About Hormonal Imbalance

Hormonal imbalance is not a single procedure but a complex condition managed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist. It involves the diagnosis and treatment of irregularities in the body's endocrine system, particularly sex hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, which regulate menstrual cycles, fertility, metabolism, and mood. Management is highly personalized, beginning with a comprehensive evaluation including symptom review, physical exam, and blood tests to pinpoint specific hormone levels. Treatment strategies are tailored to the individual and may include lifestyle modifications, prescription medications (like birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, or thyroid medication), and addressing underlying conditions such as PCOS or thyroid disorders. The goal is to restore hormonal equilibrium, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall health and quality of life.
