Benefits of Estrogen:

Estrogen therapy benefits include protection against heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's disease, and memory disorders. Estrogen protects against vaginal atrophy urinary incontinence, urinary tract infections, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Estrogen helps to prevent menopausal hot flashes and temperature dysregulation. Estrogen may also improve static balance and prevent neurodegeneration. Estrogen decreases lipids and increases bone density. It also improves skin quality/texture.

Benefits of Progesterone:

Progesterone will help with improvement in quality of sleep, brain fog and short-term memory. Progesterone also reduces symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), headaches, breast cancer, and osteoporosis. This hormone can moderate the side effects of excess estrogen, reduce bloating, headaches, bleeding and fibroids. Progesterone stabilizes and protects the uterine lining from developing abnormal cells that may progress to cancerous cells thus protecting from uterine and breast carcinoma.

Benefits of Testosterone:

Both men and women require adequate levels of testosterone for optimal physical and mental health, and for the prevention of chronic illnesses, e.g. Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and heart attacks, which are associated with low testosterone levels. Additionally, testosterone has been utilized for the treatment of menstrual headaches and migraines, as well as providing relief of vaginal dryness, urinary frequency and urgency, and incontinence. In both men and women, testosterone has been shown to also relieve depression and anxiety, improve concentration and memory, increase energy and an overall sense of well-being, and to treat testosterone deficiencies caused by the birth control pill.

Benefits of DHEA:

DHEA is a major androgen in the serum, for both men and women. It is a precursor of testosterone and estrogen. DHEA reduces cardiovascular risk by decreasing visceral fat. DHEA also stimulates the immune system, improves mood, restores sexual vitality and decreases cholesterol for beneficial results.

Benefits of Thyroid Hormone:

The thyroid impacts every major system in your body. It is important to have the right hormone levels for your body's needs. The function of the thyroid gland is to take iodine, found in many foods, and convert it into thyroid hormones: thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3). These thyroid hormones essentially control metabolism. Every cell in the body depends upon thyroid hormones for regulation of their metabolism.
