Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, hormone levels decline causing unpleasant symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones with bioidentical versions can effectively relieve symptoms and restore wellness. Renew Hormone Institute specializes in customized bioidentical hormone therapy, using natural plant-based hormones uniquely tailored to each patient's needs.
Imbalanced hormone levels manifest in various ways. Identifying symptoms is key for prompt treatment.
- Hot flashes - Night sweats - Vaginal dryness - Decreased libido - Emotional changes - Sleep problems - Weight gain - Fatigue
- Loss of muscle mass - Increased body fat - Decreased libido - Erectile dysfunction - Depression - Loss of motivation - Difficulty concentrating - Irritability
Symptoms significantly lower quality of life. The good news - bioidentical hormone therapy can effectively relieve symptoms when tailored appropriately for each unique physiology.
Accurately assessing hormone levels through blood, saliva or urine tests is crucial prior to treatment. Key hormones evaluated:
- Estrogen - Progesterone - Testosterone - Thyroid
- Testosterone - Estrogen - Thyroid
Levels outside optimal ranges indicate hormone imbalance. Renew Hormone Institute will thoroughly evaluate your hormone panel and symptoms to create a customized treatment plan.
Balancing hormones with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy provides tremendous benefits:
- Reduces hot flashes/night sweats - Restores healthy libido - Improves sleep - Alleviates vaginal dryness - Stabilizes moods - Normalizes weight - Restores energy
- Improves libido/sexual function - Builds muscle mass - Increases energy/vitality - Sharpen mental clarity - Boosts motivation - Reduces belly fat - Balances mood
In addition to relieving uncomfortable symptoms, balanced hormones optimize overall health and vitality.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Large, long-term studies are still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits of bioidentical estrogen and progesterone compared to traditional hormone therapy.
Renew Hormone Institute stands out with highly customized bioidentical hormones tailored to each patient’s physiology and hormone levels using high quality ingredients.
We specialize in custom compounding, using plant-derived hormones estrogen and testosterone - not synthetic - precisely matched to patient deficiency levels for optimal restoration.
Hormones available in oral tablets, sublingual drops, topical creams or injectables for maximum absorption and patient comfort.
We don’t just prescribe hormones. Our experts closely monitor progress with follow up blood tests and exams to ensure hormones remain in optimal balance.
With treatment guided by patient feedback and labwork, Renew Hormone Institute safely balances hormones for transformative results.
Hormone levels decline slowly over time. Imbalances often develop gradually without overt symptoms - making clinical evaluation important. Identifying and correcting deficiencies early is key for protecting long term health.
Balanced estrogen and testosterone confer wide ranging protective effects:
For women: - Reduces risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures - Lowers heart attack/stroke risk - Protects brain health
For men: - Wards off heart disease - Maintains bone strength - Preserves mental acuity
By preventing deterioration of health, restoring hormones earlier optimizes vitality throughout life.
As hormone deficits worsen over years, so do unpleasant symptoms - significantly eroding quality of life. Taking action promptly with bioidentical therapy can halt this downward spiral to feel restored and vibrant again.
Research shows hormone imbalance precedes disease. Therefore, early detection and timely treatment provides the best opportunity for preventing long term health decline and enjoying lasting wellness. Renew Hormone Institute’ experts will partner with you on this important health journey.
Bioidentical hormones effectively restore balance. Certain lifestyle factors also profoundly impact hormone health:
Nutrition: Consuming anti-inflammatory whole foods rich in vitamins and minerals provides the raw ingredients for hormone production while lowering disease-promoting inflammation.
Exercise: Regular activity stimulates hormone release and reduces excess body fat which converts hormones into unwanted forms. Aim for 30 minutes daily. Walking remains one of the best exercises.
Stress Management: Chronic stress elevates cortisol which inhibits hormone synthesis and triggers weight gain. Actively relax with meditation, yoga, deep breathing.
Quality Sleep: Hormones rely on consistent robust sleep. Prioritize at least 7-8 hours nightly by establishing a relaxing bedtime routine.
Vitamin D: Low vitamin D impairs hormone balance. Get regular safe sun exposure. Most need 2000-5000 IU vitamin D3 supplementation depending on blood levels.
Healthy Weight: Excess body fat disturbs hormone metabolism. Maintaining healthy weight supports optimal hormone function.
