BHRT Treatment for Menin Seattle

As the body ages, it undergoes various hormonal changes that can affect your health and happiness. For men, your natural production of testosterone peaks in your late twenties and then declines at a continuous rate. This reduction in testosterone levels can lead to some uncomfortable long-term effects.

Should you consider bio-identical hormone replacement therapy?

Although this was once thought to be more common in older generations, many young men in their twenties suffer from low testosterone levels. Leading a sedentary lifestyle, high-stress work environments, and other factors all contribute to lower rates of hormones which can lead to weight gain, memory decline, fatigue, and muscle loss - some of the most commonly known symptoms of hormonal imbalance.

How is bioidentical hormone replacement different from other types of hormone replacements?

Bioidentical hormones are compounded from naturally occurring sources and are designed to be structurally indistinguishable from endogenous human hormones. The term “bioidentical” refers to the exact-match replication that can be credited for the reduced number of side effects and risks patients experience, as well as the effectiveness of the treatment.

Am I a good candidate for bio-identical hormone replacement?

Men experiencing hormonal imbalance often write off the symptoms as a natural part of growing older. However, men as young as 30 can start to experience hormone issues. The telltale signs may suddenly crop up or accumulate slowly over time. If you’re experiencing weight gain, depression, sexual dysfunction, irregular sleep patterns, or fatigue, it might be time to seek help and investigate bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
