Initially … What Are Hormones?
The human body has more than a trillion cells that depend on a sensitive balance of hormones to help carry out a multitude of functions. Hormones act as chemical messengers in the body. When these messengers become impaired, cellular function crashes and your body’s systems can no longer perform as it should. Many of the symptoms linked with hormone imbalance are due to troubles at the cellular level.
These troubles can affect every function in your body, including the control of your sleep/wake cycle, management of moods, and even adjustment of your body temperature—just to name a few. Basically, your hormones keep everything in check. Therefore, even one hormone falls out of balance; the entire system can crumble, and you begin to encounter the classic symptoms of aging, such as weight gain, low libido, hair loss, fatigue, and lack of energy.
With the assistance of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy from Restorative Wellness MD, you can give a correct assessment of your hormone levels using advanced hormone testing techniques. Moreover, you receive a personalized treatment plan based on your lab values, symptoms, medical history, environmental factors, and how your life has changed since your symptoms started.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) vs. Conventional Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Opting for a more organic hormone regimen such as bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (as opposed to a synthetic hormone replacement therapy) gives patients an overall enhanced bioidentical hormone experience without disagreeable reactions and only mild side effects. Some of the key rewards of using bioidentical hormones include:
- Improved muscle mass and strength*
- Boosted cognitive function*
- Enhanced lipid levels*
- Strengthened stamina*
- Reduction in hot flashes and vaginal dryness*
- Reduced risk of osteoporosis*
- Restoration of bone strength*
- Relief from sleeplessness*
What Causes Hormonal Imbalance?
While in pursuit of optimal hormone levels, natural hormone levels can turn out to be unstable due to toxic exposures, the aging process, or a health illness. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is a functional solution for replacing hormones that the body is not able to generate on its own.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Women who have or are experiencing perimenopause, menopause or post-menopause frequently experience a host of uncomfortable symptoms coupled with hormone imbalance. Throughout these difficult transitions, levels can vary substantially resulting in high testosterone in women (as well as low testosterone in women!), progesterone deficits, estrogen dominance, and thyroid symptoms in women can manifest too. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can rebuild natural hormone balance and women can expect some very constructive and noteworthy benefits such as:
- Relief from menopausal symptoms*
- Decreased hot flashes*
- Improved libido*
- Boosted brain function*
- Reduced risk of osteoporosis*
- Enriched skin and muscle tone*
Benefits of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Patients have reported substantial improvements in their wellbeing and quality of life following bioidentical hormone replacement treatment. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy concentrates on a number of particular conditions related to aging such as perimenopause, menopause, andropause, and the accompanying indications of hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, weight gain, fatigue, and depression. Men and women coping with various forms of hormone imbalance like anxiety, hypothyroidism, mood swings, and hair loss, benefit above all from an extensive treatment plan created by a hormone doctor specifically trained in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy procedures.
Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Therapy
The most beneficial way to receive bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is by means of pellet therapy. Bioidentical hormone pellet therapy involves the insertion of natural hormone pellets into the soft fatty tissue under the skin through a minimally invasive, concise in-office procedure. Bioidentical hormone pellets are around the size of a grain of rice and made with bioidentical testosterone and/or estrogen, and a natural cholesterol binder. Hormone pellets are classically inserted just under the beltline in the upper buttocks. Pellets are made with a specific density and firmness, so they dissolve over a 3 to 4-month timeframe, gradually. As the pellets dissolve, hormones are absorbed into the system via a steady stream, in a way that carefully imitates the own body’s release of hormones.
Other bioidentical hormone methods like hormone gels, creams, or pills, cannot compare to the effectiveness of hormone pellet therapy for management of menopause and andropause symptoms, weight gain, low libido, fatigue, and many additional symptoms caused by hormonal imbalance. Even though there are a lot of complexities in managing hormone therapy, pellet therapy is the cornerstone of Dr. Kissel and Dr. Poje’s Cincinnati-based bioidentical hormone replacement therapy practice.
Peak hormone levels can help:
- Improve bone density*
- Build lean muscle mass*
- Lose weight*
- Jump-start your sex drive*
- Reduce hot flashes and night sweats*
- Improve memory and cognitive function*
Since 1938, testosterone pellets have been used as a convenient, and consistent form of bioidentical hormone replacement. Pellets in women typically last 3-4 months, and 4-5 months in men.
