Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. As we age, hormone levels often decline, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help restore optimal hormone levels, alleviating symptoms and promoting better health.
BHRT utilizes FDA-approved bioidentical hormones sourced from yams and soy plants. These plant-derived hormones have a molecular structure identical to human hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. BHRT provides hormone levels tailored to your individual needs through regular testing and monitoring.
Several factors contribute to dwindling hormone levels as we get older:
If your hormones are out of whack, you may experience emotional and physical symptoms like:
Women
Men
Restoring balance with bioidentical hormones offers wide-ranging benefits:
Symptom relief: BHRT can effectively minimize or resolve troublesome menopausal symptoms in women and "andropause" symptoms in men. Customized treatment gets to the root cause of hormone-related issues.
Cardiovascular benefits: Balanced estrogen levels support heart health in women, while testosterone offers cardiovascular benefits for men. BHRT may help lower dangerous lipids and improve blood flow.
Better mood and cognition: Optimal hormone levels enhance mental clarity while easing anxiety and depression. Bioidentical hormones promote healthy brain aging.
Increased energy: Numerous patients report feeling "rejuvenated" with renewed stamina and significantly less fatigue.
Healthier weight: Bioidentical hormones facilitate weight loss in the abdomen, hips, and thighs while increasing lean muscle mass.
Stronger bones: Estrogen and testosterone play pivotal roles in bone formation and density. BHRT can strengthen bones and lower fracture risk.
Improved intimacy: With increased desire, arousal, sensation, and satisfaction, balanced hormones create a better sex life.

Renewal Hormone Clinic embraces an integrative approach focused on uncovering the unique root causes behind hormone imbalance in each individual patient.
We understand the interplay between lifestyle, environment, genetics, and hormones. That’s why our clinicians design fully personalized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) protocols to resolve deficiency symptoms, while also leveraging nutritional support, fitness guidance, stress reduction techniques, and other complementary strategies to optimize total mind-body health.
Too many hormone specialists take a one-size-fits-all approach, providing recycled treatment plans that fail to address the nuances of each patient’s biochemistry and health status.
At Renewal Hormone Clinic, we reject cookie-cutter protocols in favor of science-based precision care. Key aspects that set our clinic apart:
Our clinicians possess advanced certifications in age management medicine with extensive training in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). We pursue ongoing education and stay current on the latest medical research in our field.
You’ll work directly with your designated hormone specialist throughout treatment. Our providers have earned five-star reviews for their compassion, attentiveness, and commitment to exceptional patient care.
We also collaborate with a network of highly-skilled affiliated practitioners offering complementary services like nutrition consulting, fitness training, psychotherapy, and more – all conveniently under one roof.
If you’re experiencing potential symptoms of hormone imbalance, Renewal Hormone Clinic can help you reclaim your vitality. We make the process easy through four simple steps:
1. Initial Consult: We’ll conduct an extensive evaluation, assessing your signs and symptoms, medical history, risk factors, and lifestyle habits. Any prior lab testing gets carefully reviewed. After pinpointing areas of likely hormone deficiency, we’ll order targeted blood and/or saliva labs if appropriate.
2. Follow-Up Visit: At your second appointment, we’ll analyze your comprehensive lab results and examine your questionnaire responses to confirm a hormone imbalance diagnosis. Then we’ll have an in-depth discussion about bioidentical hormone solutions, tailoring a treatment plan to your unique needs and goals.
3. Initiate Therapy: Once you consent to customized treatment, we’ll prescribe high quality bioidentical hormones like progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, and others as indicated. Convenience, safety, efficacy, and purity are our top priorities in sourcing pharmaceutical-grade hormones for therapy.
4. Continued Care: You’ll initially return every 4-6 weeks for thorough evaluations assessing symptom improvements, lab measures, medication tolerance, and any necessary dosage adjustments. We fine-tune your regimen until full hormone balance and optimal wellness are restored. Ongoing monitoring and maintenance care sustain the benefits long-term.
Estrogen – crucial for female health – steeply declines during perimenopause and menopause. Low estrogen underlies many common menopausal symptoms. custom estrogen replacement as part of bioidentical hormone therapy (BHT) can provide immense relief by restoring estradiol to optimal levels.
We meticulously tailor estrogen dosing to your needs based on lab testing, symptom evaluation, and other assessment parameters. Estrogen forms, doses, and delivery methods get precisely calibrated for safety and efficacy.
