FEMALE HORMONE HEALTH
Hormones affect everything! As women we have natural hormone fluctuations each week, month and year that form our hormonal cycles. Hormones are chemical messengers throughout the body that are not only part of our reproductive system, but also impact our metabolism, stress levels, nervous system, mood, sleep and weight. When hormones or hormone ratios become unbalanced, we can experience symptoms such as:
- PMS
- Irregular or missing periods
- Severe menstrual pain
- Excessive bleeding
- PCOS/Endometriosis
- Mood changes
- Weight gain/loss
- Acne
- Excess hair growth
- Hair loss
- Fibroids and Cysts
HOW CAN NUTRITION HELP?
By working with FigTree Nutrition & Health we can help identify and address root causes of hormonal imbalance. There are many risk factors that can implicate hormonal dysfunction, everyone will have different areas for support, by working 1:1 with a naturopathic nutritionist we can support you on your journey to optimal hormonal health.
Whilst testing is not always needed, we can offer DUTCH Testing, a comprehensive hormone test via dried urine samples that offers in-depth analysis into how your body is metabolising hormones, uncovering imbalances.
Common Questions
Naturopathic nutrition addresses imbalances in the body which contribute to sickness and disease. It differs from other nutritional therapies because it treats the whole person, not just the symptoms and offers long-term solutions to optimise health. We use whole foods, supplements and lifestyle adjustments to help bring your body into balance.
Initial consultations take around 1hr to 1.5hrs, we take detailed case histories going back to childhood to understand your health journey and help us understand where your body needs support. We then create personalised programmes tailored to your needs. Depending on the package you choose, follow up meetings and support will be set up to keep track of your progress.
Follow up appointments are generally 30-45 minutes depending on the complexity of health issues. We will discuss how the plan is going, your symptoms, any new symptoms, discuss test results. Nutrition and supplement plans will be adapted as your health journey evolves.
Initial consultations are £150, follow up sessions are £70. Packages are available and can be discussed during your free 15-minute discovery call.
No, these are at an additional cost. The NHS and your GP may be able to facilitate some testing, however private testing is also often required. Functional testing can be arranged for our patients at discounted prices, and we work within defined budgets to achieve best outcomes.
We always prefer to meet our patients in person for the initial consultation, however we are very happy to do video consultations to work around your location and schedule.
