Hormone Therapy for Women in San Juan Capistrano

To help stabilize blood sugar, focus on a balanced diet with regular meals that include protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs. To support hormone balance, we reduce high-glycemic foods, refined sugars, and simple carbs, which can cause insulin spikes.

Essential fatty acids, like omega-3s and omega-6s, support hormone production. Foods such as fish, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and walnuts aid synthesis and reduce inflammation.

Adding foods with phytoestrogens, such as flaxseeds, soy, and legumes, can regulate estrogen levels. Broccoli, kale, and cauliflower assist with estrogen metabolism.

A healthy gut is vital for hormone regulation. Dysbiosis, an imbalance of gut bacteria, can lead to issues like estrogen dominance. Fiber, fermented foods, and probiotics in the diet help maintain a balanced gut, essential for hormone health.

Estrogen and other hormones are detoxified in the liver. Supporting liver function with antioxidants, sulfur-containing vegetables (like garlic and cruciferous veggies), and proper hydration aids in hormone breakdown. Avoiding toxins, alcohol, and processed foods reduces liver load.

Long-term stress elevates cortisol, which can interfere with other hormones like estrogen and progesterone. Stress-reducing habits, including mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and enough sleep, are important.

Regularly engaging in moderate exercise helps maintain hormone balance by reducing stress, improving insulin sensitivity, and supporting weight management. However, over-exercising can lead to hormonal issues, particularly in women, so intensity and frequency should be personalized.

Hormone levels should be routinely monitored with blood tests, and adjustments to diet and lifestyle should be made based on individual responses. Continuous assessment guarantees that the approach stays effective as the body adapts.
