Many people experience changes in hormones as they age, leading to potentially troublesome symptoms. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can help restore optimal hormone levels and alleviate deficiency issues. Our hormone clinic provides customized bioidentical hormone therapies to North Port residents.
Bioidentical means the hormones have a chemical structure identical to those naturally produced in the human body. They are sustainably derived from yams and soy plants. When correctly balanced and prescribed, bioidentical hormones offer an effective way to supplement age-related declines.
Keep reading to understand the types of hormones we commonly treat and learn if you may be a candidate for hormone optimization.
Understanding which hormones tend to decline with age can help identify potential areas needing support. We specialize in balancing estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid through customized therapy protocols.
Estrogen regulates over 300 functions. With age, levels drop off leading to issues like:
Properly balanced estrogen can alleviate these symptoms and support cardiovascular, bone, brain, and pelvic health.
Progesterone works synergistically with estrogen to regulate menstrual cycles and pregnancy. After menopause, progesterone levels dramatically fall leading to:
Replacement progesterone helps counter the stimulatory impact of estrogen for improved PMS, peri- and postmenopause symptoms.
Testosterone regulates strength, stamina, libido, fertility, and cognition in both sexes. Age-related testosterone decline contributes to:
Balancing testosterone levels alleviates these issues, empowering patients to feel healthy, energetic and mentally sharp.
The thyroid gland produces hormones that control metabolism. With age, thyroid issues emerge contributing to:
Optimizing thyroid function can reverse these symptoms and support whole body wellness.
Properly balancing your hormones can profoundly influence health and vitality. Our expertise in hormone replacement helps patients look and feel their best.
Both women and men can benefit from hormone balancing, especially those exhibiting deficiency symptoms. Ideal patients include:
Undergoing andropause marked by declining:
Testosterone replacement effectively treats andropausal symptoms to restore youthfulness and vitality.
People not actively trying to conceive can likely benefit from properly balanced bioidentical hormones. We also treat women hoping to get pregnant, and those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
We customize treatment plans to each patient’s unique needs and biochemical makeup. Replacement typically starts with minor dosage adjustments and titration as needed over time.
We leverage the latest medical research along with our extensive experience restoring hormones for optimal patient outcomes.
Unlike conventional hormone therapy, bioidentical hormones are custom-compounded to match a person's natural hormone profile. This tailored approach aims to provide physiological levels of hormones and mitigate side effects. However, large robust studies on the long-term safety and efficacy of bioidentical hormones are still lacking.
Sustainably-sourced bioidentical hormones closely match the body’s natural molecular structure. We administer them via:
- Capsules - Sublingual drops - Troches
- Creams - Gels - Patches - Pellets - Testosterone injections - Vaginal inserts
Transdermal bioidentical hormones avoid first-pass liver metabolism for more consistent serum levels. Pellet implants provide sustained-release over 3-6 months.
We thoughtfully prescribe the optimal delivery methods for each patient’s lifestyle and physiology.
Coupling bioidentical hormone replacement with smart lifestyle choices provides full mind, body and spiritual wellbeing. We offer guidance on:
Eat hormone-supporting foods like:
And avoid inflammatory foods like:
- Aerobic activity
- Strength training
- Yoga
- Tai chi
- Massage - Meditation - Journaling - Music therapy - Creative arts
We help patients implement small, sustainable changes for profoundly positive effects on hormones, emotions and cognition. Together with bioidentical replacement, patients report feeling years younger while preventing age-related diseases.
