Many people experience a decline in hormone levels as they age, leading to undesirable symptoms. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can help restore optimal hormone levels to promote better health and wellbeing.
Hormone levels can drop due to natural aging, stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, and other lifestyle factors. Diseases or damage to hormone-producing glands can also result in hormone insufficiencies. Getting properly tested and addressing any deficiencies is key.
Common symptoms of low testosterone in men include low libido, erectile dysfunction, depleted energy, and mood changes. Low estrogen and progesterone in women often causes hot flashes, vaginal dryness, disrupted sleep, and emotional instability. Thyroid issues like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism lead to rapid weight fluctuations, constantly feeling cold or hot, and hair loss.
Paying attention to symptoms and getting prompt treatment can greatly improve quality of life. Our experienced physicians at Renew Medical HRT Clinic take the time to listen to patients’ concerns and get to the root cause of hormone imbalances.
Bioidentical hormone replacement provides individually tailored treatment using plant-based hormones that mimic the body’s natural hormones. This leads to excellent safety and efficacy.
Bioidentical hormones have a molecular structure identical to the hormones produced in the human body. The most commonly replaced hormones are estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, melatonin, and thyroid hormone.
Our compounding pharmacy prepares customized bioidentical hormones in capsules, gels, creams, pellets, troches, and injectables to match each patient’s needs. Compounded hormones are not mass-produced or one-size-fits all.
Bioidentical hormone therapy provided by our highly trained medical staff offers solutions tailored to your unique physiology and lifestyle. It can relieve troublesome symptoms more effectively and safely than conventional hormone replacement.

The first step is diagnosing the root cause and extent of your hormone imbalances through comprehensive lab testing.
Having an experienced, attentive physician guides you through the intricacies of hormone testing and customized treatment plans. Our doctors take time to listen and address all your concerns. We partner with the best compounding pharmacies to provide truly personalized care.
Blood, saliva, or urine tests check levels of key hormones like estradiol, testosterone, progesterone, DHEA, and thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Testing also evaluates metabolites and sex hormone binding proteins. Follow-up tests may be needed to hone in on optimal dosing. We use leading-edge reference ranges for peak wellness.
Working closely with your doctor, nutritionist, and compounding pharmacy, customized protocols get developed to rebalance your hormones for ideal health.
Beginning bioidentical hormone replacement starts with the smallest efficacious dose, then gradually increasing based on follow-up testing and symptom monitoring. This minimizes risks while efficiently alleviating deficiencies for the best possible outcome.
We create individualized treatment plans consisting of bioidentical estrogen, testosterone, thyroid hormones, and other critical hormones as needed. Pellet implants, transdermal gels/creams, or oral administration may be incorporated depending on which method best suits each patient’s physiology and preferences.
Patients receive supportive guidance each step of the way for a smooth transition:

Unlike conventional hormone therapy, bioidentical hormones are custom-formulated to match the molecular structure of the hormones naturally produced in the human body. This allows them to bind more efficiently to hormone receptors, which may help explain why some studies show bioidentical hormones have fewer side effects than traditional hormone replacement.
