Hormone therapy (HT), also known as hormone replacement therapy (HRT), involves restoring hormones to normal physiologic levels when the body cannot produce adequate amounts. This treatment can provide relief from uncomfortable deficiency symptoms and long-term health benefits when hormones become deficient due to aging or other medical issues.
At Balance Health Clinic in Clarendon Hills, our experienced medical team specializes in HT using bioidentical hormones - substances molecularly identical to those made naturally in the body - to optimize treatment effectiveness and safety. We offer comprehensive programs tailored to each patient's unique needs and health goals.
Detecting hormone deficiencies early is key to swiftly treating symptoms for optimal wellness. We thoroughly evaluate hormone levels and help patients understand their lab results. Common deficiency signs warranting testing include:
Restoring balance with HT can enhance quality of life by relieving difficult symptoms while also promoting long-lasting health. Potential benefits include:
Supplementing low estrogen helps stabilize cycles and minimize unpleasant effects like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and mood changes.
Estrogen plays a vital role in bone production and strength. Estrogen therapy can reduce bone loss, lowering fracture risks.
Estrogen and testosterone influence cognition and memory. HT may boost mental sharpness, clarity, and recall abilities.
Testosterone therapy helps normalize testosterone, improving energy, drive, physical stamina, and athletic performance.
Adequate estrogen and testosterone levels are integral for maintaining a healthy libido and sexual function as we age.
Testosterone facilitates metabolic processes that build lean muscle mass. Normalizing levels can aid muscle growth and physical strength.
Hormone balance significantly influences mood, outlook, and emotional health. HT often relieves anxiety while boosting confidence and motivation.
