Bioidentical hormones are substances that are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. They are derived from plant sources and are formulated to be an exact match in molecular structure to human hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and others.
There are multiple effective methods for administering bioidentical hormone therapy:
Vitality Hormone Center physicians will determine the optimal method or combination for your treatment protocol.
Unlike "one dose fits all" approaches with synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormone regimens are customized to match your body's ideal hormonal balance. Factors like age, gender, underlying conditions and treatment goals guide your dosing and method.
Both men and women can benefit from bringing their hormones into proper balance through bioidentical hormone replacement. Some groups who commonly seek this treatment include:
Hormone production starts declining around age 30-35. Restoring dwindling hormones to optimal levels with bioidentical HRT can relieve low testosterone and menopause symptoms, improving quality of life.
Prolonged or severe stress depletes hormone levels. Bioidentical hormones help restore optimal levels, alleviating related issues like low libido, insomnia, fatigue, anxiety, mental fog and more.
Studies reveal benefits of bioidentical hormones for a wide range of conditions—from mental health disorders to autoimmune diseases and neuropathy. Hormonal balance is crucial for whole-body health.
Balanced hormones mean greater energy, endurance and strength. Bioidentical testosterone and other hormones allow both competitive and recreational athletes to enhance their physical performance.
At Vitality Hormone Center in Elko, we most often address the following hormonal deficiencies and imbalances through customized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) programs:
The most prominent male sex hormone, low testosterone leads to low energy, reduced libido, weight gain, loss of muscle mass, mood shifts and increased risk for various diseases.
Menopause marks the decline of key female hormones (estrogen and progesterone). Disrupting over 300 body processes, it causes hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, pain, libido loss, sleep disruptions, and long term issues like heart disease and osteoporosis.
An under or overactive thyroid throws off metabolism regulation, body temperature control, heart rate, weight, energy, mood and more. Restoring thyroid hormones to optimal levels reverses related issues.
Beginning in the 30s, declining Human Growth Hormone (HGH) levels reduce energy, bone density, muscle mass, injury recovery rate and more functions. Many seek HGH bioidentical therapy for anti-aging and vitality.
When the adrenal glands don’t produce enough cortisol and related hormones, adrenal fatigue manifests through constant exhaustion despite adequate sleep, chronic infections, blood sugar swings, thyroid disruption, PMS, anxiety and more.
With cutting edge testing and personalized precision dosing protocols, the practitioners at Vitality Hormone Center in Elko provide expert bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to help patients restore optimal hormonal balance for life transformation.
We offer expert testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) programs for men, including comprehensive labs, customized compounded bioidentical testosterone delivery systems, follow up labs and dose adjustments for ideal long-term optimization of strength, vitality and health.
For middle aged women and beyond, we provide specialized menopause and peri-menopause bioidentical HRT solutions including estrogen and progesterone balancing, using bioidentical hormones in creams, pellets or other state-of-the art delivery methods for a custom fit based on the patient’s unique needs, background and treatment goals.
Getting thyroid hormone levels into an optimal range is crucial for patients suffering from an under or overactive thyroid condition. We offer cutting edge testing and personalized bioidentical thyroid hormone balancing programs to resolve symptoms associated with thyroid disorders and support whole body vitality.
Through blood analysis, clinical evaluation and our extensive expertise, we identify candidates who may benefit from bioidentical Human Growth Hormone (HGH) therapy and customize precision treatment programs using bioidentical HGH to enhance energy, vitality, injury recovery, muscle retention and other functions that decline with age.
Stabilizing adrenal fatigue involves identifying any underlying causes while providing bioidentical DHEA, cortisol or other adrenal hormones as necessary to relieve unrelenting exhaustion, nervous system imbalance, unstable blood sugar, thyroid dysfunction and the many other disruptive symptoms those with taxed adrenals commonly face. Vitality Hormone Center practitioners excel in this area of endocrine repair and optimization.
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those produced naturally in the body. However, the body metabolizes them differently than natural hormones, so optimal dosing can require much tinkering and patience to get right. Finding the right balance takes time.
