Improve your health and mood with expert hormone replacement therapy in Palm Springs CA
Menopause can derail your personal and professional life, with symptoms like mood swings and vaginal dryness that alienate you from your partner or insomnia and memory loss that can make you lose your edge at work. To make matters worse, low estrogen and other hormonal imbalances related to menopause can put your health at risk. At Renew Youth, we can help you feel better and age better with hormone replacement therapy in Palm Springs CA.
Balancing Your Hormones
Balance is the cornerstone of our hormone replacement therapy in Palm Springs CA. We test and treat all hormones relevant to female health and aging. This has the effect of not only relieving your menopause symptoms, but also improving your overall health and wellness. Based on the results of detailed lab testing, and on your description of your symptoms, our experienced doctors will create a personalized menopause treatment plan including the specific dosages of hormones you need to feel your best. Here are the main hormones that we address in our treatment plans:
Estrogen: Women have estrogen receptors all over their bodies. When estrogen is low, this can cause all kinds of issues with your health. At Renew Youth, we prescribe a bi-est formula for estrogen replacement. This formula includes two types of estrogen (estradiol and estriol) for a safe, gentler treatment that you would get from estradiol alone.
Progesterone: Estrogen is a growth-promoting hormone. Progesterone is necessary to control and moderate this growth and protect against breast cancer. We always prescribe progesterone and estrogen together, and we never use synthetic versions of these hormones. Synthetics have been linked to adverse treatment outcomes including cancer.
Testosterone: Women need a little bit of this male hormone to feel their best. At Renew Youth, we always test for low testosterone and then give you the exact amount you need to fuel your sex drive, stabilize your mood, and keep your energy levels up.
Thyroid: Many common menopause symptoms, such as fatigue and weight gain, are actually caused by thyroid imbalance.
DHEA: DHEA is extremely important for protecting against the effects of the stress hormone cortisol, which would otherwise cause accelerated aging. DHEA also helps support immune function and overall hormone balance. Our hormone replacement therapy in Palm Springs CA provides the exact right amount of DHEA for you, unlike over-the-counter supplements which only come in high dosages.
Oxytocin: Sometimes called “the love hormone,” oxytocin can help improve sexual desire and satisfaction for menopausal women.
