What are hormones, and how do they work?
Hormones are chemical messengers produced by glands in the endocrine system, and they play a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions. In women, hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone influence reproductive health, mood, metabolism, and bone density. Estrogen primarily regulates the menstrual cycle and supports pregnancy, while progesterone prepares the body for potential pregnancy and maintains it. Testosterone, though often associated with men, is essential for energy levels and libido in women. A delicate balance of these hormones is vital for overall health and well-being.
Symptoms of hormone imbalance in women:
- Irregular or absent menstrual periods
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
- Fatigue and low energy levels
- Sleep disturbances and insomnia
- Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
- Decreased libido or sexual dysfunction
- Thinning hair or hair loss
- Dry skin and changes in skin texture
- Memory problems or difficulty concentrating
What is women's hormone therapy?
Women's hormone therapy involves using hormones to alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances, particularly during menopause and other life stages. This therapy aims to restore hormonal balance, enhancing the quality of life by addressing various symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and fatigue. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we administer bioidentical hormones using pellets that remain effective for 3 to 6 months.
Bioidentical hormones
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body. They are derived from plant sources and are designed to mimic the hormonal activity of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in women. Because they closely resemble natural hormones, bioidentical hormones can provide effective relief from symptoms of hormonal imbalance with fewer side effects than synthetic alternatives. Personalized hormone testing helps determine the most appropriate dosages and combinations to achieve optimal results.
Hormone pellet therapy
Hormone pellet therapy is a cutting-edge method of delivering bioidentical hormones. Small pellets, typically made from natural sources, are inserted under the skin, allowing for a steady release of hormones into the bloodstream over time. This offers several benefits, including convenience, consistent hormone levels, and reduced side effects. Patients often experience significant symptom relief and improved well-being as hormone levels are gradually optimized. The results last 3 to 6 months, eliminating the need for daily or weekly pills or injections.
Benefits of women's hormone pellet therapy:
- Provides consistent hormone levels throughout the day
- Reduces the frequency of administration compared to other methods
- Minimizes fluctuations that can lead to mood swings
- Offers a natural approach using bioidentical hormones
- Enhances absorption and effectiveness
- Improves quality of life by alleviating menopausal symptoms
- Tailored dosages based on individual hormone needs
- Decreases the risk of side effects associated with synthetic hormones
- Supports overall well-being and vitality in women
