Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement
We are used to replacing deficiencies causing disease with accurate testing and bio-identical treatment: insulin for diabetes, Synthroid for hypothyroidism, and electrolytes for documented deficiencies. Why can’t we do the same with hormones?
Our anti-aging program provides hormone replacement with bio-identical rather than lab-formulated commercial hormones. We do recommend and base our replacement strategies on deficiencies confirmed with testing. Whenever possible, we recommend our clients take the DUTCH test or its equivalent for more accurate customization.
Hormone Therapy Benefits
These hormones combat the symptoms of pre-menopause, menopause, and andropause (male menopause).
Ladies, please note that if you are getting Provera, you are getting methylprogesterone, which is not the same as progesterone in terms of chemical formula.
