Reclaim your vitality.

What is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy?

As we age, hormones that orchestrate bodily functions decrease production. Hormone therapies correct and fine-tune these intricate biological rhythms, reviving your body’s natural cadence.

Personalized treatments at NW Regen help you rediscover your inner equilibrium and vigor with our Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHRT),  a safe, well-researched and proven treatment using hormones derived from plant sources that are chemically similar to the hormones your body naturally produces. 

BHRT is administered in a variety of ways,  including  patches, pills, injectables, pellets, and creams. 

Most often, this treatment is used to mitigate symptoms of menopause, however BHRT can benefit both men and women at various stages of life. Tailored treatment can effectively rejuvenate your overall wellness, enhance libido, improve mental sharpness, and boost youthful energy,

NW Regen’s Very Personalized Approach

Your particular blend of hormones, unique to your body, is key to unlocking a rejuvenated self. 

As your hormone levels naturally decrease with age, they affect not just fertility but also brain, bone, muscle, joint, and cardiovascular health. Male bodies’ ability to produce hormones declines gradually, while women’s bodies undergo drastic changes when their ovaries stop producing natural hormones. This decline can accelerate the aging process and contribute chronic disease. Both men and women need to work with someone who can help find the best therapy options for your unique body.

NW Regen’s physicians will answer your questions and help you navigate the often complicated world of hormones and hormone therapy. Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHRT) is available in a variety of forms, and we work with you to determine the best, most personalized treatment for you.

Personalized Hormone Therapy FAQs

What is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT)?

BHRT is used to treat a multitude of symptoms and health consequences of hormonal imbalance. Most often, this treatment is used to mitigate symptoms of menopause, however BHRT can benefit both men and women at various stages of life. BHRT is available as patches, pills, injectables, pellets, and creams.

Benefits include improved energy, mental clarity, fat loss, muscle gain, improved sleep quallity, and better libido. 

Am I too old for BHRT?

Research demonstrates the most benefit for women is close to menopause as possible. However, if you are further than 10 years past menopause, this is a conversation to have with your provider. 

What is hormone 'pellet' therapy, specifically?

Small pellets are inserted subcutaneously under the skin during a simple and quick office procedure. These pellets are purely hormones – no additional additives. They will slowly dissolve in the body and release hormones at steady levels.

Most women will need to replace their pellets every 3-4 months, while men typically will replace them every 4-6 months.

Insurance does not currently cover this treatment but we are able to provide a superbill on request.
