Hormone comes from Greek, which means hormone and means "activation". Later, scholars defined it as trace chemicals produced by endocrine organs, then released into blood circulation and transported to target organs or tissues to play a certain role. Each endocrine gland can produce one or more hormones. The chemical components of hormones can be roughly divided into five categories: protein, peptides, glycoproteins, steroids and amino acids. Different kinds of hormones have different components and different functions. The amount of endocrine hormones produced by human body is very small, such as growth hormone, which is less than 1 microgram in 100 ml of blood, but it has great influence on human body. If the human body lacks growth hormone, it will not grow tall, it will become dwarfism, and its height will be lower than 130 cm in adulthood. 1. What is a hormone? A: Hormones, commonly known as "hormones", are the general names of hormones secreted by human endocrine system that can regulate physiological balance. Various hormones play a regulatory role in the internal environment of human metabolism, the coordination between organs, growth and reproduction. It not only affects the growth and emotional performance of a normal person, but also is an important factor to maintain the balance of various organ systems in the body. Once out of balance, the body will get sick. Hormones play an important role in whether a person can achieve physical and mental health. 2. What is an autologous hormone? A: Autohormones are "hormones produced by your body", not hormones supplemented in vitro. 3. What are the effects of hormones on women? A: Among all hormones, female hormones have the greatest influence on women. Estrogen and lutein secreted by ovary are collectively called female hormones (especially lutein is the most important), which are indispensable hormones for gestating new life and maintaining maternal health. In may 2002, at the world anti-aging conference, Dr. Cage, an oncologist who has worked for more than 30 years, declared: "Since the records of civilization, human beings have always believed that the aging of the body is inevitable? However, after many studies and certifications, we believe that the aging process-the loss of youth and vitality-is not a normal life course, but a disease caused by the lack of physiological function, and the source of human life-insufficient hormone secretion is the main reason for the lack of physiological function. In other words, it is insufficient hormone secretion that leads to aging. By supplementing hormones, aging can be prevented or even reversed. The average life expectancy of human beings is 150 years old, which is not a dream. I have been studying oncology for more than 30 years. Like everyone else, I used to regard every disease as an independent disease with different causes. However, after years of cancer research, I finally understand that many diseases with completely different symptoms and completely different damaged organs have the same cause. The same cause of these seemingly unrelated diseases is aging itself. From the experience of treating cancer, I learned how to treat other diseases that accompany aging. Without it, it is to solve the basic problem-supplementing anti-aging with hormones. " In a research report, Dr. Lang Nuo Courths, Dean of American Anti-aging Medical College, pointed out that 2 1-22 years old is the peak of human youth and the peak of secretory system function. After that, hormone secretion decreased by 10 years 15%. The decrease of hormones will affect the operation of other systems and reduce the functions of various organs in the body. Before the age of 30, the endocrine system of the human body can be automatically adjusted, and the slight reduction of hormones is not enough to affect other physiological functions. But by the age of 30, the secretion of hormones in the body is only 85% of the peak, and the loss of 65,438+05% of hormone secretion leads to the decline of the functions of other organs, and the organs and tissues of the human body begin to age and shrink, and the skin is obviously dim, resulting in mental illness. The lack of physiological function will cause facial aging and psychological loss. At the age of 50, about 40% of the function has been lost. By the age of 60, only young people secrete hormones? 0? About 4, to 80 years old, only 1/5. The concentration of female hormones determines the youth of women. Women with high levels of female hormones in their blood may be 8 years younger than women with low levels of hormones of the same age. One of the most obvious examples: if the woman around us suddenly becomes beautiful, people like to say, "Are you in love?" You may say that this is because people are in a good mood when they are in love, and people in a good mood will be beautiful. In fact, this is not all. When a woman is in love, the concentration of hormones in her body will increase. Stimulated by hormones, the skin will shrink, making a large number of water molecules stay in the collagen at the base of the skin. At this time, the skin looks particularly smooth, delicate and elastic. When a man falls in love with a woman, he will be much gentler and more considerate than before. This is of course the role of hormones. The rapid development of science and technology is constantly changing all aspects of human life. Science has not only put forward the importance of female hormones in theory, but also been tested and confirmed by scientists' practice for many years. 4. What are the main symptoms of female hormone deficiency? 