Hormone Health Hub: Expert Insights on Testing, Balance & Better Living — menopause night sweats

Menopause symptoms aren’t “just aging.” Discover the real hormonal causes behind hot flashes, mood swings, sleep issues, and dryness — and how hormone testing can help you regain control.

A low ratio points to oestrogen dominance; a high ratio to progesterone dominance — each requiring a different therapeutic response. This article explains how the ratio is calculated, when it is clinically relevant, and how a real-world case illustrates its practical value.
