Objectives:

After completion of this training, participants will be able to:

  • List overall factors that improve and degrade hormone health in both men and women.
  • Explain the relationship between progesterone and estrogen; how to calculate the P:E ratio; and detail methods on how to balance hormones.
  • Recognize the various hormone-related conditions and how to mitigate symptoms to ensure the best possible outcomes.
  • Identify the critical role of diet, nutrition, supplements and lifestyle, in regards to hormone health of men and women.

Overview:

You’ll get a deep dive into hormone health in this multi-session live webinar series.

We’ll cover women’s health throughout the life cycle and of course, we’ll explore more male hormone imbalances as well.

These sections will detail hormone function, metabolism, the various conditions related to male and female hormonal imbalances, and factors that promote and inhibit hormone balance, including diet, lifestyle, supplements, medications, genomic influences, and environment.

What’s Covered In This Course:

  • Basic physiology of the female body and associated hormones at different phases of the human lifecycle.
  • The important functions of progesterone and estrogen and their relationship to each other.
  • Estrogen dominant conditions: PMS, menorrhagia, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, fibrocystic breasts, and ovarian cysts.
  • Hormone-related conditions in men and/or women: infertility, yeast infections, urinary tract infections, pregnancy, PCOS, and bone health concerns.
  • The genomic influence on hormone metabolism and the vital role of toxic burden, stress, and nutritional status
  • The role of diet, nutrition, OCAs, and HRT in modulating estrogen during reproductive and peri/postmenopausal years.
  • Men’s health, types of hormone testing, and using genomics to improve hormone health.
  • Supportive recommendation including diet, lifestyle, herbal and dietary supplemental support, and to know when to refer for further evaluation and support.

Practice Exercises:

  • List 8 factors that lower progesterone levels and 8 factors that increase estrogen levels.
  • Detail the relationship between stress and hormone production.
  • Separately list 5 interventions and 5 supplements that promote healthy estrogen metabolism during the reproductive years. How does this change for peri/postmenopausal women?
  • Detail the relationship of testosterone and insulin resistance and list 4 factors that promote estradiol aromatization in men.
  • List 4 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP’s) that impact hormone metabolism.
