Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) has become an extremely popular option for both men and women looking to correct hormone imbalances related to aging and hormone deficiency. Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. At Hormone Harmony Clinic in Clinton Township, we specialize in customized BHRT programs to help patients restore optimal hormone levels and improve symptoms.
Key benefits: - Relieve symptoms like fatigue, depression, low libido - Reduce risk of future health problems - Improve sleep, cardiovascular health, weight, skin - Doctors who prescribe bioidentical hormones tailor treatments
The first step is diagnosing any hormone deficiencies. We provide comprehensive panels that check levels of key hormones like estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, DHEA, and more based on age and symptoms. Doctors determine which hormones are out of balance and need to be supplemented through BHRT.
Common symptoms: - Hot flashes, night sweats - Vaginal dryness, pain with intercourse - Erectile dysfunction - Depressed mood, irritability - Lack of energy, mental fog, poor sleep

Bioidentical hormone therapy is most effective when combined with healthy lifestyle changes. We provide tips on nutrition, fitness, stress reduction and more. Common recommendations include:
Focus on whole, unprocessed foods high in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, healthy fats and fiber. Stay hydrated and limit sugar, alcohol and caffeine.
Aim for 150 minutes per week of moderate activity like walking, cycling or water workouts. Build muscle strength 2 days/week. Local gyms like Clinton Fitness have senior classes.
Get 7-9 hours nightly. Develop good sleep habits like avoiding screens before bed. Consider supplements like melatonin if sleep remains disrupted.
Make time for relaxing activities like yoga, meditation, massages, camping trips or days at the spa. Build social connections. Consider counseling for mood issues.

Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Large, long-term studies comparing health outcomes of bioidenticals versus synthetics are lacking, so claims of superior safety and efficacy often rely more on ideology than evidence.
There are many reasons to choose Hormone Harmony Clinic over other providers for customized bioidentical hormone therapy:
Our clinic specializes in hormone balance with experienced bioidentical hormone doctors and staff. We stay current on latest advancements in testing and BHRT protocols.
We vet compounding pharmacies for quality standards, purity testing and safety processes. We monitor patients closely and adjust doses appropriately.
Our Clinton Township location offers easy access for labs, injections, and provider appointments. We coordinate care with patients' other providers.
No pre-set doses or standardized treatments. We customize and monitor plans for each patient's unique needs and goals.
In addition to hormone therapy, we offer lifestyle recommendations on nutrition, supplements, fitness and more for optimal wellness.
The sooner hormone deficiencies and imbalances are identified and properly treated, the more effectively symptoms can typically be managed or reversed and future health risks mitigated.
As we age, hormone levels gradually decline. But "normal" reference ranges are very broad. Mild to moderate deficiencies can still cause disruptive symptoms long before levels drop low enough to show up as abnormal on lab tests.
We see patients daily who suffered from sometimes debilitating symptoms for years before receiving correct testing and treatment from our clinic. Don't brush off ongoing fatigue, sexual issues, or mental fog - get tested! Bioidentical hormones and lifestyle changes can help you reclaim your health, vitality and quality of life.
