Hormone imbalances can develop at any age and affect both men and women. When hormones fall out of optimal ranges, patients may experience symptoms like unexplained weight gain, low energy, depression, and loss of interest in normal activities. Hormone therapy aims to restore hormone balance through medications like testosterone and estrogen. Treatment can relieve symptoms and help patients regain their quality of life. Wellness Hormone Clinic has specialized expertise in customized bioidentical hormone therapy to meet each patient's needs.
The first step is diagnosing any imbalances. At Wellness Hormone Clinic, we provide hormone testing to accurately measure hormone levels in the body. Based on the test results and reported symptoms, our practitioners can identify any deficiencies or excesses and decide on appropriate treatment plans.
Once diagnosed, we offer customized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT). This involves supplements or patches that restore hormones to optimal levels based on the lab test results. There are many advantages to bioidentical HRT:
Patients often report benefits like:
Balancing key hormones also has protective effects:
We recognize and treat hormone therapy as more than just symptom relief. Our goal is to optimize wellbeing during aging through:
There are various methods to deliver bioidentical hormones:
Topical creams containing estrogen, testosterone, or DHEA can restore local tissue levels. Absorption varies based on area applied and skin integrity.
Micronized progesterone capsules help stabilize the uterine lining to reduce heavy periods and risk of cancer. We also use compounded thyroid capsules when needed.
Transdermal patches provide a steady delivery of estrogen, testosterone, and other hormones. For more stable long term therapy, subcutaneous hormone pellets implanted under the skin release consistent doses over 4-6 months.
Hormone therapy can help transgender individuals align their physical characteristics with their gender identity. Studies show that access to gender-affirming care improves mental health outcomes and lowers suicide risk. Though not without risks, hormone therapy allows many transgender people to live more authentically.
Many people suffer for years before receiving treatment for hormonal issues. But recognizing and promptly treating imbalances is key, especially for concerns like:
We aim for early detection through screening labs appropriate for age and gender. This prevents complications and leads to better treatment responses long-term.
While hormone therapy provides symptom relief and protective effects, lifestyle is also key. We counsel patients on additional ways to support health during aging:
A multifaceted approach combines the benefits of hormone treatment, nutrient-dense eating, active lifestyle, stress relief, and adequate sleep.

Our experienced practitioners stay current on the latest research and treatment approaches. We've helped thousands of patients optimize wellness during aging through individualized plans.
Declining estrogen levels during menopause cause symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. The drop also negatively impacts heart health, bone density, skin elasticity, and bladder support over time. Balancing estrogen levels reduces symptoms while providing long term protective benefits.
Bioidentical estrogen therapy replaces the exact hormones that decline during menopause. At Wellness Hormone Clinic, we offer:
Pellet implants containing estradiol are also excellent for stabilizing estrogen levels long-term. We work closely with an experienced surgeon for those interested in this option.
Based on the patient’s needs and preferences, we customize therapeutic estrogen doses to relieve troublesome symptoms. We also monitor bone density and cardiovascular markers to ensure protective effects. Follow up lab testing and dose adjustments ensure optimal estrogen status is maintained long term.
Estrogen replacement is one of the most beneficial types of hormone therapy for women during the menopause transition and beyond. It not only resolves quality of life issues but also confers lasting health advantages with the right treatment plan.
Testosterone acts as the primary sex hormone in both men and women. But levels decline substantially with age, causing symptoms like low energy, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, and emotional changes. Balancing testosterone with bioidentical hormones enhances vitality, body composition, mood, and cognition during aging.
At Wellness Hormone Clinic, we recognize testosterone’s wide-ranging benefits in aging men and women. That’s why we offer comprehensive testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) tailored to meet patient needs:
We customize therapeutic testosterone doses based on lab testing and symptom reports. Delivery methods include gels, creams, pellets, oral troches, or injectables based on patient preferences. Follow up testing ensures optimal, safe testosterone levels are achieved and maintained.
As leaders in the field of age-management medicine, our expert staff recognizes the immense benefits of proper testosterone balance. We offer cutting edge therapies alongside lifestyle counseling for maximizing results from TRT.
While estrogen and testosterone receive the most attention, other hormone deficiencies occur with age and affect wellness. We provide targeted treatment when indicated to comprehensively restore optimal balance:
Because thyroid regulates metabolic rate and energy levels, imbalances greatly impact quality of life. We diagnose thyroid disorders through blood tests and treat with bioidentical hormones like T3 and levothyroxine. Lifestyle counseling on nutrition, activity, and stress reduction complements the benefits of thyroid therapy.
Levels of DHEA peak in early adulthood then drop throughout middle age. Research links optimal DHEA status to better mood, body composition, and even longevity. We offer bioidentical DHEA in capsule or cream form alongside diet and exercise plans for magnifying benefits.
Many patients experience disturbed sleep/wake cycles and low daytime energy as they age. We often find low melatonin levels on lab testing which can be restored through oral supplements.
For interested patients with true growth hormone deficiencies, we offer detailed age management plans involving prescription HGH injections. These can reduce body fat, support lean mass, strengthen bones, and improve skin quality during aging. However, thorough testing is needed given health risks if inappropriately prescribed.
