Hormone therapy is the use of hormones to supplement low hormone levels and relieve unpleasant symptoms of hormone deficiency. Hormone levels naturally decline with age, but sometimes unexplained hormone deficiencies can happen at any age due to medical conditions or other factors. The goal of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is to get hormones back into balance and maintain optimal levels.
When hormones are low, patients may experience symptoms like fatigue, poor sleep, low libido, hot flashes, night sweats, weight gain, muscle loss, mood changes, heart issues, and loss of strength and stamina. Catching and addressing hormone imbalance early is key to feeling your best and avoiding long-term health consequences.
HRT can be done through pills, patches, gels, pellets, injections and creams to elevate hormone levels. Treatment must be closely monitored by a medical professional to keep levels in the optimal range. Patients should have blood tests periodically to ensure proper hormone balance is achieved and maintained.
Key benefits of HRT and maintaining ideal hormone levels include:
The first step toward HRT is getting the right diagnostic tests to confirm a hormone deficiency exists. Key hormones that decline with age include testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA and growth hormone. Thyroid and cortisol levels can also become suboptimal.
There are specific blood tests that can measure levels of these hormones or their metabolites. Balance & Renew Clinic provides state-of-the art testing to precisely evaluate a patient's hormone status. Based on the test results, custom treatment plans can be developed to restore optimal balance through HRT.
Warning signs and symptoms that hormone testing may be warranted include:
If multiple symptoms are present, hormone blood tests can help uncover the root cause. Individualized HRT programs can then help patients find relief.
Balance & Renew Clinic provides cutting-edge testosterone and estrogen therapies to help patients restore hormonal balance from within. Backed by renowned medical experts in the field of age management medicine, we offer a full spectrum of treatment options to cater to each patient's unique needs.
Testosterone is crucial for both men and women. It regulates libido, energy, cognition, muscle mass, strength, mood and more. But testosterone levels decline substantially around age 30 onwards.
Low testosterone or clinically diagnosed hypogonadism can severely impact quality of life. SYMPTOMS like fatigue, depression, erectile dysfunction, loss of strength, reduced stamina, and inability to focus plague many adults today.
At Balance & Renew Clinic, we provide pharmaceutical grade testosterone in multiple delivery methods including injections, gels, pellets and more to help patients overcome low T. Patients are closely monitored to ensure optimum testosterone levels are achieved and maintained long-term.
Benefits of TRT include:
With TRT, both men and women can feel younger, stronger and restored.
For women transitioning into menopause, balancing estrogen levels is critical for wellbeing.
As the body makes less estrogen, symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, painful sex, insomnia, weight gain, mood swings and loss of skin elasticity occur. Heart health may also decline.
To relieve menopause symptoms and support graceful aging, Balance & Renew Clinic offers estrogen hormone replacement including:
Patients receive personalized treatment plans tailored to their needs and health status. We help women balance estrogen in a bioidentical form their bodies recognize to avoid complications.
With balanced estrogen levels, patients report:
At Balance & Renew Clinic, we have immense experience using estrogen and its synergistic hormones like progesterone to help women thrive in perimenopause and beyond.
Catching and correcting hormone imbalance early is vital. The longer patients live with suboptimal hormone levels, the higher risk for complications like heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, osteoporosis, anxiety, depression and more.
Therefore, if patients notice multiple signs and symptoms of hormonal decline, they should get tested promptly rather than wait. At Balance & Renew Clinic, initial blood tests can be completed quickly to formulate a timely treatment plan. We aim to prevent long-term damage from hormonal deficiency whenever possible.
Through precise testing and expert analysis, our practitioners can detect imbalance even before major symptoms manifest. We help patients get ahead of continued deterioration and support optimal wellness for years to come.
