Hormone therapy aims to supplement hormones that are deficient or lacking in the body. It can alleviate unpleasant symptoms of hormonal changes and restore optimal physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
Treatment involves replacing hormones to reach normal healthy physiological levels either through medications, gels, or injections. Ongoing blood work helps determine and adjust dosing based on the patient's individual needs.
Benefits of balancing hormones with properly prescribed therapy by a hormone specialist can be remarkable and wide-ranging.
Fluctuating or declining hormone levels happen to most men and women due to various reasons, such as aging, excess weight, high stress, thyroid issues, and other medical conditions. This often negatively impacts one's quality of life. Let's look closer at the most prevalent deficiencies:
After age 30, testosterone production in men starts slowly declining by roughly 1% per year. But now, more younger men suffer from low T levels.
Symptoms may include:
Without adequate amounts of the main male sex hormone testosterone, men cannot feel or function at their best.
Menopause marks the end of a woman's reproductive years with the cessation of menstrual periods. It is caused by estrogen depletion and typically occurs at ages 45-55.
Common symptoms encompass:
Fluctuating levels of reproductive hormones - estrogen, progesterone, testosterone - bring about these perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms that largely disturb women's normal wellbeing.
Restoring balance with hormonal therapy can effectively ease or resolve them.
Deficiencies or imbalances in major regulatory hormones produced by glands - thyroid, adrenal glands, pancreas - can also cause adverse symptoms diminishing people's health, vitality, and enjoyment of life at any age.
Thyroid disorders, diabetes, adrenal fatigue syndrome, PCOS, and other endocrine problems may significantly affect wellness too.
Optimizing these hormones along with sex hormones allows patients to thrive and live life to the fullest.
Experiencing unpleasant symptoms is not enough for the diagnosis of hormone imbalance or deficiency. Proper lab testing is crucial for unveiling issues with the endocrine system.
Initial standard blood work to screen for hormonal dysregulation must include:
Other saliva tests can also identify abnormal cortisol patterns related to high stress or adrenal fatigue.
Appropriate interpretation of lab test results is key for detecting hormonal issues and recommending suitable treatment.

Patients report improvements in all aspects of health, positive mood, increased vigor, strong libido, enhanced work productivity, weight optimization, and more lively interaction with partners, family, and friends.
