When you start getting older, you might notice you don’t feel like your younger self anymore. Aging can cause a long list of symptoms like fatigue, reduced sexual performance, and weight gain. The aging process is not easy on most people, but you can get your vitality back.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is a type of hormone therapy that infuses your body with energy. The unpleasant symptoms you feel could be replaced by youthfulness and better performance—both in the bedroom and in everyday life.
Read on to learn more about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and how it can change your life.
Symptoms of Low Sex Hormone Levels
You may not be aware that the symptoms you’re experiencing are due to hormone deficiencies. Common age-related hormone problems can be mistaken for other ailments. That is why it’s important to stay educated on the signs of low testosterone and other important hormones.
Some of the symptoms of low sex hormone levels include:
- Hot flashes
- Hair loss
- Decreased muscle mass
- Fatigue
- Increased belly fat
- Unexpected weight gain
- Decreased athletic performance
- Sexual dysfunction
- Problems with endurance
- Low energy every day
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Irritability
- Low sex drive
- Mood swings
Symptoms between men and women can be the same, but women’s hormonal levels naturally fluctuate more often. Therefore, these symptoms can look a bit different in women.
Women with low testosterone or estrogen levels may experience some of the following symptoms:
- Irregular menstruation
- Breast tenderness
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Infertility
- Night sweats
- Vaginal dryness
- Dry skin
These symptoms can be detrimental to your health and happiness. If you want to combat these common side effects of aging, consider hormone therapy.
Natural and Effective Hormone Therapy
Your body naturally produces fewer sex hormones as you get older. This is normal during middle and older age.
Our hormone therapy infuses bioidentical hormones into your body. These infusions have the same chemical structure as natural hormones. This therapy is safe and effective. These treatments restore your quality of life using natural hormones your body needs. Aging does not have to stop you from living an energetic, happy life.
Women’s Sex Hormones
Women’s bodies need proper levels of estrogen and testosterone. While many people believe testosterone is exclusively a male hormone, it is important for women’s bodies too. Testosterone levels are far lower in women than in men, but it is still necessary for many physical functions.
Hormone Pellet Therapy for Women
Testosterone helps women build muscle mass, maintain sex drive, and repair reproductive cells.
As you get older, your body’s testosterone production declines. You may notice sleep disturbances, low libido, weakness, and fatigue. You may be able to live more healthily and happily with hormone pellet therapy.
Hormone pellet therapy for women is used to replace testosterone levels using a pellet the size of a grain of rice. The pellet is non-surgically implanted near your hip and remains for several months. During this time, the pellet slowly releases testosterone into your body.
This form of hormone therapy can increase your energy, sex drive, and mood levels. Testosterone replacement therapy helps you build muscle mass and reduce body fat as well. If you want to feel better and have more energy for life, consider testosterone pellet therapy.
Hormone Pellet Therapy for Men
Similarly to women, men’s testosterone levels decline with age. The symptoms include loss of muscle mass, reduced athletic performance, sexual dysfunction, and depression. If you suffer from these health problems and you are near middle age, it’s time to consider hormone pellet therapy for men.
This treatment is similar to the women’s version, except men’s pellets contain more testosterone. We work with you to determine your current levels and what dose you need. The pellet works over several months as it rests in your hip. You shouldn’t feel it or experience any discomfort in your daily life.
Many patients report increased energy levels within the first two weeks of hormone pellet therapy for men. Our goal is to help you get back to active, energetic, enthusiastic living again. We’ll continue to monitor your progress throughout the course of your treatment for your well-being.
Long-Term Treatment Plans
Unfortunately, once your body stops producing certain hormones, it will never start again on its own. Your hormone therapy must continue for you to keep symptoms at bay.
That’s why we recommend continuing treatment indefinitely once you begin hormone therapy. You can come in for progress checkups and additional hormone administration as needed. Most patients only need to visit once or twice a year to continue hormone treatments.
The pellet method is superior to other hormone replacement therapies because of its convenience. You don’t have to do anything every day to maintain your hormone levels. The pellet is specially designed to release the right amount of hormones into your body over time.
