Hormone therapy can provide relief from unpleasant symptoms and improve quality of life when hormones become imbalanced due to aging or medical conditions. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) restores hormones to healthy levels, while hormone optimization therapy fine-tunes hormones for optimal functioning. Our experienced hormone therapy doctors offer both therapy options to help patients feel their best.
Recognizing the signs of hormone imbalance early on allows for prompt treatment to relieve symptoms. Common red flags include:
If experiencing several of these symptoms, hormone testing can identify specific imbalances. Once identified, customized treatment gets hormones functioning optimally again.
Correcting hormone imbalances through pharmaceutical or bioidentical hormone therapy provides widespread benefits:
Restoring estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone to youthful levels alleviates disruptive symptoms that interfere with work, relationships, sleep, sexual health, and emotional well-being.
Balanced hormones strengthen immunity, heart health, bone density, brain function and reduces disease risks.
Eliminating hormonal havoc helps energy, mood, sleep quality, mental sharpness and self-confidence. Patients report feeling like themselves again.
With consistent treatment, patients can enjoy later years feeling healthy, active and engaged instead of plagued by hormone imbalance symptoms.
Hormone optimization therapy fine-tunes hormones to achieve peak physical and mental performance. It's ideal for those wanting more than symptom relief.
Correcting hormone deficiencies through timely treatment prevents long-term damage from ongoing hormonal chaos. Reaping these benefits starts with comprehensive hormone blood testing.
Since optimal levels differ between men and women, accurate diagnosis begins with thorough hormone testing tailored to patient symptoms and health history. Testing provides objective data identifying deficiencies and excesses needing correction.
Blood hormone tests directly measure circulating free and total hormone levels in the body for definitive data. Testing multiple hormones simultaneously evaluates overall balance essential for well-being.
At Balance Hormone Clinic, initial testing establishes a hormone baseline while follow-up bloodwork ensures treatment efficacy. We utilize high-quality tests analyzing over 15 key hormones for men and women.
Women's Panels - Estradiol, estrone, estriol, progesterone, DHEA-S, testosterone, cortisol, T3, T4, TSH, FSH, LH
Men's Panels - Testosterone, free and bioavailable testosterone, estradiol, DHEA-S, cortisol, T3, T4, TSH, FSH, LH
Testing also analyzes vitamin D, insulin, A1C, lipids, and inflammatory markers. Deficiencies get addressed alongside hormone therapy for optimal response.
At Balance Hormone Clinic, initial bloodwork combined with a complete history and exam determines specific therapies and dosages to restore hormonal health. Follow-up testing ensures treatment efficacy with numbers, not just symptoms, to rely on.
After thorough diagnosis, Balance Hormone Clinic physicians develop a personalized protocol utilizing the optimal therapies and dosages to meet patient needs and preferences.
Bioidentical hormone therapy utilizes hormones structurally identical to those naturally occurring in the human body to properly communicate with receptors and tissues. Therapy options include:
Made from plant sources, bioidentical hormones have the same effects in the body as endogenous hormones without negative synthetic hormone side effects. Compounded for precision dosing, they come as oral tablets, transdermal creams, injectable pellets, and vaginal suppositories.
Ideal for long-term use, they alleviate symptoms while protecting against bone loss, heart disease, and neurological decline. Follow-up testing confirms circulating levels restore to optimal.
For patients wanting more than symptom relief, hormone optimization therapy utilizes bioidentical hormones, peptides, nutrients, and medications tailored to the individual to enhance physical and mental functioning.
Working beyond alleviating deficiencies, hormone optimizing therapy taps into the regenerative capacity of hormones fine-tuned for peak performance, recovery, and longevity.
Benefits include -
Follow-up testing confirms individualized therapies achieve prime hormone levels based on evolving science.
Certain nutritional compounds and antioxidants play integral roles in hormone production and activity. Key examples include:
Based on history and testing, nutritional therapies get incorporated into Balance Hormone Clinic treatment plans as needed for best outcomes. Follow-up testing verifies progress.

Attempting to ignore frustrating menopausal and andropausal symptoms often worsens problems in the long run. As deficiencies deepen, patients risk developing associated mood disorders, sexual dysfunction, heart disease, osteoporosis, obesity, and dementia.
In women, plummeting estrogen and progesterone over years without treatment causes progressive genitourinary tract atrophy and dryness interfering with sexual activity and enjoyment. Vaginal thinning also raises recurrent infection risks needing antibiotics or surgery.
Age-related testosterone decline in men impairs strength, muscle mass, fat burning, sexual functioning, and motivation which gradually worsens without correction. Additionally, deficient hormone levels enable advancing disease processes throughout the body plus brain.
The take away? Early identification and prompt treatment provides optimal results. The longer hormone chaos continues unchecked, the more entrenched symptoms become taking higher dosages and longer duration for recovery. Additionally, prolonged deficiencies cause unnecessary damage complicating future health.
At the first bothersome symptoms suggesting hormonal changes, proactive testing and follow-up treatment provides both prompt relief and long-term protection.
