Hormonal Imbalances

Hormonal disorders are changes in the levels or balance of hormones, the substances that regulate body functions such as metabolism, weight, mood, and reproductive cycles.

How they can appear: weight changes, tiredness, mood changes, sleep or menstrual cycle disturbances, among other signs.

Associated factors: diet, stress, stage of life, and various health conditions.

Which specialist treats them? The clinical nutritionist helps with aspects related to diet and metabolism, and can provide guidance toward tests when appropriate. If you notice sustained changes that worry you, discussing them with a professional helps you understand what is causing them.
