We believe true wealth is health—and helping you overcome weight loss resistance is part of our mission to deliver proactive, patient-centered wellness.
What Is a Hormonal Evaluation?
A hormonal evaluation is a diagnostic tool that looks beyond basic health markers to assess how your endocrine system is functioning. By testing key hormones involved in metabolism and energy balance, we can identify imbalances contributing to weight loss resistance.
Common hormones evaluated include:
- Thyroid hormones (T3, T4, TSH)
- Cortisol (stress hormone)
- Insulin (blood sugar regulation)
- Estrogen and progesterone
- Testosterone
When these hormones are even slightly off, your body can store fat more easily and burn calories less efficiently.
Signs You May Need a Hormonal Evaluation
It’s common for hormonal imbalances to go unnoticed, as their early symptoms are often mistaken for everyday stress or aging. You might benefit from a hormonal evaluation if you experience:
- Difficulty losing weight despite a healthy lifestyle
- Low energy or chronic fatigue
- Persistent belly fat
- Sugar cravings or frequent hunger
- Sleep disturbances
- Mood swings or irritability
- Irregular menstrual cycles or low libido
These symptoms can appear gradually, making it hard to pinpoint the root cause without proper testing.
How Hormones Impact Weight Loss
Your body relies on hormones to regulate nearly every metabolic function. For example, thyroid hormones control how quickly you burn calories, while insulin manages how your body uses and stores glucose. When your hormones are imbalanced, it can create a perfect storm for weight gain or resistance to weight loss.
Cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone, is another common culprit. Elevated cortisol levels can lead to increased fat storage, especially around the midsection, and make it harder for your body to relax and recover.
