I have my hormones balanced. Most doctors are giving women synthetic hormones, which just eliminate the symptoms, but it’s doing nothing to actually replace the hormones you have lost. Without our hormones we die.
Meaning of the quote

It doesn't replace the real hormones your body needs. Without the right hormones, your body can't work properly and you could even die.
