Posts about hormones (particularly bioidentical hormones) that regulate many processes in our body.
The thyroid gland is one of the most important hormonal control centers in the body. Its hormones influence energy balance, metabolism, temperature regulation, the cardiovascular system, as well as concentration and memory.
Viele Frauen nehmen über Jahre hormonelle Verhütungsmittel ein. Fünf, zehn, manchmal sogar zwanzig Jahre lang.
Women with Hashimoto’s take L thyroxine daily to stabilize their thyroid function.
Something that has been taught and repeated for more than two decades does not simply disappear from medical and public awareness overnight.
Thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto's are affecting an increasing number of people and continue to raise many questions. In particular, the role of iodine and the frequent prescription of L-thyroxine are subjects of ongoing debate. We were invited to appear on the Swiss health television channel QS24 to shed some light on these issues. Alongside host Corina Klein, we explored diagnostic pathways, laboratory values and the potential impact of synthetic iodine intake on thyroid function. The conversation covered both medical correlations and practical experience from therapeutic work. The full interview was broadcast on QS24 and is available to watch on their website.
The measurement and evaluation of hormone levels is an essential component of modern medical diagnostics. Hormone expert Dr. Wilden explains various methods of hormone measurement and evaluates them based on their accuracy.
Artificial hormones (also: synthetic hormones), as used in birth control pills or hormone replacement therapies, are chemical compounds that are similar to, but not exactly like our body's own hormones. This article explains the differences between the two production methods. And we will explain why bioidentical hormones are the better alternative for you.
