Hormone fluctuations and weight gain
Hormones control everything from our mood and energy levels to our metabolism and appetite. When hormones are out of balance, they wreak havoc on our health and bodies in a number of ways.
One of the most common problems associated with hormone imbalance is weight gain. Patients at Infinity Medical Aesthetics & Wellness often experience the following:
-
Slow metabolism: Metabolism is the process of transforming food into energy. A slow metabolism means that your body is not able to efficiently burn calories, resulting in weight gain.
-
Increased appetite: Hormone fluctuations increase your appetite and cause you to eat more than you need. You may find yourself eating more often or feeling hungrier than usual.
-
Fatigue: Constant fatigue is a common but debilitating symptom of hormone imbalance. This can make it challenging to exercise or stick to healthy lifestyle habits at home.
-
Poor sleep: When hormones are out of balance, it can be difficult to get a good night’s sleep. This can further contribute to fatigue and make it even harder to lose weight.
It may be time to consider hormone replacement if you struggle with any of the above issues. Dr. Hill will work with you to determine if bioidentical hormone therapy is the right solution for your needs.
How does BHRT treatment work?
Bioidentical hormones are man-made from plant extracts but are identical to the hormones produced by your body. BHRT begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our professionals. Infinity Medical Aesthetics & Wellness will measure your current levels and create a custom hormone replacement treatment plan based on your needs in Kalispell, MT.
Bioidentical hormone therapy may involve inserting small pellets containing the needed hormones just under the skin. The pellets then slowly release estrogen or testosterone into the body over time. Follow-up appointments are scheduled every few months so we can monitor your health and progress.
When will I lose weight after hormone therapy?
Every patient is different, and some may see results from hormone therapy more quickly than others. Generally, most people notice an improvement in symptoms 2 – 3 weeks after starting treatment. This includes increased energy levels, improved mood, and better sleep quality. Hormone replacement makes it easier to stick to a healthy diet and exercise routine.
Your results depend on how well you stick to a healthy diet and lifestyle. Follow your custom treatment plan as given, and feel free to call our team members if you have additional questions or concerns about weight loss.
