Bioidentical Hormones & Testosterone Therapy
"
At Lakewood Primary Care and Wellness, we understand that hormones and brain chemicals are crucial to maintaining health, happiness, and longevity. Hormones have a direct impact on mood, sleep patterns, and metabolism. When your hormones are in balance, you often feel more youthful and vibrant.
Personalized Hormone Testing and Therapy
Hormone testing is an essential aspect of staying healthy. If your hormone levels are not optimal, we offer a variety of hormonal balancing and functional medicine therapies tailored to your individual needs. Our approach is based on the latest nutritional and medical research, ensuring that your treatment plan is both advanced and personalized.
Why Bioidentical Hormones?
We primarily utilize bioidentical hormones, which are chemically identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. Because of this similarity, bioidentical hormones function in your body just like your natural hormones, offering a more natural approach to hormone therapy. These treatments are particularly effective in addressing hormone deficiencies and imbalances.
Testosterone Therapy for Men and Women
As we age, testosterone levels naturally decline in both men and women, leading to symptoms such as low libido, fatigue, depression, and loss of muscle mass. To address these issues, we offer various treatment options, including testosterone injections, creams, and pellet insertions.
Testosterone pellet therapy is one of the most effective methods we offer, providing a steady release of testosterone over 4-6 months, closely mimicking the body’s natural hormone release. For younger patients who are concerned about preserving fertility, we may recommend a combination of HCG injections and natural supplements as part of their treatment plan.
Support for Post-Menopausal Women
Post-menopausal women often experience symptoms such as hot flashes, bone loss, muscle loss, and mood changes, which are not always well-managed with over-the-counter remedies. For these patients, we typically recommend a combination of estrogen and testosterone pellets, along with oral progesterone, to help alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.
Peptide Therapy for Vitality and Longevity
We also offer Sermorelin injections, which are peptides that stimulate your body’s natural production of growth hormone. As growth hormone levels decline with age, Sermorelin can be used in conjunction with other bioidentical hormones to help increase energy levels, vitality, and support overall longevity.
