Your health assessment
Your symptoms rank in the moderate category.
The demands you place on your body are almost overwhelming.
By comparison, the support that you give yourself is moderate.
What your assessment means
Moderate symptoms mean you are in the throes of hormonal imbalance. Hormonal imbalance can affect women of any age, although it is most common in women over 35 as they enter perimenopause or transition through menopause. Depending on the woman, this can mean months or several years of symptoms. Moderate symptoms in younger women are usually predictive of a more difficult perimenopause further down the road. It’s important to listen to your body now and respond with the support it needs.
Women with moderate symptoms who do nothing to restore their hormonal balance usually progress to more frequent and severe symptoms. You can take back your health and restore your hormonal balance naturally and without drugs, alleviating your symptoms. (To learn how, see your personalized recommendations below).
Very severe demands mean that your body is experiencing a much greater burden than most women, and this burden is overwhelming your ability to balance your hormones. Some of these demands are not within your control but it’s important to minimize those that are, and you may want to talk to one of our Nurse Educators about how to do so. In the meantime, it’s essential that you give your body extra support to counter this burden. Remember, the greater the demands on you, the greater your need for support!
Moderately good support means that you are giving yourself some support, but not the level of support you need for healthy hormonal balance. The good news is there are simple, natural things you can do to provide the extra support you need. Many women are surprised to learn that taking medical-grade nutritional supplements coupled with incremental changes in diet, stress management and fitness habits can go a long way in providing the support you are missing.
How we determine your score
Based on the answers you gave us, we use a series of algorithms to place you in categories based on symptoms, demands, and supports. The algorithms were created after reviewing, comparing, and grouping thousands of health screeners at our clinic with the outcomes our patients actually experienced. By using this information, we are able to make an individual program recommendation to you that follows the same guidelines that work so well for women at the clinic.
Our assessment of your profile
Most likely you’ve been feeling “not yourself” for awhile. The good news is you can turn it around, naturally and without drugs. We recommend you do a few simple things to balance your hormones and keep them in balance. To start, you should be taking a medical-grade multivitamin designed for women every day, as well as additional calcium/magnesium and essential fatty acid supplement. You may also benefit from phytotherapy, the therapeutic use of plants and herbs, to naturally coax your body into hormonal balance.
We also recommend some basic dietary changes such as minimizing simple carbohydrates, sugar and processed foods, and increasing your consumption of vegetables, fruit, and healthy sources of fats and protein. In addition, try to find an exercise program you enjoy and consider learning some basic stress reduction techniques. The women that we see in the clinic see steady improvements in the way that they feel when they follow these suggestions. These simple steps can make a world of difference in improving your physical and emotional well-being now - and keep you from having more serious problems in the future.
If these changes seem like a lot, remember that we’re here to help! It’s okay if you don’t make every change at once. Try to focus on a few that seem most accessible to you, and as you start to feel a difference you will have the motivation to continue making improvements. We’re confident that with a little guidance and determination you can feel better than you thought possible.

Hi Carmen! I know you need the support, but I'm not the type to write daily and "rah, rah" you on. Just know I care and offer prayers up for you, JT, and Krys. Maybe later on down the road, when I don't have so many of my own issues to deal with, I can get back into the support and encouragement mode. I love you, I think you are doing great in your endeavors, I wish I had your courage and stamina. You ARE successful in what you are attempting ... as at least you have started what so many of us "think" about. Go GIRL!!! LOVE YOU ...
