Our bodies are in a constant “battle” for hormone control.
Between the adrenal glands pumping out cortisol and the thyroid gland
steering our metabolism, it’s no surprise that these substances
impact our energy and our ability to lose weight. Our medical weight loss
providers have a complete understanding of the correlation between hormones
and weight gain, and we use our resources to help each patient overcome
obstacles on their journey toward optimal weight and health.
Which hormones affect weight?
A few of the most common hormones preventing weight loss include
cortisol, insulin, thyroidism, estrogen, and
testosterone. Even if a patient strictly follows their diet and exercise regimen, these
troublemakers may keep caloric levels unstable and therefore impact weight loss.
What is hormone therapy?
Hormone therapy treatment in which a trained medical professional assesses
hormone imbalances in their patient through blood tests and other means.
Upon understanding the patients imbalance(s), they will prescribe and
administer hormones either by injection, on the skin, or under the tongue.
Men and women around the world rely on hormone therapy to treat a variety
of symptoms including weight gain.
It’s important to work with a medical professional with any type
of hormone therapy, since it requires careful monitoring. Your Utah medical weight loss provider
will also work with you to achieve lifestyle changes that also assist
with hormone redistribution. Things like quality sleep, eating enough
protein and healthy fat, and managing stress are also proven to rebalance hormones.
