Aging is a natural process that requires you to accept changes to your mind and body.
However, you may be surprised to learn, your provider can improve many aging changes and conditions using simple techniques. And, one of those techniques is Hormone Replacement Therapy.
Hormone loss may be a natural part of the aging process. However, medical advances provide the ability to safely add hormones to your system; thereby, achieving hormonal balance.
And, this balance may alleviate the signs providers typically associate with aging.
What Happens When Your Hormones Are Out of Balance?
Hormones are vital chemical messengers. And, the production of hormones like estradiol and testosterone slows down or completely ceases as we get older.
And, this loss causes our bodies to go through significant changes such as:
- Dry and saggy skin
- Muscle tone and mass loss
- Vaginal tissue thinning
- Decreased vaginal lubrication
- Weakening or disappearance of erections
- Sex desire diminishing
- Bone mineral density decreases
- Depression
- Weight gain
- Mood swings
- Foggy thinking
- Memory problems
- Fatigue
- Insomnia
Also, hormone imbalances can predicate a heightened risk for:
- Alzheimer’s
- Dementia
- Diabetes
- Cardiovascular disease
- Osteoporosis
Most importantly, the consequences of living with hormone depletion are substantial. And up until recently, providers told us we had to grin and bear it.
But, that’s no longer true! For example, studies show Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) to treat many of the concerns associated with aging effectively.
Restoring Hormones to Youthful Levels
Above all, restoring hormones to youthful levels supports:
- Bone health
- Brain function
- Cardiovascular health
We can restore hormone balance using BHRT quickly and effectively. That is to say, BHRT delivers a low dose of bioidentical hormones into your bloodstream around-the-clock.
It’s Not Synthetic Hormone Replacement Therapy
For instance, bio-identical hormones are identical to human hormones.
- Fit perfectly with receptor cells
- Metabolize normally
- Perform tasks like human hormones
However, synthetic or conjugated hormones are not the same as human hormones. For example, they have the following differences, which is why they have serious side effects and risks.
- Molecular structure
- Receptor affinity
- Absorption capabilities
- Other their functional traits
Pellet Method
BHRT comes in a variety of forms including:
- Creams
- Injections
- Implanted pellets
- Patches
- Gels
Dr. Norton prefers the pellet method. Why? With pellets, you receive a customized blend of hormones explicitly made for your needs.
You don’t have to deal with messy creams or gels, and you don’t have to remember to apply them or take them every day. During an in-office procedure, the practitioner inserts the tiny pellets into the fatty tissue just under your skin.
Your body prompts the pellet to release hormones when it needs them, based on physical exertion or mental stress. Super simple and effective!
