We provide cutting-edge hormone therapy using bioidentical hormones closely matching what the body produces. These molecularly identical hormones come from plant sources and functionally mimic natural human hormones once metabolized.
Multiple options exist for effectively restoring optimal levels:
Custom compounded creams contain precise hormone concentrations absorbed through the skin. We adjust combinations and dosing according to your needs and responses. This allows flexible, convenient self-administration at home.
Intramuscular injections involve a small needle placing hormones directly into tissues. Injections every 7-21 days maintain stable blood levels between doses. We teach self-injection techniques for self-management at home.
Subcutaneous pellets the size of a grain of rice slowly release hormones for 3-6 months. We insert them under the skin during an office visit. The minor procedure takes 10-15 minutes under local anesthesia. Pellet implants provide hassle-free maintenance of balanced levels.
We also utilize oral medications, specialized testing, nutritional support, and additional complementary treatments to enhance the benefits of hormone therapy. Our goal is fully resolving deficiencies for optimal wellness.
