Hi, I am Jennifer McCumber. I am a patient of BodyLogicMD and I am 27 years old, and the first time I got tested for hormone imbalances and things like that is about two years ago and I was feeling kind of unstable with my mood swings. Some days I would wake up and I wasn't sure exactly what was wrong. I really didn't like myself. Some days would be completely normal; I was on birth control pills and a plethora of other things. So you know, you might say hey you know you're young there is no way you're going to have hormone imbalances like this. This is something that typically happens after menopause well, that isn't necessarily true. An example is my fiancé John McMath, he's 35 years old and he has had testosterone levels super low for a very very long time; so we recently discovered. We first went to bodylogic together around two years ago and I can't tell you how much of a difference it's made. You know, he would have very depressed days and he would want to get up and have fun with me and do amazing things and just spend time together. But, his hormones would not allow him to enjoy life to the fullest. You know, he had impotency problems he had other problems, other various problems. He was having a lot of trouble losing body fat. You know he would work out in the gym day after day and make hardly any progress. So we discovered that he had a family history of having low testosterone and quite frankly it is very common in young men who are getting into their 30's now-a-days because of just various things in the environment or what not whatever may be the cause. There are a lot of men walking around who are depressed and who have a hard time losing fat and who also have impotency problems and don't know why. And a lot of the reason why is because their testosterone levels might be low. My personal story, you know, with having the progesterone supplementation, taking DHEA and also some other things, cortisol and things like that allowed me to get my levels regulated because the birth control and other things had kind of had an unnatural affect on my natural hormones. So it allowed me to be a very steady non-emotional mood- swing-person, allowed me to really enjoy life everyday to the fullest and not have these constant negative thoughts running through my mind. Allowed me to sleep better also, helped me to help burn fat easier as well and so it has really changed our lives together as a couple and so I would really encourage you to check BodyLogic out because you know, there may be some underlying reasons, health reasons why you know you and your significant other might not get along all the time or why you just really have bad days and you really can't explain why and other things like hot flashes, sweating at night, you know, having dryness, vaginal dryness that's also a cause of hormone imbalances. So definitely check them out, this is Jennifer and check out BodyLogic they're awesome.
