Hormones are crucial chemical messengers that regulate many processes in the body. When hormone levels drop too low, people may develop unpleasant symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. Many factors can contribute to falling hormone levels, especially as we age. The good news is that bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help restore optimal balance.
Imbalances often result from natural drops in hormones associated with aging. For example, estrogen and progesterone start declining during perimenopause and menopause in women, while testosterone tends to decrease in both men and women after age 30. Medical conditions, genetics, poor diet, stress, and lifestyle factors can also disrupt delicate hormonal balance. Even those leading healthy lives may develop deficiencies over time.
The wide variety of signs and symptoms reflects how essential hormones are for overall wellness. Common issues associated with low hormone levels include:
These symptoms often worsen over time without treatment, significantly reducing one’s vitality and enjoyment of life. Research shows links between hormonal imbalance and various diseases too. Identifying and addressing deficiencies early on is crucial.
Bioidentical hormone replacement aims to replenish hormones at optimal levels to eliminate unpleasant symptoms using natural plant-derived hormones identical to those made in the human body. Many studies demonstrate bioidentical HRT's safety and efficacy for both men and women.
Results vary based on one’s unique needs, but most patients report dramatic improvements in many aspects of health and quality of life.
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structures as those produced by the ovaries and testes. The body recognizes and utilizes them easily. In contrast, non-bioidentical or synthetic hormones have slightly altered structures. Common examples include birth control pills, Premarin and Provera. These synthetic hormones may fail to properly bind receptors in cells or accumulate in tissues, heightening health risks.
Experienced anti-aging and hormone therapy specialists first carefully evaluate each patient’s lab tests, symptoms, medical history and goals to develop fully customized regimens using bioidentical hormones. Follow-up testing allows for continual adjustments to ensure optimal balance is achieved and maintained long-term.
The first step is diagnostic testing to accurately identify deficiencies, which may involve:
These assess levels of key hormones like estradiol, testosterone and DHEA. Thyroid hormones T3 and T4 are evaluated too since low thyroid function exacerbates hormonal imbalance symptoms. Testing also checks markers impacted by deficiencies like cholesterol ratios and red blood cell counts.
Saliva testing examines “free” or usable hormone levels which can better indicate cellular deficiencies. Estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, DHEA and testosterone are often included. Diurnal curves mapping hormone fluctuations over 24 hours provide added insight.
Detailed reviews of current symptoms and medical histories help our practitioners determine likelihood of hormonal imbalances and appropriate testing. Ongoing symptom tracking also gauges treatment efficacy.
Accurate diagnosis through high quality testing is the crucial first step. Renew Hormone Institute utilizes top hormone testing labs including ZRT Laboratory. Their advanced LC-MS/MS analysis methods ensure precision results.
Renew Hormone Institute provides fully personalized programs to restore optimal hormonal balance using body-identical hormones. Powerful anti-aging benefits occur when levels are calibrated just right. We utilize considerable medical expertise to determine and provide exactly what each patient needs for peak wellness.
Patients first have an extensive consultation reviewing health and family histories, symptoms, test results, lifestyle and goals. Any additional testing needed is ordered at this time. Our practitioners take the time to understand all relevant details to create ideal treatment plans.
Next we thoroughly analyze health data and test findings to design customized bioidentical hormone therapy protocols. The appropriate hormones, combinations, doses, timing and delivery methods are selected to properly meet each patient’s needs for maximum safety and results.
Patients initially return about 6 weeks into treatment to evaluate progress and make any necessary modifications before continuing therapy. We remain available to support patients, answer all questions, and continually refine regimens. The goal is for each person to achieve full relief of deficiency symptoms and sustained vitality long-term through periodic testing and dosage adjustments over years. Guidance regarding proper diet, exercise, stress management and other lifestyle factors is provided to augment HRT benefits too.
Renew Hormone Institute aims to fully understand the intricacies of hormonal health for every individual patient. Trust our experienced practitioners to provide truly customized care for optimal wellness and longevity.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptom relief. Their chemical structures are similar to endogenous hormones, but data on long-term risks compared to synthetic hormones is still inconclusive.
There are multiple delivery methods to effectively and conveniently restore optimal hormone balance. Renew Hormone Institute determines the best options for each patient.
These allow for precise application of custom hormone preparations directly into the bloodstream. Creams contain ingredients to enhance absorption too. Easy to use at home, topical creams permit flexible dosing according to one’s changing needs.
Hormone injections or longer-acting pellet implants inserted under the skin provide extended hormone release. These methods ensure potent effects and stable levels between doses. Implants placed about every 3-6 months are extremely convenient.
These oral lozenges dissolve to deliver customized hormone combinations which absorb through mucous membranes. Troches allow for quick absorption to address symptoms as needed.
With various options available, Renew Hormone Institute identifies optimal regimens for each unique patient. We continually refine approaches over long-term care for maximum benefits.
