We provide safe options for balancing your vital female hormones in Mercer Island WA.
For women, middle age means menopause. But the reality is, menopause is not caused by a date on the calendar. It’s caused by the decline of certain vital female hormones.

We Treat All Your Vital Female Hormones in Mercer Island WA
Renew Youth™ is well known as a better aging specialist with nearly 20 years of experience treating female hormones in Mercer Island WA. We give women the information, services, and products they need to direct their own care and achieve their specific better aging goals. We cultivate an ongoing relationship with our clients, making it easy to update your treatment based on the results of periodic lab testing or changes in your symptoms.
Here are the hormones we treat:
Estrogen: At Renew Youth™, we use a compounding pharmacy so that we can prescribe estriol, the milder form of estrogen, in addition to estradiol. Most doctors only prescribe estradiol because it is easier to obtain, but in so doing they may be contributing to risk of breast cancer.
Progesterone: Unfortunately, synthetic progesterone (progestin) is still sometimes used by doctors. In the words of one expert this should constitute medical malpractice because progestin is so hazardous to women’s health. At Renew Youth™, we always use bioidentical hormones, not synthetics, and this includes progesterone. We always pair natural progesterone and natural estrogen together to help protect against breast cancer.
Testosterone: Many doctors prescribe testosterone in standard dosages rather than testing your testosterone and providing only the amount you actually need. At Renew Youth™, our dosages are always based on testing. This enables us to avoid side effects associated with excess testosterone, like acne.
Thyroid: Low thyroid plays a role in many menopause symptoms, but it often doesn’t get treated correctly because doctors don’t recognize that they need to test for and replace this hormone. And even if they do, they may replace the wrong form of the hormone. At Renew Youth™, we replace thyroid correctly to ensure your body can metabolize it.
DHEA: If your regular doctor addresses DHEA at all, they will likely provide a one-size-fits-all dose. At Renew Youth™, we always provide customized dosages of DHEA and other female hormones in Mercer Island WA based on your test results and on how you feel.
Oxytocin: Half of women over 50 experience discomfort during sex, but only a quarter of them talk to their doctor about it. Women are also unlikely to want to discuss low sex drive or poor quality or nonexistent orgasms, and most doctors won’t ask. At Renew Youth™, however, we know that sexuality is an important part of a woman’s life in menopause and beyond. We offer oxytocin nasal spray to help improve desire and create more powerful orgasms.
Other Services
While replacing female hormones in Mercer Island WA is our core area of expertise, we recognize that hormone replacement therapy is most effective when women also make an effort to change their diet and their lifestyle. We provide assistance with making these changes. For example, we can help you lose weight with prescription injectable nutrients to burn fat.
