bhrt for MEN

As men pass the age of 30, they begin producing less testosterone. This decline in hormone production (called andropause) is gradual, occurring over several decades. In fact, testosterone levels drop by about 10% per decade.

When there is a rapid decline, especially in a man with a pre-existing borderline low testosterone level, symptoms may occur sooner than expected and be a cause for concern.

If you answered 'Yes' to 3 or more questions above it is likely that you are experiencing 'Low T', and would benefit from Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Treatment.

  • Increase in energy & resilience
  • Improved mood & sleep
  • Boost in sexual drive & libido
  • Increase in muscular strength and body tone
  • Reduction in body fat
  • Decrease in anxiety

Frequently Asked Questions

back

Estradiol: The primary female sex hormone. It's often used to relieve symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood swings. It also reduces the risk of heart disease, aids in maintaining bone density, and promoting healthy skin and hair.

Progesterone: Progesterone plays a key role in regulating the menstrual cycle and supporting pregnancy. It's commonly used in BHRT to balance the effects of estrogen and prevent endometrial hyperplasia in women who still have a uterus. It also helps prevent osteoporosis, promotes healthy sleep and supports the beneficial effects of estrogen on the cardiovascular system

Testosterone: While primarily known as a male hormone, testosterone also plays important roles in women's health, including maintaining libido, bone density, and muscle mass. Bioidentical testosterone may be used in women with low testosterone levels to improve symptoms such as low sex drive and fatigue.

DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone): This hormone is produced by the adrenal glands and is a precursor to both estrogen and testosterone. Bioidentical DHEA supplements are sometimes used to support hormone balance and overall well-being.

Thyroid hormones: Bioidentical forms of thyroid hormones, such as levothyroxine (T4) and liothyronine (T3), are used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones

WHAT ARE TYPICAL BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES?

BHRT is a treatment approach that uses bioidentical forms of testosterone (identical in molecular structure to your own endogenous testosterone) to optimize hormone levels so you can reclaim your vitality, energy levels and sex drive.

Because your body can't tell whether the hormones came from your testes or the pharmacy, BHRT is arguably safer than synthetic testosterone medications merely mimicking the function of testosterone. 

There are many studies over the last 30 years that have shown BHRT as a safe and effective strategy for treating hormone imbalances – provided that appropriate hormone testing is used to individualize your dose to your specific needs.

HOW DOES BHRT HELP MEN WHO ARE EXPERIENCING LOW TESTOSTERONE?

back

Despite risks and benefits inherent in any treatment, hormone replacement therapy offers significant advantages, particularly for women nearing menopause.

Extensive research confirms the safety and effectiveness of hormones, with bioidentical options emerging as the preferred choice.

Compared to synthetic alternatives, bioidentical hormones present a safer, more efficacious solution for managing hormone-related symptoms and conditions.

We do not bill your insurance for office visits. BHRT/Functional/Integrative Medicines are typically not covered by insurance providers.

 We choose not to bill through insurance to provide you with the best care, allowing us to do our job more thoroughly. We don't have insurance mandates, requiring charting demands and time restrictions which interfere with your quality of care.

 A recurring theme is that you do not feel that you have the adequate amount of time with your primary provider to address all your concerns. We can bill your insurance for certain labs but cannot guarantee that they will cover them.

 We take the following payment types: Cash, Credit/Debit card, FSA, HSA and CareCredit.
