Bioidentical Hormones replacement Timonium, MD - Renew Medical HRT Clinic

Understanding Bioidentical Hormones

Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. As we age or due to medical conditions, our bodies may not produce adequate levels of key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Replacing these hormones through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can provide relief from deficiency symptoms and long-term health benefits when prescribed appropriately under medical supervision.

At Renew Medical HRT Clinic of Timonium, our physicians specialize in BHRT using a personalized approach to help patients achieve hormonal balance and an improved quality of life. We offer both hormone pellet implants for sustained release over months and traditional prescriptions as needed per patient factors.

Conditions Treated with Bioidentical HRT

Bioidentical hormone therapy can be used to treat hormone deficiencies and imbalances associated with:

Proper diagnosis and treatment of hormone imbalances is crucial both for relieving deficiency symptoms in the near term and reducing future health risks. Our experienced physicians take the time to accurately test hormone levels and determine if BHRT is appropriate. We customize treatment plans to each patient's unique needs and goals through ongoing monitoring and dosage adjustments.

Advantages of Bioidentical Over Synthetic Hormones

Bioidentical hormones are made from plant sources and are biochemically identical to endogenous human hormones, allowing seamless physiological action. In contrast, traditional synthetic hormone replacement medications often fail to fully relieve deficiency symptoms or carry risks of side effects because the molecular structures are slightly altered.

Research shows bioidentical hormones are safe and effective when used at proper doses based on regular blood testing. Synthetic progestins may elevate heart disease risk whereas progesterone protects cardiovascular health.

At Renew Medical HRT Clinic, we only prescribe FDA-approved, pharmacy-grade bioidenticals for optimal purity, potency, and safety oversight. Compounded bioidenticals lack regulatory screening. We follow best medical practices for BHRT to maximize benefits and minimize adverse reactions.

TRT Therapy for Low Testosterone

Diagnosing Low Testosterone

As men age, testosterone production begins declining after 30, accelerating after 50. But “low T” should not be dismissed as just a normal part of aging. Proper testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) under medical guidance can safely and effectively restore healthy testosterone levels to help men feel youthful and energetic again.

Symptoms of low testosterone may include:

Blood testing is required to accurately measure testosterone and other hormone levels before starting TRT. A doctor must rule out an underlying condition causing deficiency. Normal total testosterone ranges are generally 300-1000 ng/dL for adult males and 15-70 ng/dL for females.

Benefits of Testosterone Therapy

Clinical research confirms testosterone therapy can:

At Renew Medical HRT Clinic, our medical team strives to help patients realize their best physical and mental wellbeing through properly administered testosterone therapy customized to each individual’s physiology and objectives. We offer both sustained-release testosterone pellet implants and traditional injections/gels.

Hormone Replacement Protocols at Renew Medical HRT Clinic

Getting Started with Treatment

Beginning any hormone replacement regimen requires thorough medical examinations, testing, and close physician monitoring to ensure protocols achieve treatment goals safely.

At Renew Medical HRT Clinic of Timonium, our standard process for bioidentical hormone therapy is:

  1. Comprehensive history and physical - Medical history, exam, lab tests for deficiencies
  2. Baseline hormone blood tests - Testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, etc.
  3. Review results and recommend treatment - Pellet implants, creams, pills
  4. Consent process and administration - Discuss options, finalize plan details, answer questions
  5. Follow-up blood tests - At 4-6 weeks retest same hormones
  6. Monitor and adjust dosing - Every 3-4 months until stable levels

Ongoing follow-ups every 6 months help sustain optimal hormonal balance tailored to each patient’s changing needs over time. We partner with patients for the long-term through open communication and clinical precision.

Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Implants

Sustained-release hormone pellet therapy offers remarkably convenient, consistent dosing over months with a single in-office procedure for implant insertion. The bioidentical hormones diffuse gradually to maintain youthful blood levels until a "refill" is needed after typically 3-6 months.

The implantation technique uses a tiny incision and takes just 5-10 minutes in our office. Local anesthetic eliminates any discomfort. The dissolvable pellet(s) provide 24x7 time-release delivery without worrying about remembering daily pills.

We offer testosterone, estradiol, or progesterone implants for men and women. Dosage amounts customize duration. Combination implants may optimize synergistic benefits. Post-insertion care is minimal - avoid soaking for 5 days, then resume normal activities.

Importance of Prompt Hormone Deficiency Treatment

Hormonal balance is essential to physical health, mental wellbeing, and quality of life. When our bodies' natural production declines due to aging, stress, or medical conditions, deficiency symptoms manifest and risk of future disease rises over time.

Seeking proper testing and treatment without delay provides the best opportunity to restore optimal hormone levels, relieve discomfort from menopausal or andropausal changes, avoid ongoing tissue degeneration, and support healthy aging.

Renew Medical HRT Clinic specializes in precision bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) customized for each patient through initial blood tests determining exact deficiency levels, regular monitoring of treatment progress, and dosage adjustments to meet needs as they evolve.

We partner with patients for life by working closely with their care team. Our mission focuses on helping to detect suboptimal hormone production early before advanced disease progression and then providing safe, effective relief through properly prescribed natural hormones identical to those our bodies make.

Interesting fact

Many people don't realize that bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. They come from plant sources, but require processing to make them bioidentical, and there is limited evidence on long-term safety or ideal dosing. More research is still needed in this area.
