Hormone imbalances can negatively impact quality of life. As we age or go through major life changes, our hormone levels fluctuate, sometimes dramatically. Symptoms may include:
Causes of hormone deficiency include:
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help alleviate uncomfortable signs and symptoms of hormone imbalance. Bioidentical means the hormones are structurally identical to those naturally produced by the human body. This allows cells to more readily recognize and utilize them.
Potential benefits of BHRT include:
BHRT may reduce risk of conditions like osteoporosis and heart disease when started early in hormone decline. It can also slow aging skin changes.
BHRT supplements estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and other hormones using FDA-approved, natural plant-derived hormones. These bioidentical hormones come in pills, pellets, creams, gels and patches.
Our practitioners personalize treatment to your unique needs based on:
Adjusting dosages over time helps make therapy as effective as possible. Close provider supervision ensures optimal safety too.
We utilize advanced diagnostics to tailor BHRT to your body’s distinctive hormone requirements for superior solutions:
Blood tests help us pinpoint where your levels fall on the menopause spectrum. Repeat bloodwork also lets us calibrate to keep hormones balanced.
Genetic testing predicts how well you might respond to bioidentical estrogens, progesterone and testosterone. Gene results guide customization for better progress.
Gut microbiome mapping illustrates bacterial balance in the digestive tract. Since estrogen metabolism happens via gut flora, we can support areas of microbial weakness impacting hormone health.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report feeling better on bioidenticals. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to traditional hormone therapy.

In addition to balancing hormones, we provide therapies addressing root causes of age-related decline. Cutting-edge modalities like peptide treatments and NAD boost immune function, heart health, muscle tone, DNA repair and stress resilience for amplifying vitality long-term.
Since hormone testing can be confusing, we simplify analysis guiding patients clearly:
Accurately decoding testing kinetics improves detection enabling therapy to target root dysfunction early on.
Clinical research confirms adopting preventative care protects long-term health better than reactive medicine later on.
Age 50-60 sees substantial hormone declines setting the stage for degenerative conditions. Intervening during perimenopause with BHRT significantly lowers disease risk.
Age 60-70 presents rising prevalence of diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular and neurocognitive issues. Balancing key hormones now defends against inflammation fueling such illness.
After age 70 risk reduction becomes more difficult but never impossible. Supportive care focusing on nutrition, lifestyle and stress resilience helps maintain independence, function and vitality.
Regardless of age, our goal is compressing morbidity towards the end of life using integrative methods. People enjoying active senescence usually follow proper healthcare strategies much earlier.
