Allowing a hormonal imbalance to go untreated can lead to some serious medical conditions. Diabetes is probably the greatest health concern for Americans and left untreated leads to many different health problems and can complicate medical issues from other causes. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease can be caused by hormonal imbalances, as well. Women lose nearly 50% of their bone density after menopause as a result of low estrogen levels in the blood stream. Hormone replacement therapy can prevent further bone loss and help with new bone formation.   There are medical conditions that we may be less familiar with that are caused by hormonal imbalances. Depression and anxiety can have a connection, as well as neuropathy.   Some of the issues that come with age like osteoporosis, urinary incontinence, and loss of muscle mass can be attributed to hormonal imbalances.   Hormonal imbalances that are left undiagnosed and untreated can lead to a decreased quality of life and maybe even the shortening of life. Hormonal imbalances that go undiagnosed can create complications with other medical conditions, making recovery from those diseases much more difficult.   If you or a loved one have a hormone imbalance, come see the professionals at Infinite Wellness Hormone Specialists in Scottsdale AZ.
