Hormones are powerful chemical messengers that travel through the bloodstream, directing the function of tissues and organs. They influence almost every cell and system in the body. Hormones like testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA and others must remain in delicate balance for optimal physical and mental health.
When hormones become imbalanced, even slightly, you may experience symptoms like:
If left untreated, hormone deficiency can increase your risk for various diseases. Men with low testosterone face higher rates of obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, heart disease and stroke.
Treating hormone imbalances promptly is critical for preserving vitality, longevity and quality of life. Rebalancing key hormones can provide life-changing benefits.
Hormone levels naturally decline with age, but many lifestyle factors also impact hormones:
Symptoms of hormone deficiency often develop gradually. Many people confuse their symptoms with “normal aging,” not realizing treatment may significantly improve their health and wellbeing.
Diagnosing hormone deficiency requires specialized blood, saliva or urine tests. Ranges considered “normal” may still be inadequate for you to feel your best. Optimizing hormones based on your unique biochemistry is key.
The physicians at Renewed Balance Clinic specialize in advanced hormone testing and custom treatment plans to restore optimal hormonal balance for men and women.
Bioidentical hormone therapy involves supplementing your body’s naturally declining hormones to achieve a more youthful balance.
Restoring hormones to optimal levels provides wide-ranging health and quality of life enhancing benefits:
Balancing key hormones can help you look and feel 5-10 years younger, while reducing risk for obesity, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis and dementia.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the testosterone, estrogen, progesterone and other hormones produced naturally in your body. Your cells readily recognize and utilize bioidentical hormones.
Synthetics like Provera, Premarin and Prempro are not molecularly identical. These drugs tend to create abnormal hormone levels in the body with unpredictable effects.
Studies show bioidentical hormones are safer and more effective than synthetic replacements. Renewed Balance Clinic custom-blends pharmaceutical-grade bioidentical hormones tailored to your needs.
There are different methods to deliver bioidentical hormones:
Renewed Balance Clinic physicians determine the optimal hormones and delivery methods for your body and lifestyle. We continually monitor your hormone levels and adjust dosages to keep your key biomarkers balanced over months and years.
By age 50, most men start experiencing declining energy, strength, stamina and mental sharpness. Many develop weight gain, emotional changes and shrinking muscle mass due to waning testosterone.
Testosterone deficiency poses serious health risks including diabetes, heart attack, stroke, osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s disease. It also impairs sexual desire and performance.
Male hormone replacement therapy can reverse the negatives effects of testosterone decline using bioidentical testosterone and other hormones tailored to the individual.
There is tremendous variation in what constitutes “normal” or “low” testosterone levels. Ranges failing to account for age and symptoms are misleading. Renewed Balance Clinic physicians determine optimal testosterone levels for you.
Symptoms of low testosterone:
Blood tests, medical history, genetics, lifestyle and symptoms guide precise hormone balancing.
Testosterone therapy alleviates frustrating “low-T” symptoms, restoring strength, energy, lean muscle mass, mental acuity and sex drive.
Balanced testosterone levels deliver wide-spanning health benefits:
We tailor testosterone replacement to your unique needs through:
Lifestyle, diet and exercise enhance results. Follow-up blood testing ensures optimized dosing.
Like menopause, andropause is the consequence of declining hormones. Key hormones fall out of harmony causing frustrating symptoms.
Hormone optimization for women involves careful balancing of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA and thyroid to restore wellbeing.
Perimenopause is the 2-10 year transition phase leading up to menopause when periods become irregular as ovulation declines. Menopause occurs following one year without periods around age 50.
Estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate and drop dramatically during the menopausal transition as the ovaries shut down egg production. This hormone rollercoaster underlies common symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, weight gain, sleep disruption, depression and anxiety.
Restoring hormonal balance relieves symptoms and safeguards long term health.
Bioidentical estrogen and progesterone therapy alleviate uncomfortable symptoms allowing women to enjoy life fully throughout perimenopause and beyond.
Balancing these key hormones also:
Estrogen therapy has been shown to improve verbal memory and reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease in postmenopausal women. Multiple studies found that women who took estrogen after menopause performed better on tests of verbal memory compared to women who did not take hormones.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy provides a critical foundation for vitality. Certain lifestyle measures magnify benefits.
Following an anti-inflammatory diet high in produce, healthy fats and clean protein supports hormone balance. Specific nutrients like zinc, magnesium, vitamin D and adaptogens also help modulate hormones.
We provide nutritional guidance tailored to your needs.
Regular exercise stimulates testosterone production and controls estrogen metabolism. Just 30 minutes daily provides excellent hormone balancing and weight management.
Renewed Balance Clinic customizes fitness plans complementing your therapy. We also offer onsite bootcamp classes.
Chronic stress elevates cortisol which inhibits testosterone and unbalances other hormones. Relaxation practices like yoga, deep breathing, massage and mindfulness meditation help reverse high stress’s adverse impacts.
We teach patients stress reduction techniques and recommend local resources.
Renewed Balance Clinic physicians possess specialized expertise in precision hormone testing, interpretation and custom treatment plans. We provide cutting-edge therapies with an emphasis on the latest science and your unique needs.
Our functional, integrated care addresses the interplay between hormones, nutrition, exercise, stress, environment, genetics and symptoms. We consider bioidentical hormones just one element of a comprehensive lifestyle, diet and supplement optimization process.
We closely monitor therapy with follow-up testing and dosage titration to continually balance your hormones as your body changes across the lifespan.
Renewed Balance Clinic offers transformational hormone replacement services to help you look and feel your best, prevent disease, and slow aging.
We look forward to serving your hormone optimization needs!
