www.NutritionallyYours.nethow to tell if your hormones are out of balance

Sometimes your hormones can pull a number on you at the doctor’s office making you feel kind of misunderstood. This happens because hormones can be tricky when it comes to the ordinary blood work making it tough to detect a problem because it only screens for the levels that are present in the tissues. Just because the blood hormones show that they are present does not necessarily mean that the hormones are working properly for you. The truth is that if your hormones are not balanced, they will affect the way you feel. You may be feeling a bit upside down or have mood swings and your health, weight, appearance and your daily performances can be affected.
