Hormonal imbalance - symptoms and how to test
Overproduction or deficiency of any hormone (the body's chemical messengers) can lead to hormonal imbalance. It's an umbrella word for various diseases and disorders involving hormones. Most people go through hormone imbalances once or twice in their lives. Puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, menopause, and old age are times when hormonal abnormalities are more frequent. There is currently no reliable diagnostic test for clinicians to use when suspecting a hormonal disorder. To get started, schedule a visit with your doctor for a checkup.
