Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate many key functions in the body. They are produced by glands and released into the bloodstream, where they travel to tissues and organs and influence processes like growth, metabolism, reproduction, and mood.
Maintaining healthy hormone levels is crucial for overall well-being. However, hormone imbalances can develop due to reasons like:
The most common symptoms of hormone imbalance include:
If left untreated, the symptoms can worsen over time and lead to more serious health issues. That's why timely treatment of hormone deficiencies with hormone therapy is important.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) involves supplementing hormones to treat deficiencies and relieve unpleasant symptoms. It can benefit both men and women.
The process involves:
HRT helps restore wellbeing and vitality by supporting essential body systems through key hormones like:
Testosterone is crucial for:
Declining testosterone levels can lead to low energy, reduced libido, weight gain, and depression in both men and women.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is used to bring testosterone levels back up to an optimal range. It can be administered as:
With treatment, testosterone deficiency symptoms greatly improve.
The hormone estrogen plays vital roles like:
Estrogen therapy helps relieve unpleasant menopause symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, and sleep problems in women.
Estrogen can be supplemented as pills, skin patches, creams or gels.
Along with testosterone and estrogen, other key hormones like progesterone, DHEA and melatonin may also require treatment.
Progesterone works together with estrogen to regulate menstruation and support pregnancy.
DHEA helps produce other hormones and plays roles in bone and muscle health.
The hormone melatonin helps control sleep and wake cycles.
A customized hormone therapy plan addresses your unique deficiencies through targeted use of these vital hormones.
Seeking timely diagnosis and hormone therapy for deficiencies offers considerable benefits like:
