Health, Bioidentical Hormones and Mother's Day News
Posted on: Monday, 21 April 2008, 06:00 CDT
What do bioidentical hormones and Mother's Day have in common? The official kick-off for the ninth annual National Women's Health Week (May 11-17). The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health, is asking "women across the country to get healthy by taking action." This includes checking hormonal balance and symptoms associated with menopause, adrenal fatigue and perimenopause.
BodyLogicMD, a national network of highly trained, anti-aging physicians offering bioidentical hormone therapy integrated with fitness and nutrition programs, is working with the Human Services' Office on Women's Health to educate women about living healthier, including:
1. Visiting a BodyLogicMD physician for hormone evaluations
2. Incorporating a physical plan
3. Making healthy food choices
4. Lifestyle changes like quitting smoking, drinking, eliminating unnecessary medications
"National Women's Health Week gives us a good excuse to remind our wives, mothers, grandmothers, daughters, sisters, aunts and girlfriends about the things they can do to stay healthy -- and we all benefit from that," says BodyLogicMD Chief Medical Officer, Alicia Stanton, MD.
For women facing perimenopause and menopause, health and fitness plans that include bioidentical hormone therapy not only can help them feel better, but also provide anti-aging benefits, such as:
Reduction of hot flashes, night sweats
Greater success at losing weight and getting in shape
Decreased anxiety, depression
Stronger libido
Better mental focus
Firmer, younger looking skin
Increased bone density
More energy
"Moms tend to put others first, so it's up to their families to remind them to take these steps toward making healthy choices a priority," adds Dr. Stanton. "A combination of bioidentical hormone therapy, preventive measures and a healthy lifestyle can help make the challenges of motherhood easier."
