Women

Feeling worn out by the end of each day can make finding a solution to restore your energy and vitality seem impossible. We're here to assure you that you deserve to feel your best every single day.

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women

Every woman is born with a unique set of specialized cells in her ovaries. As she reaches puberty, these follicular cells, which start at around 300,000, begin to decrease. Of this reduced number, approximately 600 cells play a crucial role in hormone production and compete for ovulation each month. As women age, the number of these vital cells continues to decline, leading to various symptoms of hormonal imbalances and deficiencies.

Due to this natural decline in follicular cells, women can experience a wide range of hormonal issues, including imbalances in testosterone, thyroid, estrogen, and progesterone levels. Fortunately, these imbalances can be effectively addressed with BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy). BHRT can provide relief from weight issues, fatigue, trouble sleeping, hair loss, and many other common problems, helping women restore their hormonal health and overall well-being.

Women have testosterone, too.

Men have 10 to 20 times higher levels of testosterone than women. Nonetheless, even this small amount of testosterone in women is essential for maintaining sexual function and healthy bladder and vaginal function.

One prevalent issue in young women is low levels of testosterone, which may come as a surprise since women's testosterone levels decrease earlier than men's and continue to decline significantly after menopause, typically around age 21.

When used in small, physiologic doses with monitoring of testosterone blood levels, testosterone in women is well tolerated. High doses must be avoided as they can cause facial hair, scalp hair loss, voice deepening, and acne. Just like men, women should not be started on testosterone replacement without a careful endocrine evaluation to determine if it will provide a health benefit.
