Hormone therapy involves supplementing hormones that become deficient with age or due to medical conditions. When hormones drop below optimal levels, patients may experience symptoms that negatively impact quality of life. Replacing hormones at New Beginnings HRT Clinic can provide significant benefits.
The first step is diagnostic blood testing to check levels of key hormones like testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones (T3 and T4), growth hormone, cortisol, and DHEA. Based on test results and symptom evaluation, customized hormone therapy protocols can be developed to restore optimal balance.
Hormone replacement protocols at New Beginnings HRT Clinic utilize bioidentical hormones in creams, injections, pellets, or capsules. Therapy is tailored to each patient’s physiology and adjusted over time to maximize benefits while minimizing side effects.
With hormone therapy, clinical expertise is essential for safety and efficacy. Our practitioners have advanced training in age management medicine, hrt for men and hormone replacement therapy for women. We provide enhanced screening, dosing, and monitoring to optimize treatment.
Testosterone is crucial for sexual health, muscle growth, fat loss, mood regulation, memory, and motivation. Low testosterone (Low T) has become increasingly common in aging men. Symptoms include:
Accurately diagnosing low T requires evaluating symptoms along with blood testing for total and free testosterone levels. New Beginnings HRT Clinic provides state-of-the-art testosterone testing and comprehensive symptom analysis.
Testosterone therapy can produce life-changing improvements for men with low T:
Testosterone replacement therapy utilizes bioidentical testosterone preparations including injectable, transdermal and pellet delivery systems.
Estrogen plays vital roles in female health, with responsibilities ranging from reproductive and sexual function to bone integrity, cardiovascular protection, skin elasticity, and brain health.
Declining estrogen is nearly universal during perimenopause and menopause. Symptoms may include:
Blood testing can diagnose estrogen deficiency by measuring estradiol and FSH levels. Saliva testing provides added sensitivity.
Estrogen therapy offers a broad spectrum of benefits:
New Beginnings HRT Clinic offers bioidentical estradiol via creams, tablets, patches and pellet implants. Progestogens are included to avoid unopposed estrogen effects.
The thyroid gland produces metabolic hormones T4 and T3. Low thyroid function causes fatigue, weight gain, memory issues and more. New Beginnings HRT Clinic diagnoses thyroid disorders through blood tests and clinical evaluation. Customized thyroid hormone replacement improves energy, focus, fitness and wellbeing.
The adrenal glands produce cortisol, regulating stress adaptation, inflammation, immune function, blood sugar, circulation and more. Declining output can trigger unrelenting exhaustion despite adequate sleep. Testing adrenal hormones guides treatment such as DHEA and cortisol supplementation when indicated.
Growth hormone (GH) maintains lean muscle mass, bone density, exercise capacity and youthful skin texture. In adulthood, GH production plummets, associated with increased belly fat, thinning skin, low vitality and risk for cardiovascular disease. At New Beginnings HRT Clinic, IGF-1 blood testing is used to evaluate growth hormone deficiency. Where appropriate, physician-supervised growth hormone therapy enhances body composition, energy levels and metabolic parameters.
Comprehensive lab testing allows accurate diagnosis of hormonal deficiencies. New Beginnings HRT Clinic utilizes accredited diagnostic labs providing reliable, timely results. Follow-up testing helps fine-tune dosing.
There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to hormone therapy. Our practitioners develop personalized plans based on patient symptoms, test results, medical history and physiology. Treatment is adjusted over time for optimal restoration.
Hormone levels fluctuate, so ongoing oversight is key. Patients at New Beginnings HRT Clinic receive regular follow-up and support. Open communication ensures therapy remains on track - doses are adjusted as needed based on continual symptom and blood analysis.
In addition to hormone optimization, recommendations may include nutrition, supplements, stress management and sensible fitness regimens to control cortisol and insulin, support detoxification, boost immunity and drive peak performance.
