The medical community once believed that our bodies' hormone levels have decreased because we have aged. Now, it has become clear that our bodies age because hormone levels decrease over time. By replacing the body's natural hormones to achieve the normal, balanced levels we had in our youth, physicians have been able to turn back the clock on the aging process. Helping patients prevent age-related illnesses, reverse biological age, extend life expectancy, and significantly improve the quality of ensuing years is what has been accomplished through natural hormone replacement therapy. Both men and women are subject to these symptoms. In females it's known as perimenopause and menopause, and in males it is known as andropause.

In the past, it was thought that menopause would occur in women around the age of 50, cause emotional and physical discomfort, then go away after a couple of years leaving women period-free and feeling old. Now we know that physical and emotional changes in women may start to be noticeable in a woman's mid to late 30's, particularly in the areas of weight gain, lower sexual drive, moodiness and PMS (Post-Menstrual Syndrome). The good news is that what may be attributed to hormonal imbalance can be regulated, safely and effectively. Women can feel rejuvenated and energized before, during and after menopause.

The purpose of BHRT is to establish hormonal balance. HRT is the administration of estrogen and progesterone.

HRT can be administered in creams, gels, injections, sublingual tablets and patches. This will be dependent on whichever option the doctor and you decide will work best for your lifestyle. Administration can be applied daily or weekly.

If it's right for you, you will take a blood test and take home a 24-hour saliva test. Once we get the results of the saliva test, the doctor will interpret the test, meet with you and discuss the course of treatment.

You will be monitored and seen monthly by the doctor, so if you are having any adverse affects, the doctor can adjust the compound at that time. However, if you feel you need to see the doctor before your scheduled visit, you may call and make an appointment immediately.
