Hormones play a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions, and an imbalance can lead to undesirable symptoms for both men and women. When hormones deviate from their optimal ranges, individuals may experience symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, depression, low libido, erectile dysfunction, and loss of muscle mass. Fortunately, these issues can be effectively treated through hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
