Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
(BHRT) Clinic

Hormone levels tend to fall out of balance as we age, and the resulting signs and symptoms are often overlooked. If you are experiencing fatigue, weight gain, depression and anxiety, hair loss, mood swings, low libido or any other hardship typically attributed to “aging,” bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) could get you back to feeling at your peak.

SEE IF BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES ARE RIGHT FOR YOU

Hormone Optimization

Our hormones play a big role in how we look and feel as we move through life. At the Albano Clinic, we help you get back to your optimal 30-year-old levels safely with BHRT.

During bioidentical hormone therapy, we use hormones that are biologically identical to those in your body – not the costly and damaging synthetic hormones that are commonly used – to help you achieve the invigorating benefits of optimized hormone levels.

Don’t allow unbalanced hormones to wreak havoc on your health – start feeling better today.

The Benefits Of Bioidentical Hormone Therapy

As we get older, our lifestyle choices have a larger effect on our health and wellness, and it’s important to keep all things in the proper balance. When it comes to our hormones, maintaining the correct levels is just as vital for women as it is for men.

BHRT clinics not only address the root cause of menopause symptoms but can also help address incontinence, low libido, and low levels of testosterone in both men and women.

As testosterone plays a key role in the healing process, we typically recommend our patients take a testosterone supplement prior to any stem cell procedure to help expedite healing.

The BHRT Process

Because bioidentical hormones are natural and structurally identical to the hormones in your body, your medications will be compounded specifically for you.

We first start with a blood draw to gain a concise understanding of your health needs and concerns and will go over these results with you so you have a complete understanding of your current levels.

After we discuss these results with you, we then have your hormone medications compounded directly for you.

We repeat this process at regularly scheduled intervals to both optimize your hormone levels and ensure you’re feeling better than ever.

Taking natural bioidentical hormone supplements to optimize your body’s natural hormone production can reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack, increase lean muscle mass, and boost your libido.

Watch Dr. Albano explain how “normal” hormone levels are not optimal for your overall health.

We have been on bioidentical hormones for about seven years… Dr. Albano thinks out of the box and gives you all the natural things that can help improve your health.”~ Judy and David

FAQs

Can I get some of these products at a health food store or Costco?  Expand

Yes, however, these medications may have several problems:

  1. The dose available over-the-counter (OTC) is often much lower than that of the prescribed variety. That is why they don’t require a prescription and are available OTC. These lower doses don’t produce a measurable difference in blood tests.
  2. The OTC medications may be larger in size and do not absorb as well. The pure pharmaceutical-grade ingredients from the compounding pharmacy are micronized, which means they are a fine grain and are well absorbed.
  3. The OTC products may be quick-release, quick-acting and/or poorly absorbed. As a result, these are dosed multiple times per day. The natural hormones from a compounding pharmacy can be prescribed as a long-acting or sustained release version, which provides a steady release over the course of 24 hours.
  4. The quality of the OTC medications may be substandard as the base ingredients are often obtained overseas.
  5. The actual amount of the OTC ingredients may vary considerably from the amount stated on the label.
  6. The OTC products come in standard dosages, while those from a compounding pharmacy can be customized to your specific needs.
When can I stop the hormones and what happens when I do? Expand

You can stop the hormones when you decide you would no longer like the protective effects. The hormone levels will return to baseline (the low level prior to starting hormones) over a period of several months.

What is the difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones? Expand

A bioidentical hormone is a natural hormone that is structurally identical to the hormones in your body. This type of hormone may be derived from soy or yams and cannot be patented by a pharmaceutical company.

A synthetic hormone is one that is not identical to your natural hormones and can be patented. Because synthetic hormones are not identical to the body’s natural hormones, their effects are different than bioidentical hormones.

Where can I get these natural hormones? Expand

Bioidentical hormones are made by a special type of pharmacy, called a compounding pharmacy, and can only be prescribed by a physician (or another provider). At the Albano Clinic, we only use the highest-quality compounding pharmacies.

Compounding pharmacies specialize in creating custom medications. They can obtain a pure pharmaceutical-grade hormone and compound it into the dose and form ordered specifically for you.
