Renew Youth™ uses bioidentical hormones in Portland OR for safe menopause treatment.
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. Renew Youth™ can help you find relief. 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 Portland OR.
What are Bioidentical Hormones?
Bioidentical hormones in Portland OR are simply the best way to replace the hormones that age has taken from you. Because these hormones are identical to your own natural hormones on a molecular level, they will bond safely and correctly with hormone receptors all over your body. Synthetic hormones will not do this. Instead, they may cause dangerous side effects including cancer.
Using Bioidentical Hormones in Portland OR Safely and Correctly
In order for bioidentical hormones in Portland OR to be effective in relieving menopause symptoms, they must be used correctly as part of a high-quality treatment program. Here’s what to look for in such a program:
• Individualized dosages: Women should not be prescribed bioidentical hormones in Portland OR on a one size fits all basis. Instead, you should have your hormone levels tested prior to treatment and your dosages tailored to your specific needs.
• Balancing of all relevant hormones: Because multiple different hormones are affecting your menopause symptoms, you need a treatment plan that addresses them all, not just estrogen. At Renew Youth™, we check the levels of all the vital hormones that can affect a woman’s health at menopause and then provide treatments to bring these hormones into a healthy balance. This includes estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol, oxytocin, and growth hormone.
• Pairing of estrogen & progesterone: Replacing estrogen without progesterone can be dangerous. Progesterone is needed to moderate the cell growth triggered by estrogen and protect against breast cancer.
• Ongoing lab testing & monitoring: Healthy estrogen is not a number; it is a range. Ongoing testing and treatment adjustments are necessary to bring you into the position within the healthy range where you feel your best.
