that women are experiencing waning or absent hormones earlier, coupled with increased longevity, the average woman is living one-third to one-half of her life with a hormone imbalance.

Women are very complex and hormonal imbalances may start before a pattern or cycle has been established. PMS, infertility, peri-menopause, menopause, and post menopause are some of the hormonal imbalances seen by women today. Axium Healthcare Pharmacy's licensed professionals are here to help. Hormone balance in today's world is multi-faceted. Women have to find balance between the 3 estrogens (estrone, estradiol and estriol), as well as progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol (the stress hormone), and thyroid.

Approach to Hormone Balance

We live in an instant gratification society and many are looking for a 'quick fix' or a 'magic pill.' Many times, the first step in achieving balance is to change the way we live, and to implement changes that will allow us to recreate the balance we once enjoyed. There are many ways to achieve balance: stress reduction through exercise, prayer, meditation and relaxation training. Life approaches must include weight management, a natural diet, proper vitamins, herbs and nutrient supplementation in addition to hormone balance.
