Hormone Therapy can provide life-changing benefits for men and women suffering from age-related hormone decline.
When most people hear the words “Hormone Therapy” or “Hormone Replacement Therapy” (HRT), they think of women and how HRT is used to treat menopause. But, if you think Hormone Therapy is only for females, think again! Men also lose critical hormones as they age and go through a similar condition to menopause known as andropause. The hormonal imbalances caused by andropause or “male menopause,” can be just as debilitating for men as menopause is for women.
The good news is, no matter your symptoms or gender, Hormone Therapy can help!
Hormone Therapy uses prescription treatments to address the effects of declining hormone levels due to aging.
Hormones are essential regulators of numerous bodily functions in both men and women. These chemical messengers travel through your bloodstream and help maintain your body’s balance and performance. They play a vital role in:
Among the most influential hormones in the entire body are testosterone and human growth hormone (HGH). Unfortunately, these hormones begin to diminish with age, which leads to the onset of symptoms often associated with getting older, such as:
Hormone Therapy is designed to help reverse these changes by restoring your hormone levels to more youthful ranges. The goal of Hormone Therapy is to improve your quality of life at any age.
Hormone Therapy is designed to replace the hormones that are no longer being made in adequate supply by your body. Most often that is testosterone or human growth hormone, but age-related hormone decline also impacts female hormones as well as adrenal or thyroid hormones in both genders.
Most often Hormone Therapy is given via injection of the required hormone. While some forms of HRT can be delivered orally or topically, in most cases hormone injections are the most effective delivery method as they immediately raise the level of a given hormone in your bloodstream.
The goal of Hormone Therapy is to return your hormone levels to their optimal range and thus improve your physical and mental health.
There can be some health risks associated with HRT. However, for most of our patients the benefits of hormone therapy far outweigh any of the potential risks.
There’s no universal template when it comes to Hormone Therapy. At Nexel Medical, we offer individualized treatment plans tailored to your age, symptoms, sex, medical history, and personal health goals. The two most commonly prescribed forms of Hormone Therapy are testosterone replacement and growth hormone therapy. Depending on your needs, you may receive one or a combination of both.
Traditionally, Hormone Therapy was used to ease the symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, mood swings ,sleep disturbances and night sweats. Today’s treatments are far more advanced and personalized, allowing women to benefit from a broader array of treatments for hormone imbalances, including testosterone replacement therapy, or TRT.
In fact, for post-menopausal women, recent studies have revealed that testosterone deficiency—not just estrogen loss—can be responsible for issues such as low sexual desire and vaginal dryness. Testosterone therapy has been shown to restore libido, improve intimacy, and reduce discomfort.
Cognitive benefits have also been reported. Research shows that combining low-dose testosterone with estrogen replacement can help sharpen mental focus and improve memory in aging women.
Testosterone is the most important hormone for male vitality, and when levels drop—a condition often referred to as low testosterone or “low T.” Low T can lead to a range of physical and emotional symptoms, including:
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for men can slow and in many cases even reverse all of these symptoms and issues.
In many men, a decline in testosterone is accompanied by a deficiency in HGH. Growth hormone is essential for cellular repair and regeneration, which continues to be vital long after adolescence. Adults still need HGH to support muscle health, bone strength, and metabolism.
When used appropriately, HGH therapy and or TRT can:
For men, combining testosterone injections and growth hormone injections often provides the best results in helping them feel and perform like their younger selves. However, only a skilled healthcare professional can safely prescribe both therapies for you. Never attempt to use or especially combine HGH and testosterone without a prescription and proper medical supervision.
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen can be administered in various forms—topical creams, injections, skin patches, or small pellets inserted under the skin. HGH therapy, however, is only available via injection.
Our team has found injectable HRT to be especially effective, offering fast and reliable results. Furthermore, we also strongly believe in the use of bioidentical hormones over synthetic alternatives.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the ones your body produces naturally. This makes them easier for your body to absorb and less likely to cause adverse reactions. Synthetic hormones, on the other hand, are lab-created substitutes that your body may not fully recognize, potentially increasing the risk of unwanted side effects.
However, only a skilled medical professional, like the hormone experts at Nexel can determine the best type of Hormone Therapy for you and your lifestyle.
Age-related hormone deficiencies typically affect your physical vitality, mental clarity, and sexual health. Because these areas are so interconnected, many patients require treatment for more than one hormonal imbalance.
The only way to know for sure is through clinical testing. We start with comprehensive bloodwork to measure your hormone levels. If deficiencies in testosterone, HGH, or other key hormones are detected, our specialists will design a custom hormone replacement plan specifically for you.
Whether you need HRT for menopause symptoms, low testosterone or something else, your treatment plan will be based on your test results, medical history, and lifestyle needs. The type of HRT will differ from person to person. At Nexel we do not believe that there is such thing as “the right” type of hormone therapy, just the one that’s right for you!
