Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) uses hormones identical to those your body naturally produces to replenish diminishing levels caused by aging, stress, or lifestyle changes. The treatment is designed to help balance hormone levels in the body by using hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body. BHRT is typically used to treat symptoms related to hormonal imbalances, particularly during peri-menopause and menopause for women or low testosterone in men.

​

Customized doses of bioidentical hormones such as progesterone, estrogen and testosterone are used to correct age-related hormone decline, slow aging and improve health and function of the body, decreasing unwanted side effects and symptoms.

​

Appropriate dosages are determined using specific screenings and testing to ensure optimal safety and efficacy. 

With a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, BHRT can address:

​

Hot flashes and night sweats

Fatigue and brain fog

Mood disturbances and anxiety

Weight gain and muscle loss

Vaginal dryness and low libido

Hair loss

Poor sleep quality

Semaglutide works by increasing the production of insulin in the body, mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, that reduces appetite and increases feelings of fullness. The drug was originally approved to treat type 2 diabetes but since the discovery of its weight loss benefits, it has been FDA-approved for helping people lose weight.    

Individuals who are serious about losing weight and will combine the treatment along with dietary changes and physical exercise. It is important that patients have realistic expectations about the treatment including what can be achieved and the timeframe for these changes to be seen. You should also be in good overall health and not have any underlying conditions or take medications that would contraindicate the treatment such as pregnant or breastfeeding women.