Common estrogen options include:
Estrogen requires proper progesterone balance for endometrial protection. Renewal Hormone Clinicians carefully prescribe these hormones in synergy based on the latest medical guidelines.
We also provide nutritional guidance and lifestyle coaching – like stress management, improved sleep hygiene, regular exercise, and dietary approaches (including phytoestrogens) – to help optimize your estrogen levels.
Any woman with bothersome perimenopausal or menopausal symptoms accompanied by low lab-confirmed estrogen levels can likely achieve marked relief through customized estrogen restoration.
Common signs of low estrogen warranting evaluation include:
Schedule a consultation if you’re struggling with these symptoms. Our clinicians can determine whether estrogen therapy might help you reclaim your vitality!
While estrogen dominates during the premenopausal years, progesterone becomes equally vital after menopause. This hormone helps regulate menstrual cycles premenopausally, while also facilitating proper estrogen activity.
Declining progesterone after menopause can cause significant issues:
Progesterone replacement as part of bioidentical hormone therapy can resolve these problems by reestablishing optimal progesterone levels. Our clinicians identify and treat progesterone deficiency through careful evaluation of signs and symptoms plus lab testing.
We utilize cutting-edge progesterone lab assessment methods – like testing key metabolites instead of just serum progesterone – to obtain sophisticated diagnostic clarity. Custom-formulated progesterone creams, oral pills, or sustained-release inserts get recommended based upon your menopausal status and treatment goals.
Lifestyle optimization strategies also help:
Renewal Hormone Clinic provides comprehensive progesterone support – including testing, prescription bioidentical hormones, and evidence-based lifestyle coaching – empowering you to overcome deficiency.
Male androgens like testosterone powerfully influence physical health, cognitive function, emotional state, quality of life, and longevity. Yet testosterone production frequently declines with aging – a condition known clinically as “hypogonadism” and colloquially called “Low T.”
Up to 40% of men over age 45 may suffer from clinically low testosterone. As levels drop, men often experience:
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can reverse this hormone-related decline through precision restoration of testosterone status. TRT also benefits some women with low testosterone levels.
TRT involves strictly-monitored, physician-managed administration of prescription bioidentical testosterone via sublingual drops/tablets, topical gels, injectables, or sustained-release pellets. Formulation, dosage, and delivery mechanisms are customized to the unique needs and preferences of each patient.
Along with expert TRT provision from our highly-trained clinicians, Renewal Hormone Clinic also offers complete lab testing, lifestyle optimization guidance, and nutritional support. Our integrative protocols help patients achieve transformative revitalization of body, mind and spirit.
Because testosterone deficiency can negatively impact so many aspects of men’s health, we encourage men – especially those over 40 – to consider a thorough hormone evaluation if experiencing potential low T symptoms.
Assessment involves checking blood levels of “total” and “free” testosterone, then carefully correlating concentrations against deficiency thresholds adjusted for age. “Bioavailable” testosterone, SHBG levels, and related hormone markers also provide diagnostic clarity. Clinicians additionally consider lifestyle habits, medical history, symptom severity, and physical exam findings when gauging the appropriateness of TRT.
Schedule a consultation to determine if TRT might help resolve your deficiency struggles. Our experienced hormone specialists can properly diagnose causes of symptoms and skillfully implement transformative treatment plans including bioidentical testosterone therapy when clinically indicated.
While estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone rank among the most therapeutically prominent, Renewal Hormone Clinic also frequently prescribes other bioidentical hormones like DHEA, melatonin, pregnenolone, cortisol modulators, thyroid hormones, and growth hormone secretagogues. Our clinicians constantly study emerging research on novel hormone-based interventions to incorporate cutting-edge therapies into customized treatment protocols.
We understand how delicately interconnected hormone activity regulates vital functions throughout the entire body. Declining hormones disrupt biological harmony, causing system-wide breakdown manifesting as numerous distressing signs and symptoms.
Through precision balancing of key hormones deficient with age, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) provided by Renewal Hormone Clinic can entirely recalibrate the complex neuroendocrine signaling underlying optimal wellness. Patients often describe feeling “completely rejuvenated” by restorative hormone therapies prescribed by our clinic!
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. However, some women report preferring them because they more closely mimic the body's natural hormones. More research is still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits compared to traditional hormone therapy.
