Bioidentical Hormone replacement

What is bioidentical hormone replacement?

Bioidentical hormone replacement is a treatment that uses hormones with the same molecular structure that your body makes. It can address hormone imbalances that may occur during menopause, perimenopause, and andropause, or as hormone levels decline with age.

People experiencing hormonal changes may notice disruptive symptoms, particularly:

• Fatigue
• Low energy
• Decreased muscle strength
• Weight gain
• Reduced libido
• Mood changes
• Difficulty concentrating
• Poor sleep
• Hot flashes

Because these symptoms can have many possible causes, a thorough evaluation with Dr. Broderick is an important first step. Based on your results and overall health, she’ll create a tailored treatment plan.

How can I benefit from bioidentical hormone replacement?

Bioidentical hormone replacement may relieve symptoms and boost your quality of life. It can improve your:

• Energy
• Mental clarity
• Mood
• Sleep quality
• Libido

It may also support healthy muscle mass, improve your exercise tolerance, and contribute to better physical function, making it a valuable complement to rehabilitation and wellness programs. 

If you’re recovering from injury or managing chronic musculoskeletal conditions, feeling better can make it easier for you to participate effectively in your physical therapy, maintain an active lifestyle, and work toward your recovery goals.

Your health history and hormone levels are also unique, so treatment is always individualized, and Dr. Broderick follows up to make sure you’re getting the results you want.

What should I expect from bioidentical hormone replacement?

Personalized bioidentical hormone replacement begins with a thorough consultation focused on understanding your symptoms, lifestyle, medical history, and health goals. Dr. Broderick may recommend laboratory testing to evaluate your hormone levels and rule out other medical conditions that can cause similar symptoms.

If bioidentical hormone replacement is appropriate for you, she can prescribe treatment with your needs in mind. Throughout your treatment, regular follow-up appointments allow Dr. Broderick to monitor your progress, evaluate your symptom improvement, adjust dosages when needed, and address your questions or concerns.
