Hormone replacement therapy Andrews, TX - Rejuvenate Clinic

Understanding Hormone Imbalances

An imbalance of key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and thyroid can cause debilitating symptoms in both women and men. As we age or face health conditions, our hormone production can become less than optimal, leading to issues like fatigue, depression, low libido, hot flashes, weight gain, and more.

Getting tested to check your hormone levels is critical for uncovering the root causes of stubborn, hard-to-diagnose symptoms. Once identified, customized hormone replacement therapy and lifestyle changes can bring transformative relief by returning hormones to more youthful levels.

Diagnosing Hormone Deficiencies

Detecting a true hormone imbalance requires specialized blood, saliva or urine tests. Relying only on symptoms makes it difficult to pinpoint specific deficiencies.

Some key lab tests check levels of:

Signs of Hormonal Imbalance

While symptoms can vary widely, several suggestive signs of low hormone levels include:

Women * Hot flashes, night sweats * Vaginal dryness * Unexplained weight gain * Depression, mood swings * Insomnia * Loss of muscle mass

Men * Low libido, erectile dysfunction * Decreased strength and endurance * Loss of body hair * Testicular shrinkage * Declining mental sharpness

If multiple symptoms persist, having your sex and thyroid hormones tested can uncover whether hormone imbalance is the culprit.

Benefits of Bioidentical HRT

Bioidentical hormone replacement aims to replenish diminished sex hormones using natural, plant-derived compounds tailored to match what our bodies produce. This approach is extremely effective at relieving symptoms of hormonal decline while minimizing risks compared to traditional HRT.

Restoring Optimal Hormone Levels

Treatment begins by testing individual hormone levels to determine which are out of balance. Customized regimens and dosages can then address deficiencies in:

Follow-up testing confirms hormone normalization, with dosages adjusted until optimal levels and symptom relief are achieved.

Benefits of Treatment

Restoring hormones to more youthful ranges with bioidentical therapy can provide remarkable improvements in:

In essence, properly balancing hormones - the body's chemical messengers - allows cells throughout the body to communicate and function at their peak.

Estrogen and Progesterone for Women

Balancing estradiol, estrone and estriol forms of estrogen along with progesterone is vital for female wellness. Benefits include easing hot flashes and night sweats, promoting restful sleep, improving vaginal health and natural lubrication, supporting heart and bone health, boosting cognition and mood, and maintaining a healthy metabolism, weight and figure.

Testosterone for Men and Women

Testosterone acts as a powerful anti-aging catalyst for both sexes. Bioidentical testosterone therapy can restore satisfying libido and sexual function, spark motivation and self-confidence, build lean muscle mass, sharpen mental focus and acuity, stabilize mood and outlook, promote restful sleep, support cardiovascular health, maintain youthful physique and vitality, and keep chronic diseases like diabetes and dementia at bay.

Hormone Replacement Therapy Protocols

HRT regimens must be highly customized since optimal hormone levels vary widely, especially between sexes and ages. Rejuvenate Clinic determines the right medication options and dosages through specialized testing, choosing from:

Bioidentical Estrogen Forms

We prescribe bioidentical estrogen in multiple delivery methods for convenience:

Progesterone capsules, gels or sublingual drops are often combined synergistically with estrogen to provide optimal balance between the two key female sex hormones.

Bioidentical Testosterone Options

We offer bioidentical testosterone therapy for both women and men to restore more youthful levels:

Women receive much lower testosterone doses than men through creams/gels or sublingual drops. Effects can promote satisfying libido, spark energy/motivation, build lean muscle, sharpen mental abilities, reduce anxiety/depression, and support bone density and cardiovascular health.

Men have options of testosterone cypionate or enanthate injections, gels, creams or patches to alleviate symptoms of low testosterone including poor libido, erectile dysfunction, reduced muscle mass and strength, increased body fat, low energy, and emotional issues like depression and irritability.

Follow-up blood testing ensures testosterone levels normalize without exceeding safe ranges.

Thyroid Hormone Replacement

Since low thyroid function (hypothyroidism) often accompanies sex hormone decline, we test T3, T4 and TSH levels and provide customized natural thyroid hormone or T3/T4 mix to resolve low metabolism symptoms like stubborn weight gain, fatigue and mood changes when indicated.

Restoring Wellness and Vitality

Improved Energy, Mood and Mental Sharpness

Bioidentical hormone replacement aims to replicate the balanced hormone symphony we naturally produce in our youth - best known as feeling vibrant, motivated and mentally acute. By treating deficiencies, physical and mental energy soars, mood stabilizes, outlook improves and concentration/memory become sharply focused once more.

Sarah's Story: Regaining Her Spark

"I was stumbling through my days in a fog with no energy or motivation. Menopause had sapped my vitality so completely I feared growing old would be mostly misery. Now, just 6 months after starting bioidentical HRT at Rejuvenate Clinic, it's like someone flipped a light switch inside me. The mental haze lifted and spark returned almost overnight with balanced hormones coursing through me. Energy soars, passion for life is back, and I wake up feeling optimistic and eager to embrace each day."

Renewed sexual intimacy and function

Declining hormones are a major cause of frustrating low libido and sexual dysfunction for both sexes. By restoring testosterone, estrogen and progesterone to more optimal levels, bioidentical HRT effectively reawakens natural urges and functioning. Sensuality, arousal and satisfaction from intimacy dramatically improve.

Protecting heart, bone and brain health

The age-related drop in estrogen, testosterone and progesterone leaves women and men vulnerable to developing several serious health conditions:

Starting bioidentical HRT sooner to avoid prolonged hormone deficiencies boosts essential protection against these and other age-related diseases.

Supporting a healthy metabolism and figure

The metabolic slowdown and weight gain plaguing many women and men over 40 is not an inevitable consequence of normal aging. Low testosterone, estrogen and thyroid hormone often drive much of this frustrating weight creep by:

Restoring a more youthful hormone balance helps reverse this tendency to gain abdominal fat and lose muscle tone that defines the "middle-age spread." HRT enhances the ability to achieve long-term weight control and fitness goals that support optimal wellness and quality of life.
