What Are Bioidentical Hormones?
Healthy Aging Medical Centers specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, which is a therapy that uses hormones that are identical in molecular structure and chemical function to the hormones produced naturally in the human body. Bioidentical hormones are unique in that they are synthesized from soy or yam products, which allow them to be more easily metabolized into the body. Previous forms of hormone replacement therapy only offered hormones that were not identical to human hormones, which may have led to several uncomfortable and dangerous side effects. Because bioidentical hormones are identical to human hormones, both men and women can consume them without experiencing negative repercussions.
As men and women begin to age, the body’s endocrine system begins to be less capable of producing hormones, and factors such as long-term high stress, poor nutrition, environmental factors, and lack of exercise fuel the decline of the endocrine system. Typically, in women, the ovaries, parts of the kidneys, and the adrenal glands produce most of the body’s hormones. In men, the testicles, kidneys, and adrenal glands supply the majority of male hormones. When these glands cannot supply the body with the necessary sex hormones, which include estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, men and women begin to experience numerous physical, mental, and emotional changes.
Testosterone Therapy for Men
Male andropause is typically the phase during which the symptoms of hormone decline become noticeable. Most men begin to lose around 1% of their testosterone each year beginning around the age of 30, and by the time men reach the 40’s and 50’s, the symptoms of hormone decline become more noticeable. During andropause, testosterone is the hormone that usually declines the most, and as a result, men can experience sexual dysfunction, low libido, lack of motivation, reduced stamina and endurance, hair loss, muscle atrophy and poor workout performances. Because hormones are connected, other hormones may become imbalanced as well, and men can also experience anxiety, depression, sleeping issues, aggression, poor memory, and bone loss. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can help men going through hormone decline to replenish deficient hormones and improve overall levels of health and wellness.

Bioidentical Hormones for Women
In women, perimenopause and menopause are the times when women begin to notice the symptoms of hormonal decline. Perimenopause is a phase that occurs three to seven years before menopause, and during this time, the ovaries begin to produce less estrogen and progesterone. Women going through perimenopause often experience symptoms such as fatigue, depression, irregular periods, increased PMS symptoms, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, infertility, bloating, migraines, water retention, headaches, and low libido.
After women experience twelve straight months without a menstrual period, menopause begins, which is a steeper version of female hormone decline that brings on another set of hormone related symptoms. Women going through menopause often experience symptoms that include depression, thinning bones, anxiety, hair loss, wrinkling skin, fatigue, poor concentration, hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, mental fogginess, vaginal dryness, and low libido. For women suffering from the ovarian hormone decline that occurs during perimenopause and menopause, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can supplement deficient hormones and reverse symptoms.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Delivery Approaches
Oral Hormone Supplements:
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy can help restore normal hormone function and health. Restoring those primary functions can be as easy as taking a couple of extra supplements a day. Oral Hormone Supplements can be in the form of pills, soft gel capsules, powders, and liquids and can be a wonderful and simple addition to your health and upkeep routines.
Transdermal Hormone Patches and Creams:
Skin is the largest organ of the human body and can absorb all manner of things it encounters–from cosmetics to the plastics from the bottles those cosmetics are stored in. Hormones can also be absorbed this way. By placing them directly on the skin as a cream or patch, it allows those hormones to be absorbed directly into the systemic circulation system (the system that carries blood through your arteries, veins, and capillaries), which means less work for your liver. From there, it’s simply a matter of the hormones working through the system to give that healthy, natural boost and amplify your wellbeing!
Hormone Injections:
Receiving much needed Bioidentical Hormone Therapy can be as easy as a quick injection–just like your annual flu vaccine. These injections are often administered to the upper thigh or buttocks at consistent increments for three to four weeks. Because of their quick metabolic absorption rate and frequency, they can be quickly adjusted to make sure they are fitting the needs and balances of the individual.
Implanted Hormone Pellet Therapy:
The procedure for implanting Bioidentical Hormone Pellets is quick and simple. After a local anesthesia is applied to the upper buttocks area, a small incision is made and a pellet the size of a grain of rice is inserted then covered with a small bandage. This procedure takes about 15 minutes and lasts for 4 to 6 months. While they are in your system, implanted pellets slowly release those helpful hormones in response to your natural stressors–keeping you steady and level for longer periods.
Why We Don’t Use Pellets at Our Clinic:
At our clinic, we do not prescribe or use hormone pellets because they offer limited control and flexibility in dosing. Once implanted, the dosage cannot be adjusted without another surgical procedure. This becomes especially problematic if a patient is experiencing side effects, needs dose changes, or is not responding as expected.
Additionally, absorption rates can vary from person to person, and even from pellet to pellet, depending on physical activity, body composition, and circulation. This unpredictability can lead to periods of hormonal imbalance—either too high or too low—which runs counter to our goal of maintaining precise and consistent hormone levels.
We prioritize safer, more adjustable delivery methods such as topical creams or injections, which allow us to closely monitor and fine-tune your therapy based on ongoing lab results, symptoms, and feedback. Our personalized, responsive approach ensures better outcomes and greater patient satisfaction over time.
