Hormone deficiencies can negatively impact quality of life. Common symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, low libido, and changes in mood. Causes range from normal aging to medical conditions. Getting a proper diagnosis through blood tests is key.
Timely treatment can relieve symptoms and reduce long-term health risks. Replacing deficient hormones can help patients feel like themselves again. Lifestyle changes also support treatment. Local resources like labs, spas, and nature trails promote wellness.
HRT replaces hormones the body no longer makes in adequate amounts. It can:

Estrogen therapy may help strengthen women's bones and reduce osteoporosis risk after menopause. However, adding testosterone provides no additional bone strengthening while increasing side effects, according to recent research. Focusing estrogen alone maximizes benefits while minimizing risks.
Beginning HRT starts with a consultation, medical history, physical exam, and bloodwork. Initial testing establishes a baseline to compare future hormone levels. We require general health labs plus sex-specific hormone panels.
After reviewing results and medical records, we create a customized treatment plan. Therapy begins with the lowest effective dose, increasing gradually until symptom relief or target ranges are met. Follow up is scheduled at regular intervals to assess progress and adjust dosing.
We also recommend supplements like vitamin D, zinc, and DHEA to support healthy hormone levels. Guidance on nutrition, fitness, and stress reduction helps patients achieve maximum benefits from treatment.
