{"product_id":"female-hormone-profile-extensive-1006","title":"Female Hormone Profile Extensive","description":"\u003cp\u003eHormones are crucial to a woman’s reproductive health. The main hormones affecting the menstrual cycle and fertility are produced by glands in the brain and by the ovaries. Those hormones regulate menstruation, fertility and sex drive (libido) – any one of which can be adversely affected if the production of these hormones goes out of balance. As most women approach mid-life, hormonal changes gradually cause reproductive organs to shut down eventually leading to menopause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHormones are tremendously complex and during the pre-menopausal years, imbalanced hormones can pose challenges with mood stabilisation, conception and regulation of your menstrual cycle. The female hormone profile extensive expands on the basic female hormone profiles in that it investigates androstenedione. Androstenedione is a steroid hormone that has weak, androgenic actions on the body itself. However, acts as a stepping stone in the manufacture of testosterone and oestrogen within the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHormone-related symptoms can occur from the age of when a menstrual cycle commences. Generally, hormonal issues is usually not a clear-cut case of one hormone level being abnormal, or even one hormone system. In fact, because of the role that hormones play as chemical messengers to wake up the genome in specific target tissues throughout the body, it makes sense that all hormone systems work in concert with each other to maintain a state of balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalivary hormone measurements is the most accurate analyses of estrogens, progesterone, and testosterone in determining the need for hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Hormone levels may be normal, indicating that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is not needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest
