Hormones play a crucial role in regulating many processes in the body. As we age or due to certain medical conditions, hormone levels can become imbalanced, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help alleviate symptoms and restore optimal health.
Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. BHRT uses customized preparations of these hormones to restore optimal levels based on an individual's needs.
At Hormone Harmony Clinic, our experienced medical providers offer cutting-edge BHRT programs to help patients find relief. We provide personalized care rooted in advanced testing and monitoring.

Hormone levels fluctuate regularly but certain life stages or medical conditions can throw them radically out of balance. Common hormone deficiencies include:
Estrogen deficiency often occurs during perimenopause and menopause. Declining estrogen levels lead to symptoms like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, bladder problems, and emotional changes.
Testosterone deficiency becomes increasingly common in aging men. Low testosterone causes issues like fatigue, weakened muscles, low libido, erectile dysfunction, and depression.
Thyroid hormone deficiencies produce symptoms such as sluggish metabolism, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, fatigue, and feeling cold.
Growth hormone deficiency causes decreased muscle mass and bone density, increased body fat, fatigue, and emotional changes over time.
Correcting hormone imbalances through replacement restores wellness and quality of life. Paying attention to symptoms and seeking timely treatment are key.
BHRT provides customizable hormone balancing to suit each patient's physiology and needs. It can effectively alleviate uncomfortable symptoms while optimizing health. Benefits may include:

Our four-step program ensures excellent care from start to finish:
We begin by ordering medically necessary blood, saliva, or urine tests to evaluate hormone levels and metabolic status. Test results allow us to identify specific imbalances contributing to your issues.
We pay particular attention to nutrients vital to hormone health like vitamin D, zinc, magnesium, and B vitamins. Optimizing nutrition and metabolism lays the foundation for successful treatment.
After a comprehensive review of your health history, exam findings, and testing results, we design a customized BHRT plan.
We prescribe bioidentical hormones including estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid hormone, melatonin, and growth hormone as needed. The method of delivery – oral tablets, sublingual drops, topical creams or gels, injectable serums, or pellet implants – depends on your physiology and lifestyle considerations.
Appropriate hormone doses remedy deficiencies while avoiding excess. Monitoring progress helps fine-tune your regimen.
Healthy lifestyle counseling on nutrition, movement, stress reduction, and sleep supports hormonal and total health. Our integrative plans address the whole person.
Hormone levels fluctuate, so we will repeat labs at strategic intervals such as every 3, 6 or 12 months. Follow-up visits also allow us to check on symptoms and adjust medications to keep your regimen optimal.
We partner with you on this hormone balancing journey, providing supportive accountability while celebrating victories large and small.
Diet, exercise, mindset, and environment profoundly influence hormonal harmony and the benefits experienced. We offer guidance on:
