Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones produced naturally in the human body. As we age, our hormone levels decline, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Replacing these hormones can provide tremendous benefits and allow patients to feel youthful and healthy again.
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical versions of estrogens, progesterone and testosterone that are naturally produced in the human body. Pharmaceutical companies can create these hormones from plant sources to match human hormones exactly.
Bioidentical hormone therapy involves restoring optimal hormone levels using these natural hormones to relieve symptoms of hormonal decline associated with aging and menopause. Customized treatment plans deliver balanced amounts of hormones the body needs.
Restoring hormone levels with bioidenticals offers many advantages:
Estrogen deficiency causes most menopausal symptoms. The most common estrogen bioidenticals are:
The safest, most natural option is estradiol. Balancing estradiol with other hormones provides optimal relief.

For perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, custom mixtures of bioidentical estradiol and progesterone provide safe, effective solutions tailored for the individual.
We prescribe FDA-approved Estrogel topical gels more often than pills to improve absorption. Estradiol relieves hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood issues, sleep disruption and heart concerns. Natural progesterone counters estrogen's effects on the uterus.
Working closely with specialty compounding pharmacies, we also order custom bi-estrogen and tri-estrogen creams, gels and vaginal inserts.
Androgen therapies with DHEA and/or testosterone are frequently added for libido, energy and other benefits. Careful monitoring ensures proper balance with other hormones.
For men over 40, testosterone levels progressively fall, causing energy loss, reduced stamina, decreased muscle mass, weight gain, poor concentration and erectile difficulties.
TRT - testosterone replacement therapy - gets levels back to an optimal range. Increased strength, virility and vitality follow.
Hormone Health Institute provides complete low testosterone diagnosis and treatment incorporating:
We partner with a specialty compounding pharmacy to customize treatments for each man's physiology and lifestyle.
Careful monitoring every 3 months ensures maximum benefits from therapy without overdosing.
Decreased hormone levels cause vague, gradual onset of unpleasant symptoms disrupting quality of life. Consequently, people adjust to undesirable changes and don’t seek treatment promptly. Putting off treatment allows progressive deterioration affecting overall wellness and raising long term health risks.
Initiating therapy quickly, before severe complications set in, enhances response. Optimal outcomes follow proper testing and dosage titrations soon after deficiency surfaces.
Hormone Health Institute streamlines testing and treatments so patients derive benefits without delay.
Bioidentical hormones effectively alleviate deficiency symptoms, yet patients derive further advantages from positive lifestyle changes. Our experts provide guidance on:

Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report preferring them because they more closely mimic the body's own hormones. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to conventional hormone therapy.
