Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, our hormone levels decline causing unpleasant symptoms. Replacing these declining hormones with bioidentical versions can provide relief from symptoms and help people feel healthier and more energetic as they get older.
Vitality Renewal Clinic clinic in Beaumont specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). We create customized treatment plans featuring FDA-approved bioidentical estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and other hormones tailored to your unique needs. Read on to learn more about bioidentical hormones, common deficiency symptoms, and how BHRT can help Beaumont residents optimize health, vitality and quality of life.
Bioidentical hormones are man-made hormones that are chemically identical to those produced naturally in the human body. This means they fit perfectly into hormone receptors and behave exactly the same way. In contrast, synthetic versions of hormones often fail to provide the body what it needs.
There are bioidentical versions of most key hormones including:
Helps regulate menstrual cycles and menopausal symptoms in women. Low estrogen levels contribute to hot flashes, vaginal dryness, low libido and disturbed sleep.
Works synergistically with estrogen in women. Imbalances between the two contribute to PMS, irregular bleeding, low libido, anxiety and bloating.
The primary male sex hormone. Low testosterone in men contributes to low energy, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction and mood changes. Testosterone deficiency affects both sexes.
A precursor to estrogen and testosterone. DHEA levels peak around age 25 then decline. Supplementing DHEA can fight age-related hormone decline.
Declining levels of these hormones contribute to poor sleep quality, reduced energy, low immunity and accelerated aging.
BHRT using custom-compounded bioidentical hormones can effectively treat deficiencies in these and other key hormones.
Hormones like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone deliver important chemical messages throughout the body that regulate key bodily processes related to growth, metabolism, reproduction, cognition and behavior.
Beginning around age 30, hormone levels start to decline. The rate of decline accelerates with age. By age 60-70 many people are quite deficient. This hormone decline causes a range of unpleasant symptoms and health issues.
Supplementing declining hormones back to more youthful levels with bioidentical versions provides major symptom relief and enhanced wellbeing. Let's discuss some of the most common deficiency symptoms.
Bioidentical hormone therapy offered by Vitality Renewal Clinic can effectively treat hormone deficiencies - eliminating unpleasant symptoms and restoring wellbeing.
The first step at Vitality Renewal Clinic is to order advanced hormone blood tests to accurately identify your specific deficiencies. We provide $199value initial consult visits to new patients where we:
Once test results are in, our physicians analyze the data and formulate personalized bioidentical hormone treatments featuring optimal doses/ratios of hormones your body needs.
We offer both capsule and topical cream bioidentical hormone preparations allowing multiple dosing options for your convenience. Follow-ups visits feature fine tuning of dosages and ratios as needed to realize optimal symptom relief.
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those naturally produced in the human body. However, there is debate around whether compounding pharmacies can reliably produce standardized and safe bioidentical hormone products that truly mimic natural hormones. More research is still needed on their long-term safety and efficacy.
Correcting hormone deficiencies with bioidentical estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and/or DHEA offers impressive benefits including:
Replacing missing hormones effectively eliminates corresponding symptoms - allowing you to feel normal and fully functional again. Those suffering hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, erectile dysfunction, vaginal dryness, disturbed sleep and other issues enjoy major symptom relief.
With balanced hormone levels, most people report feeling 10-15 years younger with enhanced energy, stamina, mental clarity and zest for life. Renewed motivation for work, recreation and relationships is commonly reported.
Balanced hormone levels optimize metabolic function and body composition. Many people lose excess fat (especially abdominal fat) while gaining lean muscle mass. This reduces cardiovascular disease risks while enhancing fitness and appearance.
Deep, restful sleep is essential to health, cognitive function, stable mood and vitality. Optimal estrogen, progesterone, melatonin and growth hormone levels promote high-quality sleep.
When estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are balanced, mood stabilizes. Depression, anxiety, irritability and emotional instability improve dramatically - as does clarity of thought and memory/concentration.
Estrogen plays a key role in bone remodeling - stimulating osteoblasts that form new bone tissue. Supplementing estrogen increases bone mineral density protecting against osteoporosis. It also reduces fracture risks.
Estrogen deficiency increases risks for heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and vision problems like macular degeneration. Balancing estrogen levels significantly reduces these age-related disease risks.
Declining estrogen levels contribute to pelvic organ prolapse, uterine fibroids and unwanted bladder/bowel leakage issues. Low progesterone exacerbates these problems. Correcting these deficiencies improves pelvic health and function.
Bioidentical estrogen, progesterone, DHEA and growth hormone injections stimulate collagen production. This reduces wrinkles, dryness, sagging and other visible signs of aging. Hair and nails also grow faster and stronger.
The first step in initiating treatment is diagnostic testing to accurately identify your specific hormone deficiencies.
We then schedule a comprehensive 90 minute new patient consultation where one of our board-certified nurse practitioners specializing in hormone therapy and/or anti-aging medicine will:
Vitality Renewal Clinic features state-of-the-art compounding lab allowing great flexibility in customizing your hormone preparations including:
Capsule hormones represent convenient traditional dosing where levels build up then decline between doses. We compound capsules featuring unique ratios/doses of various hormones patients need.
We also formulate custom topical hormone creams applied directly to thin skin areas allowing steady absorption mimicking natural hormone production patterns.
For some patients, injectable preparations of testosterone, growth hormone or other hormones work best to balance needs. We train patients to self-administer hormone injections at home for convenience.
Surgically implanted hormone pellets placed under the skin offer another long-lasting release option providing steady hormone levels for 3-6 months without need to take daily medication.
Follow-up visits every 4-6 weeks allow testing and dosage adjustments until patients report complete deficiency symptom relief. We also provide ongoing monitoring, support and medication adjustments as needed on annual or semi-annual basis. Visit () for details on these advanced anti-aging, regenerative therapies.
