Hormones are the body’s chemical messengers that are secreted directly into the blood, which carries them to organs and tissues of the body to support their functions. There are many types of hormones that act on different aspects of bodily functions and processes.
Some of the principal hormone levels we focus on include:
- Testosterone
- DHEA
- Estrogen
- Progesterone

Bio-identical hormones have the exact same molecular structure as hormones that are made by the human body. The difference between the hormones your body makes versus synthetic non-bio-identical is in the molecular structure (shape) of the hormone. In order for your body to recognize a hormone as the natural hormone your body makes the chemical structure must exactly match the original. It is the structural differences in non-bio-identical hormones that are responsible for side effects and health risks that occur when non-bio-identical hormones are used by humans.
The goal of bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is to provide optimal levels of deficient hormones as naturally as possible. The desired result is for the body to be restored to optimal levels and therefore allow the body to restore function and feel as you did before the loss of hormones that occurs as we age. Each person’s body chemistry is unique and ever changing so it is important to be treated and monitored by an expert in this field in order to obtain your personal optimal levels. These levels will be determined by your blood work and your current state of health by our expert physicians during your consultation.
Bio-identical hormone pellets are a convenient way to obtain hormones without the stress and worry of having to self-administer. They can be combined in various strengths based on your body’s specific deficiencies. These bio-identical hormones are painlessly inserted into the body fat and are released over time as the body uses the hormones as needed.
