Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone play a crucial role in regulating metabolism, sexual health, cognition, mood, sleep quality, and much more. When our hormones fall out of balance due to aging, stress, or other factors, deficiency symptoms and complications can result. Monitoring hormone levels through blood tests allows tailored bioidentical hormone therapy to restore balance safely and effectively when needed.
Declining hormone levels cause noticeable symptoms long before reaching complete deficiency. Early symptoms prompting testing may include:
Fatigue, low motivation, reduced muscle mass, and low sex drive often indicate declining testosterone levels.
Perimenopause marks the body's gradual estrogen production decline, with common signs like hot flashes and night sweats.
Hormone imbalance commonly manifests as anxiety, irritability, and depression.
Bioidentical hormones like estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone closely match hormones naturally made by the body, avoiding unwanted side effects of synthetic versions. Custom compounded hormone therapy with careful dose adjustment restores optimal balance tailored to the individual's needs and lifestyle for enhanced wellbeing.
Hormones can be delivered via convenient transdermal creams, sublingual tablets, pellet implants beneath the skin lasting months, or injections, depending on the individual's needs and preferences.
We utilize blood tests before and during therapy to confirm deficiency and continually optimize dosing, meeting the highest standards of care.

Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body. Yet despite being natural, long-term studies on their safety are still lacking, leaving uncertainty around potential cancer and heart disease risks with prolonged use. More research is needed.
Managing changing hormone needs is crucial for sustaining health, not a cosmetic luxury. Increased energy, easier weight management, enhanced intimacy, improved mental health, and lower long term disease risks make bioidentical hormone therapy an empowering investment. We encourage you to take charge of your wellbeing with individualized care from our hormone balance experts.
