Zits. Body hair. Mood swings. Outrageous libido. We all remember what it was like to be a teenager, prey to our hormones, a bundle of emotions and energy.
The reality is that hormones are about far more than the adolescent transition from child to adult. In fact, our hormones are essential to our health, happiness, and well-being at every age. Hormones are the chemical messengers that regulate the function of every organ system. They manage everything from blood pressure to digestion to musculoskeletal health to sex drive. Hormones can even contribute to how quickly you age, and restoring optimal hormone levels may help slow aging processes.
Hormonal Fluctuations Throughout Life
As essential as hormones are to our physiological functioning, there are myriad factors that can disrupt our hormonal cycles–many of which are normal, and some of which are not. Puberty, pregnancy, and menopause, of course, are perhaps the most obvious. There are also many others, and they affect both women and men.
As we age, for instance, our tissues may become less sensitive to hormones. Likewise, the body may begin producing less hormones or may lose its ability to metabolize hormones effectively. At the same time, an array of endocrine disorders can significantly impact hormonal functioning. Diabetes, for instance, is a blanket term for a range of disorders of the endocrine (hormonal) system which impact the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar.
