Hormone Replacement Therapy

What is it? 
Hormone replacement is a process that includes comprehensive lab testing,
symptom assessment, and treatment with bio-identical hormone replacement therapy to replace the identical form of the natural hormone that you have low levels in. We assess each hormone patient independently and get their symptoms additionally, at RevIVe medical spa we draw comprehensive lab profiles that are reviewed in a visit with a licensed medical doctor.

Who Needs It? 
Many patients male and female need a form of hormone replacement including sex hormones i.e. testosterone, estrogen, progesterone as well as thyroid hormone replacement. As you age, hormone levels naturally decline and with that your longevity as well as other vital functions in your body decline. Hormone replacement helps significantly with symptoms associated with decreased hormone levels, these look different for men and women.

Hormone Imbalance Symptoms in Men: Fatigue, low libido, erectile dysfunction, low muscle mass, insomnia, excess abdominal fat, inability to lose weight, irritability, lower sense of self,
and more.

Hormone Imbalance Symptoms in Women: Fatigue, Insomnia, Irritability, inability to lose weight, vaginal dryness, painful sex, low libido, hair loss, heart palpitations, dry skin, dry eyes, brittle nails, and more.
We also are able to treat women with a family history or personal history of breast cancer with low risk non-cancer causing forms of estrogen and supplement alternatives that still work to fully eradicate menopausal symptoms.

How The Process Works: At RevIVe your process begins with our nurse getting a symptoms overview and medical history, following that we draw your labs (our lab work is much more comprehensive than your PCP, most patients have over 12 lab components included). Once we receive your lab results, you will receive a copy and a basic explanation of what to expect for your specific treatment plan. From there, we book your visit with our MD and you have an in depth visit and begin treatment! We do 6 week nurse visits to evaluate how you are feeling, from there you have a 3 month follow up with the Doctor and once treatment is satisfactory you can move to twice yearly visits and lab work.

What Form Do The Hormones Come In? There are many options of delivery of hormones available, at RevIVe we primarily utilize topical hormone creams for womens HRT and for males we utilize injectable testosterone replacement most commonly. Additional replacement with oral capsules and tablets can be necessary for some patients.
