What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?
As men and women age, they naturally go through andropause and menopause. During this time, their testosterone and estrogen levels begin to decline and can cause hormone imbalances. Hormone Replacement Therapy is a wellness service designed to balance out this shift.
Through Hormone Replace Therapy or HRT, these hormones are balanced and regained naturally. We simply work to replace the hormones that are lost!
How? THE MED SPA™ works to prescribe the perfect dosage and delivery method for your lifestyle and needs. Each person is different and their needs change over time, so individualized programs are essential.

Symptoms of a hormone imbalance
Our hormones play a vital role in our quality of life. If you feel a new shift in your overall health or wellbeing, you may be experiencing a hormone imbalance.
Wondering if you're dealing with a hormone imbalance? Some common symptoms are:
Difficulty sleeping or night sweats
Lack of energy or feelings of fatigue
Fatigue and Inability to put on muscle mass
Reduced mental focus and concentration
Mood swings or new feelings of anxiety or depression
Weight gain or inability to lose weight
Reduced sexual desire and performance
Vaginal dryness
and more
Sound familiar? You're not alone. Most women experience menopause at 51, but some can begin symptoms as early as 40! As for men, not every male experiences andropause, but 20% of men over 60 and 30-50% of men over age 80 will.
These symptoms are natural, but they're not something you have to live with. Hormone Replacement Therapy can help.
What to expect from Hormone Replacement Therapy
We use bioidentical hormones, which means our HRT replenishes your supply with natural, non-synthetic hormones. Based on lab testing, we prescribe unique delivery methods and doses via an individualized plan. This plan is then tweaked every few months to keep you on track.
This plan also includes lifestyle advice, anti-aging product recommendations, and other suggestions to help you on your journey. An ongoing relationship is necessary so we can monitor the success of your plan. That way, as your hormones balance out, we can adjust your plan as needed.
