Bio identical Hormone treatment - Renew Hormones

Introduction

Bio-identical hormone treatment involves using hormones that are molecularly identical to those produced naturally in the human body to treat hormonal imbalances and deficiencies. As we age, hormone levels decline, causing various symptoms and health issues. Replacing these hormones can provide immense benefits and dramatically improve one's quality of life. This article will explore bio-identical hormones in-depth, from common deficiency signs to the advantages of treatment to the experience at Renew Hormones.

What are Bio-Identical Hormones?

Bio-identical hormones are man-made hormones that are chemically and structurally identical to those found naturally in the human body. The most commonly prescribed bio-identical hormones include:

• Estrogen - the main female sex hormone
• Progesterone - regulates the menstrual cycle and pregnancy
• Testosterone - the primary male sex hormone
• DHEA - a precursor to estrogen and testosterone
• Thyroid - regulates metabolism

These hormones are custom-compounded in a lab to match perfectly to human hormones. They are then administered to patients in need through creams, gels, patches, pellets, or injections.

Why Hormone Levels Decline

There are several reasons why hormone levels tend to drop as we get older:

• Aging of endocrine glands like the adrenals, ovaries, and testes
• Menopause in women
• Andropause in men
• Increased stress
• Poor diet and lack of exercise
• Chronic inflammation
• Environmental toxins

This decline contributes to undesirable symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, anxiety, and depression in both men and women. Bio-identical hormones can help restore optimal levels.

Signs and Symptoms of Hormone Imbalance

Detecting a hormone imbalance early makes treatment more effective. Here are some common signs and symptoms:

Estrogen Deficiency

• Hot flashes
• Vaginal dryness

Progesterone Deficiency