1) Insomnia and headache are manifested as vasospasm headache, depression, palpitation, insomnia, easy awakening, apathy, fatigue, memory loss, paroxysmal hot flashes, mental allergies and other symptoms, which seriously affect daily life. 2) fidgety and chest tightness are characterized by palpitation and shortness of breath, excitability, nervousness, paranoia and even mania. You will blush and have a thick neck when you have an argument with your colleagues or family because of a trivial matter, and it is difficult to control your emotions. Sleeping at night is easy to feel chest tightness and wake up, and when it is serious, there is a one-time increase in blood pressure. 3) Irregular menstruation is characterized by menstrual disorder, irregularity or excessive menstrual flow, often accompanied by large blood clots, or continuous menstrual dripping, which can lead to hemorrhagic anemia in severe cases. 4) Skin aging is characterized by slack skin, wrinkles, spots, dullness and large pores. 6. Why are people with adequate hormones young, healthy and energetic? A: When there are enough hormones in the human body, the cells grow rapidly, the metabolism is vigorous, all organs of the human body are full of vitality, and they have enough physical strength to resist the daily pressure and are optimistic. There are enough cells in the body to fight all kinds of germs, so the whole person is full of energy, healthy and energetic. 7. Why do experts say that menopause is the most painful journey of a woman's life? A: Because after the age of 30, the secretion of female hormones is reduced, causing hot flashes, palpitations, pigmentation, depression, insomnia, dry skin and other diseases. In the long run, you may suffer from cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis, which will last for decades. Therefore, menopause is a woman's most painful life journey. 8. Why do women of the same age look older than men? Women who have passed away in their prime often sigh: the charm of men is directly proportional to their age, and the beauty of women is inversely proportional to their age. Since puberty, women have experienced irregular menstruation every month: headache, insomnia, abdominal pain, and small pimples on their faces; It is an indispensable life responsibility for women to give birth to new life in maturity: pregnancy, childbirth, edema and pregnancy spots; When children grow up, they should be able to relax and enjoy life. Menopause comes to women: hot flashes, insomnia, headaches, depression, osteoporosis and joint pain. Modern medicine has proved that the physiological status of women in every stage of their lives is closely related to the secretion of female hormones. Female hormones maintain the normal operation of female physiological functions. If the hormone secretion is unbalanced, it will lead to the decline and aging of physiological functions and various maladjustment symptoms. For example: irritability, mood swings, insomnia, memory loss, pain, wrinkles, spots and so on. The loss of hormones and physical pain accelerate the aging of women. In addition, the beginning and end of male puberty are later than women's, and male adolescence is relatively longer than women's, which is why women of the same age are older than men! Female hormones are to women what gasoline is to cars! The most fundamental thing for a woman to stay young and beautiful is to maintain the level of hormones in her body. 9. Are hormones related to menopause? A: Yes! Medical report calls for: endure palpitation, insomnia, hot flashes, vomiting and vomiting. After several years of disorder, hundreds of millions of middle-aged women suffer from menopausal discomfort, some of whom can't stand it and even have suicidal thoughts. This is a group of "patients" that psychologists can't treat. Let's uncover the mystery of menopause! The creator's greatest contribution to the ability of human beings to reproduce life lies in the creation of the source of life-hormones. Biomedical, brain physiology and molecular biology studies have proved that there is a close relationship among human secretory system, immune system and nervous system. When people reach the age of 45, there is a sharp decline from appearance (such as rapid skin relaxation and aging) to physical physiology (hypogonadism), which leads to a series of changes in the functions of nervous system and immune system, thus inducing various diseases and symptoms. This transition from middle age to old age is called "menopause". Therefore, women all have menopause, and men are no exception. For the average person, the symptoms are mild. Through the self-regulation of the nervous and endocrine systems and proper health care, after a period of time, the menopause can be successfully passed and the old age can be successfully entered. However, it is difficult for some people to adapt to this sudden change in endocrine, and a series of serious symptoms appear, such as irritability, dizziness, palpitation, insomnia, forgetfulness, excessive heat, sweating, fatigue, ant-like walking on the skin, joint pain, depression, nervousness, urgency of urination, vaginal dryness, etc., which seriously affect normal work and life. "Menopause" is the only way of life, but also a turning point in life. In fact, not everyone will have menopausal symptoms when they reach the age of 50. If you know the right way to keep in good health, menopausal symptoms will not patronize you at all. Hormone deficiency is the chief culprit of menopausal symptoms. Because women react more strongly to hormone changes in the body than men, menopausal symptoms are more common in women, but less in men. This hormonal change is like riding a roller coaster, which can start at the earliest at the age of 35 or 40. When the concentration of female hormones drops sharply, symptoms such as hot flashes, depression, insomnia and irritability will become very serious, especially for women with hormonal disorders such as premenstrual syndrome and ovarian cysts, menopause will start earlier than the average person.
