What are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are manufactured hormones that are identical to the hormones your body produces. The team at Real Health Medical provides bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) for men and women who have suboptimal hormone levels. For example, we offer BHRT for:
- Testosterone
- Progesterone
- Estradiol
- Estriol
- DHEA
- HCG
- Growth Hormone
- Thyroid T3 and T4
- Desiccated thyroid
Hormone Specialists in Roswell and Stockbridge
In addition to BHRT, the team also provides hCG and peptide "super hormone" therapy to enhance your health. Peptides are amino acid compounds that your body uses to build proteins.
Peptide "super" hormone therapy includes the following:
- CJC — a combination of amino acids that boosts growth factor production
- Ipamorelin — a peptide that stimulates growth hormone production
- Melanotan II — synthetic hormone to treat erectile dysfunction
- Sermorelin — man-made hormone to stimulate the pituitary gland
- BPC — growth factor that supports healing response
- Tesamorelin — synthetic hormone that reduces excess abdominal fat
- HGH growth hormone — regulates body composition and cell regeneration
The team at Real Health Medical uses extensive laboratory tests of your blood, urine, and saliva and partners with specialty labs like the DUTCH hormone lab.
Who can Benefit from Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Men and women of all ages can develop hormonal imbalances and benefit from BHRT. While the hormonal fluctuations that women experience as they reach menopause are well known, men can also experience similar symptoms due to low testosterone (low T) or estrogen dominance. Men and women can also experience thyroid hormone imbalances or autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto's disease.
Some of the common signs of hormonal imbalances include:
- Weight gain
- Lost muscle mass
- Lost bone density
- Sleep disturbances
- Irritability
- Depression and anxiety
- Brain fog
- Memory issues
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Hair loss
- Intolerance to heat or cold
