Functional Medicine Approach to Women's Health

​

Common areas addressed in functional medicine for women's health:

​

• Hormonal imbalances: Functional medicine assesses hormone levels, such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, and addresses imbalances that can contribute to various symptoms.

• Reproductive health: Functional medicine may address issues such as menstrual irregularities, fertility challenges, and menopause symptoms.

• Thyroid dysfunction: Functional medicine may evaluate thyroid hormone levels and assess the underlying causes of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.

• Adrenal stress: Functional medicine may assess whether the adrenal glands are functioning optimally, as they play a crucial role in stress response and hormone production.

• Gut health: The gut microbiome plays a significant role in overall health, including women's health. Functional medicine may address gut health issues to support hormonal balance and overall well-being.
