Recently, researchers at the National Institute of Aging discovered
that by maintaining optimal levels of estrogen, postmenopausal women
may be able to protect themselves from memory decline associated
with aging.1 Adequate levels of estrogen, it appears, protect regions
of the brain which are most vulnerable to neuron loss.
The Menopause
Profile is a salivary analysis of bioavailable estrogen, progesterone,
and testosterone that can be used to evaluate whether levels are
optimal for supporting memory function, bone strength, and cardiovascular
status.
The
Women's Hormonal Health Assessment provides a focused
overview of hormonal balance in both pre- and post-menopausal women,
using a single serum sample to evaluate dynamics of sex steroid
metabolism that can profoundly affect a woman's health throughout
her lifetime.
