Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) has become an extremely popular option for both women and men looking to restore optimal hormone levels. As we age or go through hormonal changes, deficiencies can occur causing undesirable symptoms. Replacing these hormones can provide incredible health and wellness benefits.
Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. That makes them easily recognizable and well-tolerated, unlike synthetic hormone alternatives. Some of the major hormones replaced through bioidentical hormone therapy include:
Replacing deficient hormones can resolve unpleasant symptoms and restore one's vitality. Our experienced practitioners develop fully customized treatment plans with high-quality bioidentical hormone pellets designed specifically for your needs.
The first step is having your hormone levels accurately tested. Imbalances can develop slowly over time and be difficult to recognize. Common symptoms indicating potential deficiencies include:
Diagnostic lab testing provides objective data, enabling our practitioners to catch deficiencies early on before they progress. We utilize advanced testing methods through trusted laboratories providing comprehensive hormone panels. Accurately assessing your individual hormone levels allows us to develop truly customized treatment plans.
Once a hormone imbalance is confirmed through testing, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy utilizing hormones identical to those produced in the human body can correct deficiencies and get you feeling like yourself again.
Bioidentical hormones are man-made from plant sources and are indistinguishable at a molecular level from endogenous human hormones. That makes them easily recognized and utilized by hormone receptors throughout the body just like your innate hormones. They are generally derived from two key sources:
This natural plant-based origin makes bioidentical hormones gentler with fewer side effects compared to traditional synthetic hormone replacement therapy.
There are multiple methods available for effectively administering bioidentical hormones:
Bioidentical hormone pellets placed under the skin are the most convenient and precise method. The hormones are gradually released providing steady circulatory levels over several months. This avoids the hormone fluctuations seen with traditional estrogen/progestin pills and topical creams. Pellets placed under local anesthesia take just minutes and avoid the hassle of daily administration.
Every patient has a unique clinical presentation and lab testing hormone profile. We carefully evaluate your specific needs and seamlessly coordinate care with your primary care provider and any relevant specialists. Custom treatment plans are developed involving the precise combination and dosing of bioidentical hormones to restore optimal balance tailored to your physiology and lifestyle. Follow-up lab testing and symptom monitoring ensure treatment effectiveness. We also provide nutritional counseling and wellness planning focused on diet, exercise, stress management and healthy lifestyle optimization for supporting hormone health.

Unlike conventional hormone therapy, bioidentical hormones have a chemical structure identical to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. This allows them to bind more precisely with receptors and potentially result in fewer side effects, though more research is still needed to confirm long-term safety and efficacy.
Testosterone is popularly considered the “male” hormone. However, women also produce testosterone in their ovaries and adrenal glands playing integral regulatory roles across bodily systems. Age-related testosterone decline occurs in both men and women causing undesirable signs and symptoms that replacement can resolve.
Careful evaluation of signs and symptoms combined with accurate lab testing enables detecting androgen deficiency early when treatment is most effective.
Restoring healthy testosterone levels can reverse troublesome symptoms improving vitality along with physical, mental and sexual health. Customized treatment regimens may utilize:
These bioidentical options allow flexibility catered to your unique needs. Follow-up testing ensures ideal testosterone levels are achieved and maintained long-term for optimized wellness. Supportive nutritional counseling protects hormone health.

The small butterfly-shaped thyroid gland produces hormones integral to regular functioning of nearly all bodily systems. Imbalances cause wide-ranging symptoms that thyroid hormone replacement can resolve when properly managed.
Catching thyroid dysfunction early is key before symptoms progress. Precise advanced testing assessing TSH, free T4, free T3, reverse T3, and antibodies provides comprehensive data on thyroid status. Customized bioidentical thyroid replacement protocols can then optimize levels for resolving deficiency signs.
Traditional synthetic thyroid medications contain T4 only, differing from the T4 and T3 produced by the thyroid gland. We often formulate customized bioidentical regimens containing both T4 and T3 for improved treatment effects. Options include:
These bioidentical thyroid options work synergistically to optimize thyroid function and reverse associated deficiency symptoms. Follow-up testing tracks progress ensuring treatment effectiveness is maximized. Lifestyle optimization further supports healthy thyroid status.
Balanced thyroid function is vital for sustaining energy, cognitive clarity, metabolic rate, and overall wellness. Call today if experiencing potential symptoms of thyroid dysfunction. Proper testing and bioidentical thyroid replacement can resolve hormonal imbalance when conventionally treated cases remain unresolved.
DHEA is an androgen precursor the adrenal glands use to produce other key hormones. DHEA levels normally peak in our 20’s-30’s followed by gradual age-related decline. Low DHEA manifests in undesirable symptoms replacement can effectively improve.
Assessing clinical presentation and precise lab testing enables detecting when DHEA replacement may be beneficial. Customized treatment protocols designed around your specific needs can help resolve deficiency symptoms and support healthy aging.
Restoring DHEA levels provides wide-ranging wellness benefits:
Follow-up testing tracks progress ensuring DHEA therapy achieves ideal circulating androgen levels customized around your needs. Lifestyle optimization provides added support.

Melatonin is a hormone released each night by the pineal gland driving our natural sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin levels normally decline with age often causing disrupted sleep. Appropriately-timed melatonin supplementation can reestablish healthy sleep patterns for numerous benefits.
Falling melatonin levels contribute to age-related sleep issues like:
Disrupted sleep has extensive negative impacts including:
Careful evaluation determines when melatonin replacement may improve sleep quality.
Precisely-timed low-dose melatonin supplementation can reestablish healthy sleep cycles especially for those with low endogenous melatonin levels. Our practitioners design treatment protocols customized around your needs which may include:
