As we age, our bodies undergo natural changes, including a decline in hormone production. This hormonal imbalance can lead to a variety of unpleasant symptoms that can significantly impact our overall well-being. At Slater Aesthetics, with locations in Atlanta and Warner Robins, Dr. Monte D. Slater offers Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), also known as natural hormone replacement therapy, to help men and women optimize their bodies as they navigate the aging process.
All of us heard of Hormone Replacement Therapy, but Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a new more natural and more medically safe way to balance hormones in women and men. BHRT uses hormones that are identical to those produced naturally by the human body in younger years. Unlike traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which uses synthetic hormones derived from animal sources, BHRT utilizes hormones derived from plant sources, such as yams or soybeans.
The key difference between BHRT and traditional HRT lies in the molecular structure of the hormones used. Bioidentical hormones have the same chemical structure as the hormones produced by the body, allowing them to mimic the body’s natural hormones more closely. This is believed to result in fewer side effects and women and men can rest assured that it is safe.
Restoring Vitality As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline, which can lead to a variety of symptoms affecting overall well-being. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy for men focuses on replenishing testosterone levels to mitigate these symptoms and enhance vitality.
Common symptoms of hormone imbalance and ultimately low testosterone in men include:
By addressing these issues through BHRT, men can experience a range of benefits, including enhanced muscle mass, increased libido, boosted energy levels, mood stabilization, improved sleep, hair retention, and a reduction in body fat.
Balancing Hormones for Optimal Health in women involves balancing estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is particularly beneficial with the start of menopause, during menopause and perimenopause when hormone levels fluctuate drastically, leading to a range of uncomfortable symptoms.
Symptoms of hormone imbalance in women can include:
By addressing these issues through BHRT, women can experience a range of benefits, including reduced hot flashes, stable mood, enhanced libido, weight management, increased energy, and improved cognitive function.
