Hormone Therapy

As you get older your body’s hormone levels can decline and get out of balance. A decrease or abnormal increase in these hormones can leave you feeling less energetic and less like you did when you were younger. Many people accept this decline in health as “getting older.”

We say NO! Just because you are getting older does not mean that you have to feel older.

Do you suffer from the following symptoms?

• Brain Fog
• Dry Skin
• Decreased Muscle Mass
• Anxiety
• Low Sexual Desire
• Headaches
• Depression
• Fatique
• Low Energy

These symptoms can be caused by low hormones or hormonal imbalance.

We can measure and rebalance your hormone levels to optimize your health and energy levels. At Healthy Living Family Medical we have multiple hormone treatment plans available for both men and women.   Consulting with our practitioners will help determine the best approach for you.

The pellets used for hormone therapy are small – only a bit larger than a grain of rice – and are made to be inserted quickly and painlessly under the skin. Once in place it delivers a steady, natural dose of hormones directly to wherever the hormones are needed. These hormones are plant-based compounds specifically formulated to match the molecular structure of human hormones. They work for 3-6 months and you won’t have to remember to take a pill or apply a cream.

Many patients who have been on creams, pills and patches discover that their hormone treatment can create side effects over time. Non-pellet methods can provide an irregular dosing amount, which produces a roller coaster-like effect in the body.

Pellets deliver a steady and measured dose of the hormones your body needs and only as it needs them.

We also offer prescriptions for Testosterone, Progesterone and Estrogen. In addition to prescriptions, we use natural supplements to help naturally balance hormones. The key is discussing all options with our medical practitioners trained in all aspects of hormone therapy to find the custom fit solution to your situation. Each patient is unique and needs a customized program fit for them. We will find the right solution for you.

We rely on blood and urine testing to determine hormone levels to help diagnose the best way to approach proper hormone balancing.

Our goal is to help Restore proper balance to “get your life back”.

Once balance is restored, many patients report the following health benefits:

• Restored or increased sexual desire
• Consistency in moods
• Relief from anxiety and depression
• Increased mental clarity, focus and memory
• Reduced body fat & improved muscle mass
• Improved energy and restorative sleep

For some patients we recommend taking the DUTCH test. This stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. There is an additional cost for this test and it requires a separate visit with the practitioner to interpret its findings.  For more information on the DUTCH test click here.
