What are Hormones?

To understand BHRT and why it’s effective, first you must understand how hormones work.

Hormones are chemical messengers in the body. They carry important messages and cues to different organs, tissues, and muscles—allowing them to perform essential functions and keep the body running efficiently. Every process and function in our bodies is under some hormonal control. When hormones are not at optimal levels people start to experience unwanted symptoms and if ignored can even lead to more serious medical problems.

Essential Hormones In The Body

The body has over 50 different hormones each with a unique function and often work synergistically together. As we age, hormones decline naturally. Further decline can occur due to toxins in our environment, medical problems or medications.

Four of our most crucial hormones: testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, and DHEA begin to decline in our late thirties. Since hormones are essential to bodily function, having low levels often has negative health and lifestyle impacts. However, there is an option to restore appropriate hormone levels through BHRT.

Testosterone is arguably the most vital hormone in both men and women. It is the most abundant sex hormone for both men and women throughout our lives although men make a larger percentage than women. It has receptor sites in every tissue of our bodies. It positively affects brain cognition and mood, promotes restful sleep, increases metabolic rate and energy, increases joint lubrication, builds strong bone and muscle, improves libido and sexual function. It has an anti-inflammatory effect, helps build strong bone and muscle, and it has a role in both libido and sexual function.

With low testosterone levels, the body can experience:

Estradiol is the most beneficial form of estrogen in terms of maximizing health. Like Testosterone both men and women have these hormones in our bodies but in different percentages. Estradiol has positive effects on building bone, youthful skin (collagen production), brain function, libido and has a beneficial effect on cardiovascular health and cholesterol. It controls and regulates menstruation cycles, female reproductive systems, and breast development. 

Estradiol is also vital in the male body but they have a lesser percentage than women. In males, estradiol affects erectile function, libido, brain health, bones, and skin. With low levels of estrogen (this commonly occurs during or after menopause) people can experience:

Progesterone has been called the women's wellness hormone for good reason. It acts like our natural anti-anxiety hormone; it has a calming effect on both the mind and the body. Depleted amounts can cause mood swings and increased anxiety and/or depression. Progesterone and estrogen work together, and if levels of Progesterone are low, this can create a condition called estrogen dominance. These two hormones also work together to balance the body’s release of insulin and if levels are not optimized, you can have an increased risk for insulin resistance causing weight gain. Progesterone also helps improve thyroid function, reduces hot flashes, improves sleep, promotes memory and improves PMS related symptoms both emotional and physical.  

DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone, is a very important hormone. It is made by the adrenal glands and testing DHEA levels can be a good measure of your adrenal health. DHEA improves the function of the immune system, improves brain function, relieves stress, and has been shown to be a very potent anti-cancer hormone. DHEA is also an antioxidant as it appears to prevent the formation of free radicals.

However, DHEA levels begin to decline steadily after age 25. By the age of 40, most people are not producing adequate levels. In fact, it has been estimated that DHEA levels decrease by 80% throughout adulthood. Restoring DHEA levels can improve quality of life tremendously.

Reclaim Your Vitality

As we age, our bodies undergo myriad changes, many of which can lead to uncomfortable symptoms and a diminished quality of life. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) offers a natural and effective solution to help you regain balance, vitality, and well-being. Unlike traditional hormone replacement therapies, BHRT uses hormones that are chemically identical to those your body naturally produces, ensuring a more harmonious and effective treatment.

Natural and Personalized Approach

One of the standout benefits of BHRT is its personalized nature. Treatment plans are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, based on comprehensive hormone level assessments. This personalized approach ensures that you receive the precise hormones and dosages your body requires, leading to optimal results and minimal side effects.

Alleviate Menopause and Andropause Symptoms

For women, menopause can bring a host of unpleasant symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and decreased libido. Similarly, men experiencing andropause may face fatigue, weight gain, depression, and a reduction in muscle mass. BHRT effectively alleviates these symptoms, providing relief and enhancing overall quality of life. By restoring hormonal balance, BHRT helps you feel like yourself again, revitalizing your physical and emotional well-being.

Improved Mental Clarity and Mood

Hormones play a crucial role in brain function and emotional health. Imbalances can lead to mood swings, anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline. BHRT supports mental clarity and emotional stability by restoring hormone levels to their optimal state. Many individuals report significant improvements in memory, focus, and overall mental well-being after starting BHRT, allowing them to navigate their daily lives with greater ease and confidence.

Enhanced Physical Health

Beyond alleviating symptoms, BHRT also offers several long-term health benefits. Balanced hormone levels can improve bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Additionally, BHRT has been linked to better heart health, with studies suggesting it may help in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases. By promoting a healthy balance of hormones, BHRT supports your overall physical health and longevity.

Weight Management and Increased Energy

Hormonal imbalances can lead to weight gain and a decrease in energy levels, making it difficult to maintain an active lifestyle. BHRT can help regulate your metabolism, making it easier to manage your weight. Furthermore, many individuals experience a significant boost in energy levels, enabling them to engage in physical activities and enjoy a more active, fulfilling life.

Experience a Better Quality of Life

BHRT is not just about alleviating symptoms—it's about enhancing your overall quality of life. By addressing the root cause of hormonal imbalances, BHRT helps you feel more vibrant, energetic, and youthful. Whether you're struggling with the symptoms of menopause, andropause, or other hormonal imbalances, BHRT offers a safe, natural, and effective solution.
