Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age, our hormone levels decline, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Replacing diminishing hormones with bioidentical versions can provide immense relief.
Bioidentical hormones used for therapy include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and others. They are typically derived from plant sources and are available in capsules, creams, injections, pellets, and more.
Hormone levels fall due to natural aging, stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, toxins, medications, illness, surgery, genetics, and other factors. Left untreated, deficiencies can undermine health and quality of life.
Supplementing with bioidentical hormones tailored to one's hormonal status can replenish levels, allowing patients to feel their best.
Correcting hormonal imbalances with bioidentical hormones offers wide-ranging benefits:
Here at Renewal Hormone Clinic in Marshfield, we specialize in precision bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). We are dedicated to diagnosing deficiencies and crafting custom treatment plans to restore balance, health, and vitality.
We begin by assessing each patient's hormonal status through comprehensive lab testing. This allows us to identify shortfalls and determine optimal hormone dosages and delivery methods.
Treatment plans are completely personalized and may incorporate:
In addition to bioidentical hormones, treatment frequently includes nutritional support, supplements, diet changes, and lifestyle recommendations. Follow-up testing allows for precision dose adjustments over time.
We recognize hormonal balance is not one-size-fits-all - plans are tailored for each unique individual. Our goal is to restore energy, health, and an overall sense of wellbeing.

Let's explore key elements of successful bioidentical hormone replacement more deeply.
We cannot emphasize enough the importance of comprehensive diagnostic hormone testing to assess deficiencies accurately before starting therapy.
At minimum, a complete panel should evaluate levels of testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, DHEA-S, cortisol, and thyroid hormones T3 and T4, along with related blood markers. Saliva testing is also extremely useful.
Testing provides the facts needed to customize appropriate treatment regimens. Follow up assessments allow for precision tuning of protocols over time.
Custom-compounded bioidentical hormones are formulated at specialized pharmacies to match exactly the dosage prescribed by the practitioner.
Standard manufactured products provide limited fixed doses, often too high or too low. In contrast, custom formulations feature precise amounts tailored to the patient's hormonal status and needs.
Bioidentical hormones are available in various forms to fit individual patient needs and preferences:
Doctors determine optimal delivery methods - often starting with creams then adjusting based on patient response and repeat testing.
Successful bioidentical hormone replacement requires careful medical management by a trained specialist, typically a doctor focused on functional, regenerative, or anti-aging medicine.
Hormones are powerful and demand vigilant oversight. Providers must regularly assess progress, order appropriate testing, and modify protocols as needed. Patients should schedule regular follow up visits even after balance stabilizes.
Finding an experienced bioidentical hormone doctor is as important as the therapy itself. Ongoing partnership ensures continued benefits and safety.
Bioidentical hormones serve as the foundation for wellness, but must be complemented by healthy lifestyle choices to realize full benefits.
We educate patients on key strategies to amplify the power of hormone therapy:
Some patients may benefit from additional treatments:
Lifestyle optimization complements hormone therapy for amplifying energy, health, and longevity.
Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Large, long-term studies comparing health outcomes of bioidenticals versus synthetics are lacking, so claims of superiority lack sufficient evidence. More research is needed.
If frustrating symptoms suggest your hormones are out of balance, we encourage you to reach out to Renewal Hormone Clinic for cutting-edge diagnostic testing and bioidentical hormone therapy.
With an individualized precision medicine approach, we can identify deficiencies and craft customized treatment plans to renew vibrancy and wellbeing.
