BHRT PROCESS
How do I proceed in order to receive treatment?
A complete medical history and physical examination along with the appropriate laboratory testing is first done. To properly evaluate your hormones, blood test should include a free and total testosterone, estradiol, and in addition a thyroid-stimulating hormone, a follicle-stimulating hormone level for women and a prostate-specific antigen for men. Women who are over 40 also require an annual mammogram. The precise amounts of estrogen, progesterone, and androgen for each woman and man's therapy is then determined.
It is important to keep in mind that everybody is an individual, no one size (dose of medicine) fits all. The correct amount of bioidentical hormones is determined based on laboratory studies, severity of symptoms, age, gender, and body size.
Once your hormones are rebalanced and replenished, you can begin to return to a more healthy and vibrant way of life!
