Bioidentical hormone therapy involves using hormones that are molecularly identical to those produced naturally in the human body to treat deficiencies and imbalances. At Rejuvenate Clinic, we provide customized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to help patients find relief from symptoms and restore well-being.
Bioidentical hormone therapy uses hormones synthesized from plants that are biologically equivalent to human hormones. This allows the therapy to integrate smoothly with the body's natural processes.
The key benefits of bioidentical hormones include:
Bioidentical hormones used in replacement therapy typically include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, thyroid, melatonin, and human growth hormone.
Bioidentical hormone therapy can help both men and women whose hormone levels have dropped or become imbalanced, leading to undesirable symptoms.
Common signs and symptoms of hormone deficiency include:
The first step is getting hormone testing done to check levels of key hormones like estradiol, testosterone, progesterone, DHEA-S, T3, T4, TSH, etc.
Based on test results and clinical evaluation of symptoms, our physicians can determine which bioidentical hormones a patient needs to restore balance and optimal levels.
We help patients understand their lab reports and what each hormone level means for their health. Our expertise ensures the proper diagnosis of any deficiencies.
Rejuvenate Clinic specializes in custom-compounding bioidentical hormone replacement therapy based on each patient's unique needs.
After evaluating symptoms, medical history, and diagnostic tests, our physicians design an individualized regimen that addresses the patient's specific deficiencies and imbalances.
The custom-compounded BHRT protocols include:
We educate patients about correct administration and optimal results from their customized bioidentical hormone therapy prescription.
Once patients begin their customized bioidentical hormone replacement regimen, we schedule follow-up visits to track progress and make adjustments as needed.
Hormone testing is repeated at intervals to ensure hormone levels are being restored without exceeding normal ranges. We also monitor for any potential side effects.
Based on patient feedback and lab results, physicians may adjust the strength, dose, or delivery method of the bioidentical hormones to achieve better outcomes.
The goal is balancing hormones for ideal functioning while avoiding hormone extremes in either direction. Patience and persistence lead to full benefits.
In addition to bioidentical hormone therapy, we provide lifestyle and nutrition guidance to help patients maximize results:
Adopting healthy lifestyle habits combined with bioidentical hormones enables better outcomes in correcting deficiencies, preventing future imbalances, and slowing aging.
Despite proven benefits, there are some prevailing myths surrounding bioidentical hormone therapy that we frequently encounter. Let's separate facts from fiction:
Myth: Bioidentical hormones have not been scientifically tested for safety and efficacy.
Fact: Extensive research demonstrates bioidentical hormones are safe and effective when correctly balanced to physiologic levels.
Myth: Compounded BHRT products lack quality control compared to FDA-approved drugs.
Fact: Our compounded hormones meet stringent regulations for purity, potency, and stability.
Myth: Bioidentical hormones cause risks of heart disease and breast cancer.
Fact: Balanced bioidentical hormones do NOT increase these health risks according to studies. Excess estrogens associated with higher risks are NOT used in properly monitored bioidentical HRT.
Myth: Soy, yams, or "natural products" equal bioidentical hormones.
Fact: The molecular structure of actual bioidentical hormones matters. Self-treating without HRT expertise often backfires.

| Bioidentical hormones have not been scientifically tested for safety and efficacy | Extensive research demonstrates bioidentical hormones are safe and effective when correctly balanced to physiologic levels |
| Compounded BHRT products lack quality control compared to FDA-approved drugs | Our compounded hormones meet stringent regulations for purity, potency, and stability |
| Bioidentical hormones cause risks of heart disease and breast cancer | Balanced bioidentical hormones do NOT increase these health risks according to studies. Excess estrogens associated with higher risks are NOT used in properly monitored bioidentical HRT |

With expert oversight, balanced bioidentical hormone therapy is scientifically proven safer and more beneficial than often portrayed.
Rejuvenate Clinic offers state-of-the-art bioidentical hormone replacement, keeping pace with the latest advancements:
We invest in proven innovations that shape the future of truly personalized, ever more effective bioidentical hormone replacement. Our commitment to science-based precision sets us apart.
Rejuvenate Clinic offers various bioidentical hormone delivery options, each with pros and cons:
Each option has advantages and disadvantages that depend on the patient's lifestyle, preferences, and unique needs. Our experts help determine the optimal delivery methods.
| Method | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Tablets | Convenient oral route | Must be metabolized through the digestive system and liver, which can lead to side effects. Gastrointestinal absorption can be unpredictable |
| Transdermal Gels | Absorbed through the skin, so avoid digestive issues. Simple to adjust dosage strengths. | Must take care to avoid transferring hormones to partners/children via skin contact |
| Injections | Allows precise dosing and avoids digestive inactivation | Peak blood levels may exceed physiologic, which can cause side effects. Injections must be administered regularly |
| Sublingual Drops | Rapid absorption directly into circulation via membranes under the tongue. Avoid excess liver metabolism of hormones | Frequency of administration can be inconvenient |
| Pellet Implants | Steady hormone release over ~5 months from small implants placed under the skin. Avoid remembering frequent oral doses. | Additional minor medical procedure is required for insertions |
Analysis shows the most suitable option depends on the patient's needs and lifestyle. Our experts identify the optimal bioidentical hormone preparations, dose strengths, and delivery methods for each individual.
For men, declining testosterone, in particular, has profound impacts on both physical and mental health:
Research clearly shows testosterone therapy effectively relieves these symptoms when levels drop below optimal, enhancing men's vitality and virility.
Benefits include: regaining lean muscle mass despite aging, youthful energy and endurance for workouts, weight loss and fat reduction, increased bone strength, improved mood, motivation, and cognition, greater sexual desire and performance, including firmer erections and more pleasurable orgasms.
Rejuvenate Clinic restores testosterone alongside other key androgens using bioidentical hormones to significantly uplift men's health, function, and quality of life.
"After my divorce, I felt completely depleted - exhausted all the time with zero sex drive," says John Smith, one of our patients. "Since starting testosterone replacement at Rejuvenate Clinic, my energy, confidence, and bedroom performance are as strong in my 50s as when I was decades younger. I feel like myself again!"
His experience echoes many men who undergo remarkable renewals through expert male hormone therapy.
While alleviating deficiency symptoms, balanced bioidentical hormones also confer anti-aging effects more broadly:
In both men and women, hormone optimization thus helps sustain vibrancy, health, and function across the lifespan, forestalling aspects of aging.
"I'm 69 years old, but people are stunned when I mention my age," chuckles Sarah Wilson, a longtime patient. "With bioidentical hormone replacement, I have the energy and vitality I did decades ago. My friends can't believe the difference between me and other women my age. It's one of the best things I've done for staying young."
The regenerative power of hormones keeps people thriving not just today but invests in longevity decades down the road.
