Hormones play a crucial role in regulating many essential functions and processes in the human body. As we age, hormone levels can become imbalanced, resulting in undesirable symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) involves supplementing the body with lab-made hormones that are molecularly identical to those naturally produced, helping restore optimal hormonal balance.
Treatment with bioidentical hormones provides an effective approach to alleviating unpleasant menopause symptoms, addressing thyroid disorders, and improving outcomes for hormone-responsive conditions. Administered under medical supervision, bioidentical hormones offer a more natural option than traditional synthetic hormone replacement.
Renew Hormone Clinic specializes in customized bioidentical hormone therapy to help patients achieve wellness goals and enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle. Our compassionate providers leverage their expertise to formulate treatment plans suited to each individual’s needs.
Identifying and addressing the root hormonal causes of these concerns through BHRT can provide significant relief. Renew Hormone Clinic specializes in testing to pinpoint imbalances and delivering customized treatment plans.
The term “bioidentical” refers to hormones that are chemically equivalent to those produced naturally in the human body. Some key facts about bioidentical hormones:
The purpose of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is to supplement deficient hormones to achieve better balance and relieve unpleasant symptoms. Introducing bioidentical hormones in tailored doses restores levels to an optimal range, allowing patients to feel more like themselves.
Both men and women can benefit from bioidentical HRT to address hormone deficiencies underlying conditions like hypothyroidism or menopause. Our knowledgeable health providers assess hormone levels and patterns to create custom treatment plans aimed at helping patients thrive.
Renew Hormone Clinic specialists stay at the forefront of best-practices for analysis of hormone status. We collaborate with high-quality labs for comprehensive testing to gain insights prior to developing personalized therapy plans. Hormone tests may include:
Accurate testing provides the foundation for determining appropriate bioidentical hormones and doses. Our providers interpret lab results from a functional standpoint to identify opportunities for better hormone health and related wellbeing.
In alignment with our integrative care model, Renew Hormone Clinic practitioners formulate custom BHRT plans focused on the individual. We tailor various parameters to meet patient needs and goals:
We modify protocols over time as necessary based on clinical evaluations and patient feedback. Our goal is to help patients feel their best while ensuring safety.
Balancing key hormones with bioidentical HRT conveys wide-ranging benefits. Patients work with our staff to identify their top priorities and track improvements. Potential benefits include:
Supplementing estrogen, progesterone and/or testosterone levels can provide immense relief for those struggling with hot flashes, sleep disruption, vaginal atrophy and other debilitating menopausal symptoms. BHRT helps restore comfort and quality of life.
By addressing the root hormonal causes of fatigue, weight gain and low libido, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy allows many patients to enjoy renewed energy, healthy bodies and intimacy. Correcting deficiencies transforms health status and wellbeing.
Hormone imbalances contribute to anxiety, depression and mood instability characteristic of perimenopause and menopause. Our patients often report better emotional resilience, focus and positivity from our therapy protocols.
In addition to physical improvements, balanced hormones bolster confidence and overall contentment with life. Our compassionate staff can recommend complementary therapies like counseling or life coaching as part of a comprehensive plan.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report preferring them because they more closely mimic the body's natural hormones. More research is still needed on their long-term risks and benefits.
Renew Hormone Clinic facilitates each step of the bioidentical hormone replacement journey – from initial appointments through follow-up care. We partner closely so patients fully understand the process and what to expect.
The first visit includes a thorough history, physical examination, lab review and in-depth discussion to identify symptoms, health goals and appropriate testing. We obtain relevant medical records and imaging to inform our evaluation. Clarifying patient priorities drives the therapy planning process.
In addition to specialized hormone tests, evaluations may include analysis of nutrient status, biomarkers of inflammation and cardiac risk, and advanced imaging. Renew Hormone Clinic coordinates care with other specialists when warranted. Test selection and interpretation focuses on uncovering root causes underlying patient concerns.
Our staff presents test findings, explains hormonal contributions to health status, and makes specific recommendations during an extended results review session. We address patient questions and jointly develop an appropriate treatment strategy – including bioidentical hormones, lifestyle approaches and follow up testing to assess progress.
Hormone therapy requires careful oversight and adjustment over months to achieve optimal balance. We schedule follow up visits, additional lab testing as needed, and medication adjustments in response to patient feedback about symptoms and health goals. The duration varies based on the condition.
Our commitment extends beyond the initial treatment phase. We provide ongoing care and resources to support patient education and sustained wellbeing.
