Hormone imbalances can cause various unpleasant symptoms and increase health risks. Getting timely treatment of hormonal imbalance is so important for wellbeing. The Balance - Hormone Medical Clinic located in Florham Park specializes in helping residents restore hormonal balance. We offer customized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) plans to alleviate deficiency symptoms and promote wellness so you feel your best again.
Hormone therapy provides numerous health and wellness benefits for both men and women experiencing hormonal imbalance (also called hormone deficiency) including:
Determining the optimal customized hormone replacement plan begins with thorough diagnostic testing. Our clinic partners with specialized local laboratories for comprehensive assessments that may include:
- Estradiol - primary estrogen - FSH and LH - pituitary reproductive hormones - Progesterone - supports healthy menstrual cycle
- Testosterone - primary male sex hormone - Free and total testosterone - bioavailable vs bound testosterone - Estradiol - some converts from testosterone
- DHEA and DHEAS - precursor hormones - Thyroid - T3, T4, TSH thyroid hormones
The comprehensive picture these tests provide allow our medical team to best evaluate hormonal status, causes of imbalance, and customize optimal treatment plans. We emphasize the importance of retesting on therapy to ensure hormones are optimized for your unique physiology and needs.
The Balance - Hormone Medical Clinic specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement tailored to your individual hormonal needs and physiology. Bioidentical means the hormones have a molecular structure identical to those your body produces naturally. Our medical providers use their expertise to determine the right formulations, doses and delivery methods of bioidentical estrogens, testosterone, DHEA and more to restore optimal balance efficiently.
Custom plans may involve:
We also provide guidance on important lifestyle factors like nutrition, exercise, stress management and adequate sleep that support hormonal health and therapy success. Follow up lab testing allows for precise dose adjustments over time for optimal wellness on therapy. We emphasize prompt evaluation and treatment when symptoms arise to avoid prolonged distress.
Hormone therapy can help transgender individuals match their physical characteristics with their gender identity. Studies show that when paired with counseling, hormone therapy greatly improves mental health outcomes and quality of life for many transgender people seeking transition.
There are several common reasons hormones fall out of balance. Understanding root causes guides treatment plans.
As part of natural aging processes, reproductive hormone levels start declining around age 30. More rapid declines occur during perimenopause and menopause in women and andropause in men. Low energy, hot flashes, low libido and other unpleasant menopause symptoms or low T symptoms often prompt patients to seek treatment.
Certain medical conditions directly impact hormonal glands like the thyroid, ovaries, testes and adrenal glands. For example, pituitary tumors, inflammation or autoimmune disease can disrupt signals to hormone producing glands. Medications like corticosteroids also impact hormone levels.
Factors like poor diet, excess body fat levels, inadequate sleep and high stress deplete hormones over time. Optimizing these areas combined with hormone replacement helps many patients feel markedly better.
Genetics also play a key role in risk for hormonal decline, sensitivity to falling hormones, and optimal dosing needs on replacement therapy. Our clinic tailors plans based on risks and feedback from lab testing and symptom monitoring.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) offers life-changing benefits for men with clinically low testosterone levels causing symptoms like fatigue, low sex drive, reduced strength and endurance, mood issues and more.
After confirming low T with blood testing, TRT treatment plans aim to restore testosterone status back to optimal healthy ranges with bioidentical hormones. This commonly involves testosterone injections, gels or implanted pellets dosed to meet individualized needs.
What does the TRT process look like?
The medical team at The Balance - Hormone Medical Clinic has years of experience successfully implementing customized TRT plans with excellent patient outcomes. We guide you through each step of the process to alleviate low testosterone symptoms and help you thrive again.
