BeBalanced Hormone Weight Loss Center
Q: What is natural hormone balancing?
Natural hormone balancing is a unique methodology that the founder of BeBalanced developed to help women live a higher quality of life by balancing their sex and stress hormones without synthetic HRT (hormone replacement therapy) or BHRT (biochemical hormone replacement therapy).
Natural hormone balancing is fast, safe and simple and works by getting the sex hormone cortisol back in balance along with lowering the hormone insulin which is meant to control blood sugar. By balancing these two hormones it allows the sex hormones to more easily come back into balance.
Then by adding a little bit of natural plant based progesterone the body can easily balance out estrogen and progesterone aiding fast weight loss while improving mood, sleep, energy, and thyroid function as well as PMS/menopausal symptoms.
Q: What causes women’s hormones to become out of balance?
Stress is the main culprit. Stress increases the need for the hormone cortisol, which is needed to buffer us from stress. When there is a chronic demand for cortisol, the body cannot keep up. The body then ” steals” a hormone called progesterone and converts it to the lacking cortisol. When this happens it leaves women with lower progesterone and dominant in the opposing hormone called estrogen. This is a major problem for women and it is called “estrogen dominance”.
The sad fact is that most women in America have “estrogen dominance”. This is simply due to the stress of living in a modern society. Stress is not just mental and emotional such as financial problems, family issues, job pressure and problem solving. Stress can also be physical, such as lack of sleep, physical pain/body misalignments, low level infections in the body, intense exercise, extreme temperatures and electromagnetic fields coming from cell phones / computers.
Everyone, no matter how good their emotional state, is under excess and chronic stress in our society.
Q: How does “estrogen dominance” relate to weight?
Progesterone is not just simply used for progestation during pregnancy but it is a woman’s best friend. When a woman is low in progesterone and dominant in estrogen, she lacks an important hormone that is essential for stabilizing blood sugar, decreasing appetite, increasing fat burning ability and is a natural diuretic.
Therefore, progesterone allows women to burn fat efficiently.
When estrogen is dominant the extra estrogen stimulates the pancreas to produce insulin no matter what the woman consumes. When insulin is high in the bloodstream a woman cannot burn fat or go into ketosis ( a fat burning state). This scenario will cause blood sugar fluctuations, increasing appetite and fat storing and making it almost impossible for a woman lose weight.

What are some of the other benefits of naturally balancing your hormones if you don’t need to lose weight?
Premenopausal women and girls will have more regulated, symptom-free menstrual cycles, have more energy, sleep deeper, a steady mood with less chances of anxiety and depression and be free from typical PMS and menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats, brain fog, fatigue, vaginal dryness, low libido etc.
Q: How does increasing progesterone and balancing out “estrogen dominance” aid in other issues women deal with?
FLUID RETENTION: Progesterone is a natural diuretic so it will aid with migraines, ankle swelling, and excess fluid around the abdomen and high blood pressure.
MOOD: Progesterone increases the neurochemical GABA in the brain which naturally relaxes us, aiding in deep restorative sleep as well as working as an anti-anxiety which will then automatically decrease depression.
SLEEP: Progesterone increases our ability to relax and fall asleep and the ability to stabilize blood sugar so there is no crash in the middle of the night causing cortisol to rise, waking a woman up. This is the main reason women wake up at night to go to the bathroom etc. and they often experience a hot flash or night sweat in the process.
FEMALE CONDITIONS: Progesterone also inhibits the excess growth of tissue minimizing heavy periods, endometriosis, fibroids, fibrocystic breasts and even estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.
SKIN/SEX LIFE: Progesterone naturally regulates other hormones such as estrogen and testosterone aiding skin ( fighting acne and rosacea) and libido/sexual response.
DISEASE: Progesterone stabilizes blood sugar, decreasing the chances of insulin resistance and diabetes. It also has a negative impact on growing cancers.
PMS: Progesterone also aids in PMS symptoms like irritability, cravings, headaches, cramps and heavy periods.
MENOPAUSE: Also, all symptoms of peri and post menopause occur due to a dramatic fall in progesterone. Estrogen only falls slightly and the body has the ability to make more easily. Progesterone falling causes hot flashes and night sweats, lack of libido, vaginal dryness etc. and progesterone aids all these conditions.
Q: How can natural hormone balancing help women with thyroid problems?
Raising progesterone supports the thyroid while “estrogen dominance” fights the thyroid, making it less efficient. By increasing progesterone and decreasing cortisol and insulin, the thyroid becomes more efficient and often less medication is needed. So whether a client is dealing with Graves, Hashimotos, hyper or hypo thyroid, balancing hormone yields fantastic results. BeBalanced also works with area doctors as they slowly lower medication as a client’s thyroid begins to become more efficient.

Q: Does BeBalanced do hormone testing?
No, the good news is that everything is symptom-based and the client simply takes a symptom based questionnaire to determine if there is an imbalance.
Because the method BeBalanced uses to get a woman balanced is not medicine, there is no chance of overdosing. The BeBalanced way to promote balance is always using diet and lifestyle tips as well as high quality, hormone balancing supplements. The supplements are either in the form of a natural plant-based cream which is transdermal (any excess is eliminated in the urine within 18 to 24 hours) or a homeopathic form.
Saliva testing is the only accurate way to test sex hormones and often doctors will use blood tests which show the free hormones as well as the “bound” hormones that are not currently available. This makes blood testing a fairly inaccurate way to test what hormones are available to the cells at any given point.
