Many individuals experience a decline in key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and more as they age. This can lead to unpleasant symptoms like fatigue, low libido, hot flashes, and weight gain. Getting tested and starting bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) at facilities like Renew Medical HRT Clinic helps restore optimal hormone levels and relieve deficiency signs.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the ones your body produces naturally. They are often derived from plant sources and custom-compounded in a lab. When administered properly under a specialist's care, they can provide remarkable benefits without the downsides of synthetic hormone drugs.
Hormone levels vary for many reasons. The most frequent causes of deficiency include:
If your blood tests show chronically low hormones, BHRT can help correct the underlying imbalance safely under a practitioner's guidance.
Ignoring hormone deficiency signs comes with substantial long term health risks. Symptoms tend to slowly worsen over months and years, eventually impacting one's quality of life.
The exact symptoms depend on which hormones are low. But general signs of imbalance may include:
Restoring balance with BHRT alleviates these symptoms and enhances overall wellness. Timing is important, as prolonged deficiency causes cumulative damage. We recommend getting tested at the first signs of decline.
Bioidentical hormone replacement employs natural hormones identical to those your body produces. This makes them safer and more easily metabolized than synthetic alternatives.
There are two primary methods of administering BHRT:
The method chosen depends on your hormone profile, lifestyle factors, and personal preference. We utilize both at Renew Medical HRT Clinic depending on each patient's needs.
Though exact protocols vary, these treatments commonly address:
Other hormones like human growth hormone, melatonin, oxytocin or serotonin may also be supplemented to address anti-aging, sleep, bonding or mood concerns.

Results vary based on one’s unique needs, lifestyle habits, and consistency with treatment. But most patients see profound benefits within the first few months when hormones are restored to more youthful ranges.
The exact combination of bioidentical hormones prescribed depends on each patient's individual biochemistry and symptoms.
But standard protocols often include:
Testosterone falls about 1-2% each year in men after age 35. Low levels contribute to fatigue, mental dullness, sexual issues, muscle loss, weight gain, anxiety, atherosclerosis and shortened lifespan.
Benefits of testosterone therapy (TRT) for men may include:
Renew Medical HRT Clinic offers cutting edge testosterone therapy including:
We also address lifestyle factors - like fitness, nutrition and stress reduction - that optimize hormones for peak male performance.

Bioidentical hormones are not actually identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. They are synthesized from plant sources to be structurally similar, but slight differences mean they may not have precisely the same effects as endogenous hormones. Nonetheless, some research indicates comparable benefits to conventional hormone therapy.
