The human body contains many hormones that regulate critical bodily processes and functions. These include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid hormone, and others. As we age or due to medical conditions, we may develop a hormone imbalance leading to undesirable symptoms. Restoring optimal hormone levels through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can provide significant benefits.
Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. Replacing deficient hormones with bioidentical versions allows the body to function properly without unwanted side effects. Maintaining youthful hormone levels supports vitality, health, and an overall sense of well-being.
The first step is diagnostic testing to assess current hormone levels. Standard lab tests can identify deficiencies or excess of key hormones. Based on test results, customized BHRT treatment plans can be developed for each patient's needs.
Ongoing testing and monitoring helps ensure optimal hormone balance is achieved and maintained. We utilize leading-edge diagnostic technology and proven treatment protocols focused on the individual. Our physicians and nurses are highly trained in BHRT to restore wellness efficiently and safely.
Correcting hormone deficiencies and imbalances provides a wide range of meaningful benefits:
The body works best when hormone levels are balanced and optimized. BHRT can help patients feel healthier, happier, and embrace life fully.
There are several key hormones that tend to decline as part of the natural aging process. Understanding their roles and functions allows customized treatment plans to be created.
Estrogen is crucial for female sexual development and function. Declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause leads to symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, anxiety, fatigue, and disrupted sleep. Restoring estrogen levels alleviates these symptoms and supports better health.
Progesterone helps balance and modulate estrogen's effects. With menopause, progesterone levels also fall. This exacerbates many menopausal symptoms linked to estrogen withdrawal. Bringing progesterone back up enhances estrogen's therapeutic impact.
While known as the "male" sex hormone, testosterone plays an important role in women for energy, mood, mental clarity, muscle tone, bone strength, and sexuality. Testosterone levels fall in both men and women after age 30, contributing to declines seen with aging.
The butterfly-shaped thyroid gland controls metabolism. With aging, thyroid hormone output often slows, causing fatigue, weight gain, cold sensitivity, constipation, muscle weakness, puffy eyes, dry skin, and hair loss. Restoring thyroid balance reverses these symptoms.
These are just a few examples of key hormones that decline with age, negatively impacting wellness and vitality. Through precision testing and personalized treatment we can rebalance your hormones for better health.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Although marketed as "natural," the risks and benefits of bioidenticals are still being researched.
