Cortisol is produced by the adrenal glands and is the body’s primary stress hormone. It enhances your brain’suse of glucose (sugar) and increases the availability of substances that repair tissues. Its release is increased in response to stress and low blood-glucose levels. It helps regulate metabolism, affects blood pressure, and servesas an anti-inflammatory. Chronically elevated levels of cortisol are an indication a body is stressed which canmake healthful eating habits difficult to maintain – the result is often stress-eating which leads to overeating and weight gain.
High cortisol levels – high cortisol levels can be caused by many underlying issues such as overactivity or cancerof the pituitary or adrenal glands, chronic stress and medication side effects. Estrogen can also increase cortisol levels in your blood.
SYMPTOMS OF HIGH CORTISOL:
Low cortisol levels – low cortisol levels mean the adrenal glands aren’t making enough cortisol. This could becaused by Addison’s disease which could be caused by cancerous cells, removal of the adrenal glands, certain genetic disorders, and certain antifungal medications.
SYMPTOMS OF LOW CORTISOL:
Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is made by the thyroid gland and is released into the blood where it is delivered to tissues in the body. It helps the body stay warm, use energy, and keeps the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs working as they should. High levels of TSH have been associated with a slow metabolism and weight gain. Measuring TSH levels can help determine if you have underactive or overactive thyroid.
High TSH levels: The pituitary gland produces more TSH when the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones. High levels are an indication that the thyroid gland is not making enough thyroid hormone (primary hypothyroidism)
SYMPTOMS OF HIGH TSH:
Low TSH levels: Low TSH levels are an indication that the thyroid is producing too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism or overactive thyroid). Low TSH may result from an abnormality in the pituitary gland. This abnormality prevents it from making enough TSH to stimulate the thyroid.
SYMPTOMS OF LOW TSH:
Testosterone is a sex hormone that regulates sex drive, muscle mass, bone mass, fat distribution and the production or both red blood cell and sperm in men (in men). It helps male features develop over time and it naturally decreases as men age. The effects of gradually lowering testosterone levels in men are known as late-onset hypogonadism. This condition affects 4 in 10 men by the age of 45. Women also produce testosterone but in much smaller amounts
Low Testosterone: Low testosterone levels is called Testosterone Deficiency (TD) or Low Testosterone (Low-T). This condition is more common in men who are overweight or diabetic. Testosterone usually decreases with age so older men tend to have lower testosterone.
SYMPTOMS OF HIGH TESTOSTERONE IN MEN:
SYMPTOMS OF LOW TESTOSTERONE IN WOMEN:
Estradiol is the strongest of the three estrogens in the body and is an important factor in the female reproductive system. In women, estradiol’s main function is to mature and then maintain the reproductive system. Estradiol levels cause the maturation and release of the egg as well as the thickening of the uterus lining to allow a fertilized egg to implant. As women age, levels of this hormone decrease significantly.
SYMPTOMS OF HIGH ESTRADIOL:
SYMPTOMS OF LOW ESTRADIOL:
