When it comes to your hormones, overexpression or reduction can be caused by menopause, perimenopause, and pregnancy. The development of an imbalance can be gradual, but the side effects of having irregular hormone quantities are pronounced and can be hard to deal with for some. If you are having a hard time engaging in normal activities comfortably, hormone therapy may be right for you.

What Are Hormonal Imbalance Signs?

Some of the most common signs of hormonal imbalance are sudden weight gain or loss, difficulty sleeping, and dry skin. Over time, these effects can build up and lead to changes in heart rate, increased thirst, and brittle bones. Hormones also play a big role in regulating how we feel and our thought processes. When one’s hormone balance becomes disrupted, irritability, depression, and anxiety can occur as well.
