Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted by glands and travel through the bloodstream to trigger functions in tissues and organs. They help regulate crucial body processes like metabolism, growth, sleep cycles, reproduction, cognition, mood, sexual function, and more. When hormone levels are balanced, everything works smoothly. But when levels become too high or low, you may experience troubling signs and symptoms.
There are a few key factors that can throw your hormones out of balance:
If you suspect a hormone deficiency, it's crucial to get tested and pursue treatment right away instead of waiting. The earlier treatment begins, the more likely you are to find relief from symptoms, prevent long-term health consequences, slow the aging process, retain vitality, and enhance your overall well-being. Our knowledgeable staff at Harmony Hormone Clinic provides specialized testing and therapies to help patients optimize their hormone health.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) involves prescribing plant-derived hormones that are molecularly identical to those your body produces. This includes estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid hormones, and others. BHRT is customized based on your lab testing to meet your individual hormonal needs.
Carefully-dosed bioidentical hormones offer a wide range of evidence-based benefits:
Harmony Hormone Clinic provides bioidentical hormones through:
We work closely with each patient to determine the optimal hormones and delivery methods to greatly improve their well-being while minimizing risk.
The ovaries produce most of the estrogen women need. Estrogen synthesis drops off around perimenopause due to:
Estrogen deficiency emerges fully at menopause when periods stop completely.
Without sufficient estrogen, many women endure debilitating menopausal symptoms:
The corpus luteum, a temporary ovarian structure, produces progesterone to support pregnancy after ovulation. With menstrual cycle changes, inadequate luteal function leads to:
Progesterone alleviates estrogen dominance. Without this balance, estrogen’s stimulating effect may lead to:
Harmony Hormone Clinic carefully crafts a bioidentical hormone restoration protocol to resolve deficiencies of estrogen, progesterone or both.
For estrogen support, we often recommend:
For progesterone support, our go-to options include:
Based on testing, symptoms and health profile, we determine the optimal bioidentical hormones and delivery methods to help women thrive through perimenopause, menopause and beyond.
In men, testosterone originates mostly from the testes. Over time, testosterone synthesis may lessen related to:
Without adequate testosterone, men may struggle with unwelcome symptoms like:
If clinical testing confirms testosterone deficiency, Harmony Hormone Clinic offers effective TRT - testosterone replacement therapy solutions like:
We personalize treatment based on each man’s needs, preferences, sensitivities and objectives to successfully restore healthy testosterone status.
Hormone therapy can help treat some mental health conditions. Studies have found that hormone treatments like estrogen can lessen symptoms of psychosis and schizophrenia in some women. Though more research is still needed, this suggests hormone regulation may play an important yet overlooked role in mental as well as physical health.
Because hormone balance is highly individualized, comprehensive testing is the foundation for appropriate treatment. We utilize advanced clinical diagnostics to check levels of:
Genes influence how you metabolize and utilize hormones. We offer cutting-edge genetic panels to expose variations that guide precision hormone therapy.
This non-invasive profiling detects important hormone metabolites and key nutritional indicators via a complete dried urine panel.
Simple at-home saliva testing kits measure free active hormone levels at different times throughout the day. This shows fluctuations indicative of deficiencies.
We believe analytical testing both empowers patients and enables our practitioners to develop life-changing treatment plans.
The clinicians at Harmony Hormone Clinic pursue advanced education in anti-aging medicine, bioidentical hormones, genetics, nutrition and functional health. We constantly analyze the latest scientific data to refine our protocols. Our nurses, medical assistants and support team share our whole-patient mindset.
Each person possesses a unique clinical profile and hormone needs.
