Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

What is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are structurally identical to the hormones naturally produced by the body. For some patients, changes in hormone levels may contribute to symptoms such as fatigue, poor sleep, mood changes, weight gain, low libido, brain fog, or decreased overall well-being.

At Rejeune MD Wellness and Aesthetics, treatment begins with a physician-guided evaluation, including symptoms, medical history, lab testing, and personal health goals. If hormone imbalance or deficiency appears to be contributing to your symptoms, a personalized treatment plan may include BHRT, testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), thyroid optimization, or ongoing monitoring to support safer, more effective care.

What symptoms can BHRT and TRT help address?

Hormone and thyroid imbalances can contribute to a wide range of symptoms that affect daily quality of life, energy, recovery, sleep, body composition, and overall well-being.

For men, low testosterone may contribute to:

• Fatigue and low energy
• Reduced strength or muscle mass
• Increased abdominal weight gain
• Decreased libido
• Erectile dysfunction
• Poor recovery and reduced motivation
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating

For women, hormonal changes may contribute to:

• Fatigue and low energy
• Sleep disruption
• Hot flashes and night sweats
• Mood changes or irritability
• Weight gain and slowed metabolism
• Low libido
• Brain fog or difficulty focusing

Thyroid dysfunction may also contribute to fatigue, weight changes, low motivation, hair thinning, cold intolerance, and slowed metabolism. Treatment plans are individualized and based on symptoms, lab testing, medical history, and long-term health goals.

What are the benefits of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

When hormone or thyroid imbalances are contributing to symptoms, properly monitored treatment may help improve overall quality of life, energy, recovery, sleep, body composition, and daily well-being.

Depending on the individual, patients may notice improvements in:

• Energy and mental clarity
• Sleep quality and recovery
• Mood and motivation
• Libido and sexual wellness
• Strength and exercise recovery
• Body composition and metabolism
• Focus and concentration
• Overall vitality and healthy aging

At Rejeune MD Wellness and Aesthetics, treatment plans are personalized and medically monitored over time to help optimize results while supporting long-term health and safety.

What should I expect at my hormone therapy appointment?

Your initial consultation includes a detailed review of your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, current medications, and health goals. Lab testing is used to evaluate hormone and thyroid function and help determine whether hormone imbalance or deficiency may be contributing to your symptoms.

Based on your evaluation, Dr. Strong develops a personalized treatment plan that may include bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), thyroid optimization, lifestyle recommendations, and ongoing medical monitoring.

For many patients, pellet therapy offers a convenient long-acting option designed to provide more consistent hormone delivery over time. Depending on individual needs and preferences, some patients may also be candidates for injectable therapy or other treatment approaches.

Follow-up care and repeat lab monitoring help ensure treatment remains safe, effective, and appropriately adjusted over time.
