Renew Youth only uses bioidentical hormones in Long Beach CA for menopause treatment
The hot flashes and mood swings that come with menopause have become a joke in today’s society. If you’re experiencing these symptoms, however, you know they are no laughing matter. Menopause symptoms can be relieved with help from Renew Youth. We offer a variety of treatment options, including hormone replacement therapy using bioidentical hormones in Long Beach CA.
What are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are indistinguishable from the natural hormones your body should be producing. Synthetic hormones, however, contain slight deviations from the chemical structure of a natural hormone and are not accepted as well by the body. This can cause dangerous side effects. One key example is progestin. This synthetic form of progesterone has actually been linked to increased risk of breast cancer, whereas studies have shown that the natural form of progesterone decreases this risk. At Renew Youth, we are committed to providing the very best care for our patients and that’s why we use bioidentical hormones in Long Beach CA exclusively.
Using Bioidentical Hormones in Long Beach CA Safely and Correctly
In order for bioidentical hormones in Long Beach CA 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: Every patient’s body is different, and therefore will require individualized treatment. At Renew Youth, we test all patients prior to beginning treatment to establish baseline hormone levels and generate a plan for using specific dosages of bioidentical hormones in Long Beach CA to relieve their unique symptoms.
- Balancing of all relevant hormones: Menopause symptoms are typically caused by a complex interaction between multiple different hormones. 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: When estrogen is replaced, progesterone should also be replaced to ensure that estrogen binds to the correct receptors in the body.
- Ongoing lab testing & monitoring: Your treatment plan may need to be adjusted over time, depending on how you feel and how your body responds to treatment. We test your hormone levels regularly adjust your dosages as needed to make sure you continue to see good results from treatment.
