Bioidentical hormone therapy is becoming an increasingly popular option for both women and men seeking to correct hormone imbalances and improve their quality of life. This cutting-edge treatment can help alleviate unpleasant symptoms of menopause, andropause, and other hormone-related conditions. In this guide, we will explain the basics of bioidentical hormones and highlight the benefits of treatment. We will also showcase our exceptional HRT Solutions and the personalized care we provide patients in the Hinsdale area.

What Are Bioidentical Hormones?

Bioidentical hormones are man-made hormones that are very similar in molecular structure to the hormones produced naturally by the human body. The key difference from conventional hormone replacement therapy is that bioidentical hormones are customized to match each person's individual hormone levels and needs.

Some of the most commonly prescribed bioidentical hormones include:

Why Choose Bioidentical Over Synthetic?

There are a few key advantages of bioidentical hormone therapy over traditional synthetic hormone treatments:

  • Bioidenticals are natural, plant-based, and biologically identical to human hormones, meaning they can bind more efficiently with receptors in the body.
  • They can be customized to meet each patient's hormonal needs.
  • Studies show bioidenticals have fewer side effects than synthetics.
  • More convenient application methods are available - gels, pellets, patches, and injections.

Symptoms of Hormone Imbalance

Imbalanced hormone levels can produce a variety of unpleasant symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. Common symptoms include:

Women: hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, loss of libido, weight gain, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, mood swings.

Men: fatigue, loss of stamina, depression, erectile dysfunction, loss of focus and concentration, loss of muscle mass, weight gain.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, we recommend getting your hormone levels tested to determine if hormone therapy could help provide relief.

Who Can Benefit From Bioidentical HRT?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can benefit both women and men at various life stages, including:

Menopausal Women

Declining estrogen levels leading up to and during menopause can cause severe symptoms like hot flashes that disturb sleep and mood changes.

Bioidentical estrogen and progesterone therapy is extremely effective at relieving these symptoms and allowing menopausal women to enjoy life again.

Men With Low T

Testosterone levels start dropping about 1% per year after age 30. Low testosterone, or "low T", is associated with fatigue, depression, weight gain, low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and loss of muscle mass in men.

Bioidentical testosterone therapy can safely and effectively reverse the symptoms of low T, allowing men to restore their vitality.

People With Thyroid Issues

An underactive or overactive thyroid can lead to unpleasant symptoms like fatigue, weight gain or loss, joint pain, and digestive issues.

Bioidentical thyroid hormone (T3 & T4) supplementation can help normalize thyroid function and resolve related symptoms.

Assessing Your Hormone Levels

Getting baseline lab testing is crucial prior to starting any hormone therapy regimen. Accurately measuring your hormone levels allows our practitioners to customize your treatment plan accordingly.

We recommend testing the following hormones:

Women: Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEA-S, TSH, T4, T3 Men: Testosterone, Free and Total, Estradiol, PSA, TSH, T4, T3

HRT Solutions offers state-of-the-art testing right in our Hinsdale clinic for your convenience. We also provide virtual consultations and can make recommendations based on recent lab results you provide from your healthcare provider.

The right hormone balance helps regulate fat storage and metabolic function, supporting healthy weight management. Patients often lose those stubborn extra pounds with bioidentical therapy.

Enhanced Sex Drive and Function

Declining testosterone is a major cause of low libido and performance issues in men. Androgen and estrogen therapy improves desire and arousal in both men and women.
