What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy is used to balance hormone levels in women and men. With BHRT, your hormone levels can return to healthy levels.

What are Bioidentical Hormones?

Bioidentical hormones have molecular structure which is identical to the hormones produced naturally by the human body. This means that supplementation with bioidentical hormones offers fewer side-effects than those of synthetic hormones. Bioidentical hormones are created from natural sources like yams and soy.

Diagnosing Hormone Imbalances with Hormone Level Testing

To determine your hormone levels, Dr. Williams may use one of several hormone tests (saliva, blood serum, blood) available to him. The hormone tests will help identify any hormonal imbalance you might be having.

Types of Hormone Therapy

Testosterone hormone therapy may help your cardiovascular health, lower your risk of mental disorders such as Alzheimer’s, and increases libido in men and women.

Estrogen and progestogen are important hormones for sexual function. Estrogen replacement therapy may correct symptoms of menopause.

Human Growth Hormone (HGH) therapy may help the body heal and recover more quickly. Also known as somatotropin, HGH stimulates growth and cell reproduction and may improve your immune function, help regrow hair, and help maintain your vital organs.

Other hormones that can be supplemented with BHRT include:

• DHEA: may help decrease the effects of aging, reduce insulin resistance, and decrease abdominal fat
• Thyroid hormone: T3 and T4 provide your cells with energy, and may treat symptoms of hypothyroidism, such as joint pain, low body temperature, and insomnia
• Cortisol: the only hormone that increases with age, low levels of this stress hormone can cause extreme fatigue
• Oxytocin: this hormone increases sexual arousal and feelings of love and happiness

Hormone Delivery Methods

BHRT can be administered through the following methods:

• Gel and cream applied daily at home
• Daily pills are often used for estrogen and the progesterone form progestin
• Shots delivered into the muscle weekly
• Pellets placed under your skin to provide continuous delivery for months

Dr. Williams will help you determine which delivery method is best for you, as well as the dose required.
