Signs Your Hormones May Be Out of Balance — and What to Do About It

Feeling off but can’t explain why? Your hormones might be the missing piece.

Hormones affect nearly every aspect of how your body functions — from sleep and energy to weight, mood, memory and even skin. When they’re out of balance, the symptoms can feel overwhelming, confusing, or easy to dismiss as “just stress” or “getting older.”

But the truth is: hormonal imbalance is common, treatable, and worth investigating.

COMMON SIGNS OF HORMONAL IMBALANCE

Hormonal issues don’t always scream — sometimes, they whisper. Whether you’re male or female, here are some of the most frequent signs that your hormones may need support:

In Women:

  • Fatigue, especially in the afternoon
  • Irregular or painful periods
  • Mood swings or anxiety
  • Weight gain (especially around the midsection)
  • Hair thinning or hair loss
  • Low libido
  • Brain fog or forgetfulness
  • Acne, melasma, or dry skin
  • Vaginal dryness or discomfort

In Men:

  • Decreased energy and stamina
  • Loss of muscle mass or strength
  • Erectile dysfunction and/or low libido
  • Mood changes or irritability
  • Poor recovery after exercise
  • Belly fat that’s hard to lose
  • Difficulty focusing

If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone — and you’re not imagining things.

WHAT CAUSES HORMONAL IMBALANCES?

Hormonal shifts can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  • Chronic stress (hello, cortisol overload)
  • Poor sleep and disrupted circadian rhythm
  • Nutrient deficiencies
  • Overtraining and/or under-eating
  • Thyroid dysfunction
  • Aging and natural life transitions (perimenopause, andropause)
  • Environmental toxin exposure

At Recover. Restore. Revive., we look at all of these root causes — not just symptoms.

How We Test for Hormonal Imbalance

We don’t guess — we test.

Our concierge wellness model includes advanced lab panels that go beyond basic bloodwork to assess:

  • Sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA)
  • Thyroid health (TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3)
  • Adrenal function and cortisol rhythms
  • Inflammation and nutrient markers

You’ll receive a custom report and a personalized hormone plan tailored to your goals — whether that means balancing mood, supporting metabolism, restoring libido, or enhancing longevity.

  • Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT)
