As women, we can experience a number of different health symptoms as we go through life. You could feel great up until you enter your 30s or 40s, or your symptoms could start as early as your teens. It’s different for every woman, but one thing that we’ve learned since Dr. Hotze opened the Hotze Health & Wellness Center in 1989 is that there are 8 key factors to evaluate for optimal women’s health.
The Importance of Hormones for Good Health
We are all created with God-given hormones that regulate every function in our body. When something happens to cause those hormone levels to decline, we feel it. All of the hormones work together like in a symphony. If one declines, it affects the others. It’s like a domino effect. The key is to figure out the pieces to the puzzle and solve the underlying cause of your symptoms.
The sex hormones, progesterone, estrogen and testosterone, all play a crucial role in women’s health. There are certain times in a woman’s life when she is more likely to experience hormone decline:
Conventional Solution
When it comes to symptoms of hormone decline, conventional doctors typically offer a drug for each symptom. They prescribe antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, sleep medications, and more. You’ve probably already experienced this. These drugs come with many negative side effects, and they do not solve the underlying cause of your symptoms.
Conventional doctors will typically offer synthetic hormone drugs such as birth control pills for PMS and various other symptoms. They prescribe Premarin, Prempro and Provera as menopause treatment. These counterfeit hormones have been shown to have numerous negative side effects, including increased risk of blood clots, stroke and heart disease, as well as breast cancer.
Natural Solution
The natural solution is to replace what is missing with bioidentical hormones that are identical to the hormones produced by your body.
Perimenopause Symptoms
Menopause Symptoms
Wendy’s Story
Wendy suffered from hormone decline and imbalance for many years. She had migraines, long, painful menstrual cycles, and suffered miscarriages. She also experienced extreme fatigue. She did not feel like herself. If this sounds like you, please watch Wendy’s story to give you hope and answers to what could be causing your symptoms.
Low thyroid function is the cause of many unwanted health symptoms. If you’ve been doing your research and discovered that you have many of its symptoms, you may finally feel some relief that you know what is going on. However, you may be disappointed when you go to your doctor and he tells you that “your blood work is normal.”
There may be more than 13 million Americans who are unaware that they have hypothyroidism. Unfortunately, most conventional doctors miss this diagnosis due to a single blood test – the TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone). This lab test fails the majority of patients because the lab range that is so wide that the majority of people fall within the normal range, even though they are hypothyroid. Don’t let this happen to you.
At the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, we believe in listening to and evaluating the patient’s symptoms. We do not rely solely on a single blood test. We treat hypothyroidism with compounded T3/T4, which contains both the inactive (T4) and active (T3) thyroid hormones.
Symptoms of Hypothyroidism
MaryAnna’s Story – 20 Year Old College Student
If you’re a teenager or college student suffering from unexplainable, extreme fatigue, weight gain and brain fog, you must watch this amazing testimonial!
When she was only 20 years old in college, MaryAnna had extreme fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and nausea and headaches everyday. She found it very difficult to study, and could barely walk from her front door to her car. She had no hope that she would ever get well, until she came to Hotze Health & Wellness Center and found out she had hypothyroidism and hormone imbalance. Now she has run in her first 10K and is about to graduate from nursing school. Plus she lost 60 lbs! Watch to learn how MaryAnna got her life back!
Sheri’s Story – A Family of Hypothyroidism
Do you struggle with low energy, poor sleep, weight gain, thinning hair, heavy menstrual cycles, brain fog, fibromyalgia or other unexplained symptoms? Did your doctor tell you that your blood tests are “within the normal range,” but you don’t feel normal? That’s what happened to Sheri. Watch as Dr. Hotze talks with Sheri about how the Hotze Health & Wellness Center helped her get her life back, and helped her family get healthy and well, too.
Are you suffering from severe fatigue? Have you been told that you have chronic fatigue syndrome? Like hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue is a common condition that is overlooked by conventional medicine.
Adrenal fatigue occurs when the adrenal glands cannot produce enough cortisol to meet the demands of your body. You begin to feel increasingly fatigued, stressed, and anxious, among many other health symptoms.
We treat adrenal fatigue using physiologic, subreplacement doses of bioidentical cortisol to support your adrenal glands. Cortisol is essential for good health since it boosts your immune system, increasing your resistance to infections and inflammation. Cortisol is also important in promoting the assimilation of both thyroid and sex hormones by the cells of your body.
