What Is Hormonal Imbalance?

Hormonal imbalance occurs when the delicate signals orchestrated by your endocrine system — including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and cortisol — become disrupted. This can happen due to stress, poor nutrition, chronic inflammation, thyroid dysfunction, aging, and lifestyle factors.

Common signs include:

  • Irregular menstrual cycles, heavy periods, or PMS
  • Fatigue, mood swings, depression/anxiety
  • Sleep disturbances or insomnia
  • Unexplained weight gain or metabolic slowdown
  • Low libido in both men and women
  • Hair loss, skin changes, or brain fog

These symptoms are not isolated — they are interconnected, and addressing them requires both precision diagnostics and a holistic healing strategy.

Our Comprehensive Testing & Diagnosis

To accurately restore hormonal balance, our Hormonal Imbalance treatment center in New York uses advanced evaluation techniques that include:

Comprehensive Hormone Panels

Bloodwork, saliva, or DUTCH testing to assess estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, cortisol, DHEA and more.

Thyroid & Adrenal Evaluation

Since thyroid disorders and adrenal stress often overlap with hormone issues, we assess these systems thoroughly.

Metabolic, Nutrient & Gut Health Markers

Optimal hormone balance depends on nutrient status, metabolic efficiency and digestive health.

Individualized Analysis & Root Cause Mapping

We go beyond “normal range” labs — we interpret your results in context with your symptoms, history, and lifestyle factors.

Our Whole-Person Integrative Care Model

Patients Medical blends traditional medical diagnostics with functional medicine, targeted supplementation, hormone restoration strategies, nutrition, and lifestyle medicine.

Hormonal therapy is never isolated—we aim to correct the underlying mechanisms affecting estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and adrenal function.

How We Diagnose Hormonal Imbalances

Our doctors perform a comprehensive evaluation that may include:

  • Detailed health + menstrual/sexual health history
  • Thyroid panel (TSH, T3, T4, antibodies)
  • Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, SHBG levels
  • DHEA, cortisol, and adrenal stress testing
  • DUTCH or saliva hormone test (if appropriate)
  • Metabolic markers and nutrient deficiencies
  • Insulin and blood sugar markers
  • Gut health and inflammation assessment
  • Liver detoxification capacity (critical for hormone metabolism)
  • This helps identify the root cause—not just the symptom.

Hormonal Imbalance Treatment in New York City

Who Needs Hormonal Imbalance Care?

Hormonal imbalances occur when glands like thyroid, adrenals, ovaries, or testes produce too much or too little hormone, disrupting metabolism, mood, sleep, weight, fertility, and energy levels. At Patients Medical, we detect root causes—stress, gut, nutrients, toxins—via advanced testing, and restore balance through targeted nutrition, stress resilience, gland support, and individualized bioidentical hormone therapy.

You may need treatment if you experience:

  • Chronic fatigue, weight changes, insomnia, brain fog
  • Menstrual symptoms, irregular cycles, PCOS, low libido
  • Menopausal or andropausal symptoms, hot flashes
  • Thyroid issues (hypo/hyper), adrenal burnout
  • Mood swings, anxiety, depression

Diagnostic Testing We Use

Hemoglobin A1C, fasting insulin, and glucose

Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)

C-peptide levels to measure insulin production

Inflammatory markers (CRP, homocysteine)

Gut health panels (stool microbiome, leaky gut testing)

Heavy metal testing

Hormone panels (cortisol, estrogen, testosterone, thyroid)

Genetic markers and MTHFR status

Personalized Treatment Strategies

Our approach blends natural therapies with medically supervised care — customized for every individual:

Natural & Functional Interventions

  • Nutrition plans to support hormonal metabolism and liver detox
  • Stress regulation protocols and sleep optimization
  • Exercise and lifestyle medicine tailored to your needs
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

Hormone Imbalance Natural Supplements

We use evidence-based natural supplements to support hormone regulation, such as:

 

  • Adaptogens (ashwagandha, maca, rhodiola) — support adrenal health and stress resilience
  • Omega-3 fatty acids — reduce inflammation and support hormone production
  • Herbal modulators (vitex, DIM) — help estrogen and progesterone balance
  • Minerals and cofactors (magnesium, zinc, B-vitamins, vitamin D) — essential for hormone synthesis and metabolism

 

These supplements are chosen based on your lab results and clinical picture, not generic formulas.

Hormone Balance Supplements for Men

Men often benefit from targeted support that enhances testosterone production and overall vitality, including:

 

  • Nutrients that support testosterone synthesis
  • Lifestyle and metabolic interventions to reduce estrogen dominance
  • Stress adaptation herbs to balance cortisol and improve energy
  • Metabolic support for healthy weight management

 

This combination can improve libido, muscle mass, mood stability and energy levels.

Mind–Body & Supplement Support

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement (When Appropriate)

When clinically necessary, we offer bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) using plant-derived hormones that mimic your body’s natural chemistry — under physician supervision. This can provide relief from severe imbalance symptoms with fewer side effects compared to synthetic options.

Integrative Treatment Pathways

Comprehensive Functional Testing & Root Cause Evaluation

We begin with lab panels—sex hormones, thyroid, cortisol, insulin, metabolic and gut markers—as well as lifestyle and environmental assessments. Identifying root triggers such as inflammation, nutrient gaps, stress, or microbiome imbalances allows us to treat hormones with precision rather than guesswork—leading to more sustainable, personalized restoration.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

 When appropriate, we prescribe customized bioidentical estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, and adrenal support. These closely mimic your body’s hormones, alleviating fatigue, mood imbalance, low libido, weight changes, and sleep disruptions. Ongoing symptom tracking and lab monitoring ensure safe, effective hormone restoration tailored to your physiology.

Lifestyle, Nutrition & Gut-Brain Support

Balanced hormones require stable lifestyle habits. We design anti-inflammatory, blood sugar–balancing meal plans, prescribe detoxifying nutrition, and support gut health. Diet, sleep hygiene, movement, and toxin reduction are intertwined with nutrient cofactors like B-vitamins, magnesium, and omega-3s—empowering your endocrine system and preventing recurrence

Mind–Body & Supplement Support

Mind-Body Balance & Adrenal Resilience

 Chronic stress derails hormones. Our model includes CBT, acupuncture, meditation, and pelvic/somatic therapies to reduce cortisol, regulate nervous system responses, and fortify endocrine regulation. Supplement regimens using adaptogens like ashwagandha and rhodiola support adrenal recovery, improve mood, reduce anxiety, and enhance hormone receptor function.
