Why Hormones Matter for Health

Hormones like testosterone, estrogen, progesterone and others play a crucial role in regulating critical bodily functions and maintaining optimal health. When hormones fall out of balance, a wide range of symptoms and diseases can manifest from fatigue, low libido, hot flashes, osteoporosis, muscle loss, mood disorders and heart disease.

Restoring hormones to optimal levels through replacement therapy provides immense benefits for wellbeing, disease prevention and quality of life - especially as we age. Hormone therapy has transformed countless lives with incredible improvements to energy, mental health, sexual function, body composition, skin and productivity.

Innovations in Hormone Replacement Protocols

The past decade has brought numerous advances in HRT methods for convenience, efficacy and safety.

Extended Release Hormone Pellets

Bioidentical hormone pellets slowly release therapeutic doses of hormones over 3-6 months following a quick and simple insertion procedure under local anesthetic. Pellets maintain remarkably stable blood levels compared to daily gels/injections.

Growth Hormone Secretagogues

Peptide compounds can stimulate pituitary release of the body's own HGH for increasing muscle mass, bone density and skin thickness without injections.

DHEA

This natural prohormone precursor declines 80-90% with aging. Oral DHEA supplementation boosts testosterone, improves cognition, mood, immune function and bone density.

Pharmaceuticals

Medications like clomiphene stimulate endogenous testosterone production which preserves male fertility compared to direct administration.

Compounding Pharmacies

Custom mixing topical hormone creams according to a patient's prescription achieves personalized ratios/doses of testosterone, estrogen, progesterone etc.

Nutraceuticals

Herbal supplements like tribulus, fenugreek and DIM support healthy hormone balance and metabolism indirectly through several beneficial mechanisms.

Pros and Cons of Different Delivery Methods

There are several options for administering bioidentical hormones, each with their own sets of advantages and disadvantages.

Method Pros Cons
Oral Convenient, non-invasive First pass liver metabolism, GI side effects
Injections Most efficacious, longer duration Frequent needles
Creams/Gels Steady absorption, ease of dose changes Skin irritation, inconsistent uptake
Pellets Most stable long-term levels Minor surgical procedure
Nasal No needles, direct brain delivery Lower bioavailability, nose bleeds
Patches Simple application, avoid first pass Skin reactions, visibility

Working with an expert hormonal specialist to tailor the best delivery methods to your unique physiology and lifestyle provides superior optimization and patient outcomes.
