Although menopause is a natural part of aging, that doesn’t mean you have to just live with unpleasant menopause symptoms like hot flashes, insomnia, hair loss, weight gain, and mood changes. Menopause symptoms can be relieved with help from Renew Youth. We can offer many different treatment options for helping you to balance your hormones and find relief from menopause symptoms, including hormone replacement using bioidentical hormones in Allston MA.
What are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones have the exact same chemical structure as your own hormones, so your body accepts them as the real deal and uses them just like your natural hormones Synthetic hormones, on the other hand, contain slight deviations from the chemical structure of a natural hormone and are not accepted as well by the body. Use of synthetic hormones has been shown to increase certain risk factors for negative outcomes. For example, the synthetic form of progesterone, progestin, has been linked to increased risk of breast cancer. Bioidentical progesterone, on the other hand, has actually been shown to decrease the risk of this cancer. At Renew Youth, we are committed to providing the very best care for our patients and that’s why we use bioidentical hormones in Allston MA exclusively.
Using Bioidentical Hormones in Allston MA Safely and Correctly
In order for bioidentical hormones in Allston MA to be effective in relieving menopause symptoms, they must be used correctly as part of a high-quality treatment program. Here are the key elements of a quality treatment protocol:
- Individualized dosages: Depending on your current hormone levels, you may require bigger or smaller doses of various bioidentical hormones in Allston MA in order to raise your hormones to healthy levels and relieve your symptoms. At Renew Youth, we test each patient before beginning treatment to ensure we prescribe the exact right dosages.
- Balancing of all relevant hormones: There is no one single hormone that is causing your menopause symptoms. Instead, it is probably a combination of problems. At Renew Youth, we test for multiple different hormones that affect your health and well-being during menopause and ensure they are properly balanced.
- Pairing of estrogen & progesterone: Estrogen should never be replaced without also replacing progesterone, because these two hormones work in concert to help ensure estrogen is absorbed safely into the body.
- Ongoing lab testing & monitoring: Doctors should stay involved with their patients after prescribing hormone therapy, performing regular lab testing, listening to patient needs, and adjusting dosages as needed.
