Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones produced naturally in the human body. Common bioidentical hormones include:
They are sourced from plant compounds and customized to match your individual hormonal deficiencies. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidenticals are naturally recognized by your body's receptors, creating optimal hormonal balance.
Balancing your hormones with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can provide relief from debilitating menopause, andropause, or other hormone deficiency symptoms, including:
Clinical studies show bioidentical HRT effectively alleviates these symptoms and improves quality of life when hormones are optimized.

Persisting symptoms like hot flashes, low libido, and emotional swings often indicate declining hormones. Conventional medicine may dismiss these complaints as a normal part of aging. However, allowing hormonal imbalances to linger can negatively impact your quality of life.
Fortunately, advanced bioidentical hormone replacement therapy offers an effective solution for hormone optimization and symptom relief.
Bioidentical hormones have a molecular structure identical to the hormones made naturally in the body. This allows them to properly fit into your hormonal receptors.
They are sourced from plant compounds and prepared by specialized compounding pharmacies to match your individual hormone needs. Delivery methods, dosing, and schedules are customized for your metabolism and deficiency profile.
Common bioidentical hormones include:
Because bioidentical hormones are biochemically similar to your own hormones, you shouldn’t experience the negative synthetic hormone side effects like fluid retention, yeast overgrowth, and increased risk of certain cancers and heart disease.
Balancing hormones with bioidentical HRT can relieve symptoms and restore wellbeing when levels decline with age, after pregnancy/childbirth, hysterectomy, and other endocrine changes.
Benefits include:
Both men and women can benefit from bioidentical hormone optimization. Treatment plans are tailored to your hormonal and deficiency profile regardless of age or gender.
At Balance Hormone Center, advanced testing and analysis precede therapy to pinpoint where your hormone levels are suboptimal. We evaluate:
Armed with a clear understanding of your current hormone function and deficiencies, our practitioners design a treatment plan using bioidentical hormones and lifestyle changes specific to your needs.
Follow-ups verify treatment effectiveness and make dosage adjustments as needed. We partner with you for optimal hormonal balance and wellbeing.

The skilled practitioners at Balance Hormone Center offer cutting-edge bioidentical hormone replacement therapy tailored to your unique needs. Read on to learn more about common hormone balancing protocols.
Declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause leads to hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal atrophy, emotional changes, sleep disruption, and loss of collagen, elasticity, and bone density. Estrogen replacement with bioidentical estradiol and estrone is highly effective for relieving these symptoms and improving wellbeing.
We identify your optimal estrogen dosage and delivery method - transdermal creams or gels, sublingual drops, pellet implants, patches, and vaginal inserts are options. Follow-ups ensure ideal symptom relief with minimal side effects.
Progesterone is also prescribed to counter estrogen's proliferative effects on uterine tissue when you have a uterus. Those who have undergone hysterectomy can use estrogen monotherapy.
Testosterone deficiency can sap vitality. Low testosterone contributes to low libido, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, mood instability, and reduced muscle mass and bone density. Testosterone therapy is very effective for alleviating "Low T" symptoms in both sexes.
We'll evaluate your free and total testosterone levels, assess related hormonal interactions, and pinpoint the optimal testosterone dosage and delivery method to enhance your health without adverse reactions. Patches, gels, pellets, and injections are possible options.
Estrogen and progesterone work synergistically. However, many women make adequate estrogen but produce little progesterone after 35. Unopposed estrogen can cause hormonal chaos - mood and sleep disruptions, weight gain, fluid retention, breast tenderness, and abnormal bleeding.
Carefully dosed bioidentical progesterone restores balance, improving PMS, regulating menstrual cycles, alleviating peri/menopause symptoms, stabilizing moods, promoting restful sleep, reducing edema, and protecting uterine tissue.
DHEA has broad anti-aging effects on energy, mood, libido, immunity, skin, fitness, brain function, and metabolism. However, DHEA secretion declines drastically after age 30. Whether used alone or alongside other therapies, properly dosed DHEA can profoundly improve zest for life as you age.
When your thyroid function is suboptimal, you may experience relentless fatigue, stubborn weight gain, dry skin, hair loss, brain fog, muscle cramps, intolerance to cold, and more. Optimizing thyroid hormone levels eliminates these debilitating symptoms and helps you feel energetic and mentally sharp.
We offer thyroid blood tests and careful medication management to ensure ideal thyroid function without overstimulation. Thyroid hormone can be life changing.

Bioidentical hormones like estradiol and progesterone derived from plants can provide an alternative to conventional hormone replacement therapy. Though promoted as more natural, bioidentical hormones have not been proven safer or more effective than synthetic versions in clinical studies.
Alongside expertly guided bioidentical hormone therapy, adopting healthy lifestyle measures can enhance results and promote lasting wellness. Here are some recommendations from Balance Hormone Center:
Eat a minimally processed, antioxidant-rich whole foods diet with optimal protein, healthy fats, high fiber carbohydrates, and a rainbow of vegetables. This provides key nutrients for hormone activity and metabolism. We offer nutrition plans tailored to your needs.
Aim for at least 30 minutes per day of moderate physical activity like walking, cycling, swimming, resistance training, yoga, or dancing. This supports hormone function, heart health, strong bones, fitness, and mental wellbeing. We provide exercise recommendations suited to your abilities and health status.
Make time for relaxing rituals - meditation, deep breathing, walking in nature, listening to music, soaking in the tub. Managing stress hormones supports hormone balance and emotional equilibrium.
Aim for 7-9 hours per night. Block blue light before bed, keep the bedroom cool and dark, avoid stimulants in the afternoon/evening, and establish a calming pre-bedtime routine. Quality sleep optimizes hormones and healing.
Surround yourself with positive social networks who uplift you. Make time for fun and laughter - it's wonderful medicine! Loneliness and isolation disrupt hormone function.
Do activities that make your soul smile like gardening, singing, volunteering, learning, crafting, or playing with pets. Focus on blessings, not burdens. A lighthearted spirit supports hormone and whole body health.
