Hormones are essential chemical messengers that regulate many critical bodily functions and processes. As we age or due to medical conditions, our hormones can become imbalanced, leading to unpleasant symptoms and health complications.
Common signs and symptoms of hormone deficiency include:
Hormone levels naturally decline with age. However, more severe or premature hormone deficiency can negatively impact quality of life. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are key.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can help restore optimal hormone levels, providing immense relief from deficiency symptoms. Hormone Harmony Clinic specializes in bioidentical HRT in Rochester. Keep reading to learn more!
What are bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical replicas of the hormones naturally produced by the human body. This allows them to seamlessly bind with existing hormone receptors and mimic the function of our innate hormones.
Common bioidentical hormones include:
Benefits of bioidentical over synthetic hormones:
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can effectively alleviate discomforting deficiency symptoms and support long-lasting vitality.
Here's an overview of the Hormone Harmony Clinic bioidentical HRT process:
Thorough lab testing examines blood levels of key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, DHEA/cortisol. Testing provides insight into specific hormone imbalances.
Our experienced doctors analyze lab results and design a personalized bioidentical HRT regimen to best meet each patient's needs.
Treatment plans specify:
Follow-up blood tests track patient progress. Hormone levels and dosages are periodically adjusted to ensure optimal balance is sustained long-term.
We partner with patients throughout their wellness journey for continuous success!
Declining estrogen and progesterone levels greatly impact women during perimenopause and menopause. Imbalance provokes numerous unpleasant symptoms.
Estrogen deficiency can cause:
Progesterone deficiency contributes to:
Benefits of estrogen progesterone replacement:
Our doctors can prescribe bioidentical estradiol and progesterone creams, tablets, or sublingual drops to gently restore optimal hormone balance.
Follow-up testing ensures dosages remain ideal over the long term. We also provide nutritional advice and supplement recommendations tailored to support women's needs throughout perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.
Unlike conventional hormone therapy, bioidentical hormones are custom-formulated to match a person's natural hormone profile. Interesting research indicates that bioidentical progesterone may help build bone mineral density in postmenopausal women, offering a potential alternative therapy for osteoporosis without risky side effects.
Testosterone is fundamental for both male and female health. Gradual testosterone decline is inevitable with aging. More pronounced drops provoke distressing symptoms that negatively impact quality of life.
Low testosterone (low-T) men experience:
Women with testosterone imbalance may deal with:
Benefits of testosterone replacement:
We offer men topical gels, patches, pellets, and injections to gently restore testosterone status for lasting benefits. For women, low-dose testosterone supplements are carefully prescribed to optimize hormones.
Follow-up blood testing ensures dosages remain ideal so patients consistently thrive! Lifestyle coaching can further support healthy testosterone levels long term.
The small but mighty thyroid gland governs metabolism. Suboptimal thyroid function provokes an array of bothersome signs that can severely undermine wellness.
Common symptoms of low thyroid (hypothyroidism) include:
Benefits of thyroid hormone replacement:
We prescribe natural desiccated thyroid medications or liothyronine/levothyroxine to normalize thyroid hormones for complete symptom relief and rejuvenation. Nutrition and lifestyle tactics also support optimal thyroid function for sustained high energy and health.
As demonstrated above, even small hormone deficiencies can significantly undermine health and quality of life. Nevertheless, millions unknowingly suffer suboptimal hormone levels for prolonged periods.
Many factors contribute to overlooked diagnosis:
We emphasize the importance of precise testing and prompt treatment because prolonged hormone imbalance can:
