Bio-identical hormones are hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced in the human body. They are custom-made in a compounding pharmacy to match a person's individual hormone needs.
Bio-identical hormones are used to treat hormonal imbalances that occur with aging and health conditions. Common bio-identical hormones include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, melatonin, and thyroid hormone.
Some key benefits of bio-identical hormone therapy include:
Determining if a person will benefit from bio-identical hormones starts with blood tests to check hormone levels. This allows customized treatment based on the individual's needs.
At the Rebalance Hormone Health, initial testing includes estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid hormones (T3, T4), melatonin, and cortisol levels. Follow-up tests may assess Vitamin D, nutrients, or markers of chronic inflammation.
Based on results and symptoms, the highly experienced physicians at Rebalance Hormone Health create a personalized bio-identical hormone program. They collaborate with specialty compounding pharmacies to formulate hormone combinations, doses, and delivery methods to suit each unique patient.
There are several reasons hormone production declines with age:
In addition, some medical treatments like oophorectomy, problems like endometriosis, and health conditions such as hypothyroidism can lead to hormone disruption and deficiency at any age.
The key is identifying hormone declines early through testing. Bio-identical hormones can then be used to replenish levels, providing widespread health and wellness benefits.
The physicians at Rebalance Hormone Health specialize in anti-aging and regenerative medicine, with an emphasis on bio-identical hormone therapy. With over 30 years of combined experience, the doctors stay at the forefront of the latest advancements in this emerging field.
They continually enhance their understanding of the complex interactions between hormones, genetics, and health. By regularly attending conferences and collaborating with leaders in biomedical research, they provide patients access to the most innovative, evidence-based hormone balancing protocols.
The process of beginning bio-identical hormone therapy includes:
- Review health history and symptoms - Perform physical examination - Order blood tests to assess hormone levels
- Evaluate test results - Discuss pros and cons of treatment options - Create customized hormone prescription
- Begin hormone therapy - Schedule follow-up blood tests - Adjust prescriptions based on response - Notice improvements in symptoms
The physicians at Rebalance Hormone Health guide patients through every phase of treatment to ensure optimal response. Follow-ups to evaluate progress are key to successful, long-lasting results.
