Ive been diagnosed with depression. Is it possible that my problems are hormonal?
We would recommend you to discuss this with your practitioner first. Unfortunately its common now to prescribe antidepressants for PMS or perimenopause without considering the possibility of hormone imbalance. In our practice we have seen most of patients lowering down the dose of antidepressants as recommended by their physicians because they start feeling better when hormone imbalances are corrected. Please discuss your progress in the rejuvenation program with your practitioner, and whether you can make adjustments in your medication. In no case is the rejuvenation program a substitute for antidepressants for depression. It may be possible that your depression is hormonally based, and some women have reported good results on the Program. Your results may vary.
