✨ Feeling Off? It Could Be Your Hormones.

If you’re tired, foggy, moody, gaining weight, or just don’t feel like yourself anymore, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy.

Hormone changes can happen gradually or suddenly—after 40, during perimenopause, post-menopause, or even after a hysterectomy. Many women in Ocala come to Essential Woman LLC saying, “I just want to feel like me again.”

That’s where Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) comes in.

💡 What Are Bioidentical Hormones?

Bioidentical hormones are hormones that are chemically identical to the ones your body naturally produces, including estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone. Unlike synthetic hormones, they are custom-compounded and individualized for your body’s needs.

🔍 Signs You Might Need BHRT

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, BHRT might be a game-changer:

😴 Fatigue that doesn’t improve with sleep
🧠 Brain fog or poor concentration
🥵 Hot flashes or night sweats
💔 Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
💪 Loss of muscle tone or increased belly fat
💡 Low libido or painful intercourse
🦴 Joint aches, hair thinning, or dry skin
💧 Vaginal dryness or urinary issues

At Essential Woman LLC, we don’t dismiss your symptoms—we investigate the root cause.

🧪 What to Expect from Your First Hormone Panel

Your first visit includes a full consultation and comprehensive hormone panel, which may test:

Estradiol (E2): Your main estrogen hormone
Progesterone: Key to mood, sleep, and uterine health
Testosterone: Vital for energy, libido, bone strength
DHEA: A precursor to estrogen/testosterone
Cortisol: Your stress hormone
Thyroid panel (TSH, Free T3, Free T4): Often overlooked
Fasting insulin, glucose, lipids, and more

We assess not only your numbers—but how you feel, your cycle history, sleep, nutrition, and lifestyle. This is not one-size-fits-all medicine. It's you-first care.