Adrenal Fatigue Symptoms
Ryanne’s Story of Extreme Fatigue
Ryanne had such bad fatigue that she felt like a “zombie girl.” She was so tired all the time that she could not get off of the couch. She was missing out on life. Conventional doctors told her that her blood tests were normal and that she was fine, but her doctors did not listen to her symptoms to evaluate the root cause of her fatigue. Dr. Steven Hotze explains how hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue are a common underlying cause of extreme fatigue. Learn how bioidentical hormones can give you your energy and vitality back!
Allergies are the 6th leading cause of chronic illness in the United States. An allergy is an abnormal reaction by your immune system to normally occurring substances in the environment. Common airborne allergens include weed, grass and tree pollens, dust and dust mites, mold spores and animal danders.
LDI (Low Dose Immunotherapy)
We now offer LDA (Low Dose Allergen Immunotherapy), a breakthrough allergy treatment, at the Hotze Health & Wellness Center. LDI is a unique therapy that has much broader effects, acts faster and is longer lasting than conventional allergy treatments. Rather than the 20–40 inhalant allergens in allergy drops and shots, LDI desensitizes you to more than 300 common airborne irritants, foods and chemicals. The best news is that since we administer LDI sublingually (under the tongue), this means you can take your dose at home! No more trips to the doctor’s office for allergy shots. This treatment is beneficial and safe for both children and adults.
Common Allergy Symptoms
Heidi’s Story
Heidi couldn’t go anywhere without her inhaler. She had severe allergies and asthma and could not do normal things outside. She had sinus infections every 6 to 8 weeks. She was miserable. She also had hypothyroidism, but conventional doctors told her that her symptoms were all in her head. Watch to find out how Heidi got her life back!
Common food allergens are wheat, corn, egg, yeast, milk, soybean and coconut. Many of the symptoms of food allergies overlap with airborne allergies. Food allergies can be treated through an elimination and rotation diet. As we mentioned above, Low Dose Immunotherapy (LDI) can help desensitize you to food sensitivities.
Have you ever taken an antibiotic? Do you have cravings for carbohydrates, sugars, or anything starchy? Do you feel fatigued or sluggish? Do you have chronic yeast infections?
Candida Albicans is a fungus which lives and overgrows in our intestines causing an imbalance in the normal bacteria of the colon so that you get less normal healthy bacteria, and more yeast. It produces 180 chemical toxins capable of causing various symptoms throughout your body.
In order to get rid of yeast, it is essential that you starve and kill the yeast, and replace the normal bacteria in the colon, which is Lactobacillus Acidophilus. We recommend a yeast-free, grain-free eating program that eliminates dietary sources of yeast, sugar and carbohydrate-rich foods that provide nourishment to yeast. We have nutritionists to guide you along this yeast-free eating program.
Candida Symptoms
Hessed’s Story
Hessed took antibiotics throughout her life to fight infections. However, when antibiotics inevitably kill good bacteria, it creates an imbalance with bad bacteria – which causes more infections including yeast infections, which so many women have experienced. Find out what Hessed did to overcome yeast overgrowth and how she got her life back!
The typical American eating program consists of packaged and processed foods that are depleted of most of their vitamins and minerals. Vitamins and minerals provide the nutritional foundation for a healthy body, yet most of us do not get what we need from the foods we eat. Therefore, vitamin and mineral supplementation is essential.
Dr. Hotze’s Signature PowerPak makes taking vitamins easier than ever. Including all of your essential vitamins and minerals in daily, convenient vitamin packets, the PowerPak provides you with the most pure and high-quality nutrients that you need to fuel your body, boost your immune system and live a happy, healthy life. Physicians Preference Vitamins also carries more vitamins for women to help with specific health concerns.
What you put into your body is so important. You may have heard of the term “garbage in, garbage out.” If you eat fast food and processed foods, then you are not nourishing your body and you won’t feel well. You must give your body the nutrients it needs to thrive.
Staying active with regular exercise helps keep your body and mind in great shape. It helps you detoxify from harmful substances. It helps relieve stress and boost your mood, not to mention helping you maintain your ideal body weight.
So as you can see, there are many components of health that need to be addressed in order to solve the underlying causes of your symptoms. Often it is not just one cause – you could have symptoms of yeast overgrowth, nutrient deficiencies, symptoms of hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue, for instance. By looking at the whole person, you can achieve optimal health and wellness. Take our Symptom Checker to find out what could be going on.
We believe that you deserve a doctor and a team of professionals to coach you onto a path of health and wellness naturally, without the use of pharmaceutical drugs, so that you can enjoy a better quality of life.
Are you ready to live your best life? Can you relate to any of the symptoms listed above? We can help. Contact a wellness consultant today for a complimentary consultation at 281-698-8698. It’s time to get your energy and vitality back!
