Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is an effective treatment for relieving unpleasant menopause symptoms and correcting hormone imbalances that occur with aging. Optimal Hormone Wellness Center specializes in customized BHRT regimens to help patients achieve optimal health and wellbeing. Our experienced doctors utilize state-of-the-art lab testing and FDA-approved hormones to develop personalized treatment plans.
There are several factors that can lead to declining hormones and associated symptoms:
Hormone production slows down and becomes less efficient as part of the natural aging process. Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels start to decline around age 30 and can drop sharply during perimenopause and menopause. Lower hormone levels cause unpleasant symptoms and health risks.
Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. The ovaries stop releasing eggs and produce much less estrogen and progesterone. This hormone withdrawal causes bothersome menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disruption, and vaginal dryness.
Certain medical conditions like pituitary gland dysfunction, chronic illnesses, or endocrine disorders can impair hormone production. Traumatic brain injuries and chemotherapy treatment may also disrupt normal hormone balance.
Poor diet, lack of exercise, chronic stress, and exposure to hormone-disrupting chemicals can cause hormonal imbalance. Making positive lifestyle modifications can help support healthy hormone levels.
Recognizing the signs of hormone imbalance is key to seeking appropriate treatment. Common symptoms associated with declining sex hormones include:
Bioidentical hormone replacement offers an effective way to correct hormone deficiencies and relieve associated symptoms. Optimal Hormone Wellness Center customizes treatment based on the patient’s unique hormonal needs and health profile. Reasons patients pursue BHRT include:
Bioidentical estrogen and progesterone therapy provides safe and natural relief for hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, sleep disruption, and other quality-of-life impacting menopausal symptoms.
Lab testing identifies patient’s specific hormone deficiencies and imbalances. Our doctors then develop a personalized regimen using FDA-approved bioidentical hormones to restore optimal hormone levels.
By correcting hormone deficiencies that disrupt sleep, mood, and energy levels, many patients report experiencing increased energy, improved mental sharpness and productivity, and better overall wellbeing on hormone replacement protocols.
Balancing key hormones contributes to improved mood regulation, reduced anxiety and irritability, more stable emotions, and an overall greater sense of wellbeing.
Proper hormone balance promotes good health as we age. BHRT enhances bone and heart health, weight management, sexual function, sleep quality, skin and hair health, and physical vitality.
There are important basics about hormone therapy that patients should understand:
Bioidentical hormones have a chemical structure identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. They are extracted from plants and custom-formulated to match unique hormone molecules like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. since bioidentical hormones are molecularly identical to the body’s own hormones, they offer excellent treatment tolerability.
Optimal Hormone Wellness Center provides bioidentical hormones in easy to use forms: oral capsules, sublingual tablets, topical gels or creams. Pellet inserts placed under the skin offer another option for sustained hormone release over several route of administration is tailored to each patient’s treatment goals and preferences.
Through specialized lab testing, our practitioners create unique treatment protocols addressing each patient's distinctive hormone deficiencies and imbalances.

Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms.

More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to conventional hormone therapy.
