Bioidentical hormones are man-made hormones that are biochemically identical to those naturally produced in the human body. This means they match human hormones molecule for molecule in structure and function. At our HormoneHarmony clinic in Scarsdale, New York, we specialize in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) to relieve symptoms caused by hormonal decline and imbalance associated with aging and health conditions.
Unlike synthetic hormones used in conventional hormone replacement therapy (HRT), bioidentical hormones act in the body just like naturally occurring hormones. They bind properly to hormone receptors and help restore optimal hormonal balance. When prescribed and monitored correctly, bioidentical hormones are a safe and effective method for supplementing the body’s low or declining hormone levels.
Age-related hormone decline and imbalance of key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol and DHEA can significantly impact quality of life. Common symptoms associated with hormone deficiency include:
If you have been experiencing any combination of these symptoms, they may be caused by a hormone imbalance that could likely be corrected with BHRT customized specifically for your needs. Our experienced practitioners start by testing hormone levels to accurately diagnose any deficiencies, after which we develop fully personalized treatment plans aimed at helping patients find relief.
At HormoneHarmony, no two treatment plans are exactly alike. We take the time to understand your unique situation, symptoms, medical history and goals during an extensive initial assessment. Based on the results of clinical testing and evaluation, our practitioners will design a bioidentical hormone regimen tailored to your hormonal profile and health status. Custom programs may include:
- Estradiol to relieve hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, pain with intimacy and other menopausal symptoms
- Testosterone therapy to boost energy levels, sexual functioning, muscle and bone strength
- Thyroid supplementation to correct metabolism issues underlying fatigue, weight gain and other symptoms
- Progesterone to provide mood stability, reduce anxiety and improve sleep
- DHEA to support brain health and immune function - Pregnenolone to enhance cognitive abilities and emotional resilience
The exact dosage and combination is calibrated precisely through follow-up testing to reach an optimal hormonal balance tailored specifically for you. Lifestyle and diet changes may also be recommended to complement treatment.
When formulating and administering bioidentical hormones under medical guidance and monitoring, they provide a safe and effective long-term treatment option. Made from high quality pharmaceutical grade ingredients from yam or soy plant substances, these hormones are identical on a molecular level with what the human body produces. This allows them to properly bind receptors and closely mimic the body’s natural rhythms and feedback loops.
As leading experts in bioidentical hormone therapy, HormoneHarmony adheres to strict safety protocols such as:
Additionally, there is substantial research demonstrating bioidentical hormones safely and effectively treat hormone deficiency symptoms when prescribed and monitored by a trained medical professional.
