Listen Later

Have you considered the impact a concussion could have on your hormones?

It's easy to overlook, but concussions can lead to significant hormonal changes in men. If you're experiencing unexplained symptoms after a head injury, there's a chance they could be hormone-related.

While common concussion symptoms like headaches, dizziness, or cognitive issues are well known, hormonal imbalances may not be on your radar. Understanding these connections could be key to finding the right treatment and support.

On today's episode, we explore the link between concussions and hormone changes in men. Although research is limited, we share what we know, including studies on growth hormone and testosterone deficiencies after a head injury. The effects of these imbalances can be wide-ranging, impacting everything from energy levels to mood, and even muscle tone.

In this episode, you'll learn:

👉 How concussions can lead to growth hormone and testosterone deficiencies in men

👉 The common symptoms associated with these hormone deficiencies

👉 The importance of seeking specialized testing and treatment for hormone-related issues

👉 How functional medicine or naturopathic care can help with hormone imbalances

Hormonal changes after a concussion are a complex topic with many potential causes and symptoms. Tune in to learn about the importance of proper testing and why a holistic approach to treatment can make a big difference in recovery. Don't miss this episode if you or someone you know is dealing with the aftermath of a concussion. It could be the missing piece to the puzzle.
