Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men
Many of us are getting to the point where we can really start to enjoy life but our bodies seem to be less capable of delivering. We've begun to feel more tired and we have less enthusiasm about the world around us. We also tend not to exercise as much as we used to. We seem to get sick much more frequently. Our sexual stamina and performance are not what they used to be, and to add insult to injury, we are storing fat in places we never thought possible!
We specialize in hormone therapy for men as a preventive medical treatment focused on regaining and maintaining optimal health, vitality and vigor. Improving your metabolic function and optimizing hormones like testosterone, HGH, DHEA and others, can give men a better opportunity for a healthy and vigorous life.

Hormone Replacement Therapy For Women
In this day and age it is quite normal for a woman to balance a career with being a mother, a wife and running a home. As a result of these responsibilities, it’s easy to forget about your good health and general well being.
For most women, being well informed about health and wellness is becoming increasingly important. It’s common knowledge that women are far better at visiting their doctors than men and in general, take better care of themselves.
You are different from a man in many respects. You have female hormones that can protect you from some diseases yet put you at risk from others. You are vulnerable to osteoporosis, breast and ovarian cancer along with many other conditions.
You also have to consider the impact of pregnancy on your body. You have to face menopause, losing your figure and aging skin. Good women’s health is not just about looking good and performing to the best of your abilities, it’s also about being informed on what’s out there that could benefit you, your health and quality of life.
Menopause Symptoms
As we age, certain hormones like estrogen, progesterone, HGH – human growth hormone - thyroid hormones and even testosterone decline. This decline causes an hormonal imbalance that can trigger sexual, mental and physical problems.
Women in their mid-thirties and forties can suffer from pre-menopause and women in their fifties and beyond can suffer from menopause
Symptoms of pre-menopause include:
· Irregular menstrual cycle length
· Increased breast tenderness and headaches
· Irritability, anxiety and tearfulness
· Fatigue, mood swings and depression
· Water retention
· Exercise and diet resistance weight gain
· Increased inability to cope
· Poor concentration
· Reduced libido / sex drive
· Hot flushes and insomnia
· Foggy thinking and confusion
Traditionally, women suffering from the above have been prescribed the contraceptive pill to “regulate periods”, or anti-depressants to “settle-down” or benzodiazepines like valium to “calm down”. This approach does not get to the root of the problem.
In many cases, a simple age management treatment, combining exercise, diet, nutritional supplements and bio-identical hormone medications, if medically indicated, can even improve or reverse many of the issues that aging women suffer from.
