Bioidentical hormones are substances that have the exact same chemical and molecular structure as those made naturally in the human body. As we age, our hormone levels often decline, leading to undesirable symptoms. Replacing these diminished hormones can provide extensive health and wellness benefits when overseen properly.
At Second Spring Hormone Clinic in Graham, our expert medical team specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) using hormones chemically identical to those produced in the human body. We create completely customized treatment plans to restore optimal hormonal balance based on your unique needs.
Our compassionate practitioners possess considerable expertise in hormone testing and interpreting subtle patterns in lab results. We take the time to understand your unique situation holistically before creating fully personalized plans. At Second Spring Hormone Clinic, your individual needs come first, not one-size-fits all solutions.
Entrust your hormonal health to our capable hands and discover a new sense of balance and wellness this year.
Hormone levels fluctuate over time. Deficiencies often emerge and demand attention to avoid unpleasant effects.
Perimenopause starts for most women in their late 40s to mid 50s. It begins when the ovaries gradually make less estrogen and progesterone - key hormones that regulate menstruation, bone/heart health, weight, energy, mood, and more. This hormonal decline causes most women to experience sometimes debilitating symptoms like:
Menopause officially occurs when a woman has no period for 12 consecutive months. Postmenopause brings its own set of hormonal effects. If untreated, deficiencies can increase risks for osteoporosis, heart disease, diabetes, and dementia.
Similar to female menopause, andropause stems from waning reproductive hormone output. Most men start experiencing "low T" (low testosterone) in their 40s-50s. Declining testosterone commonly provokes:
Without treatment, low testosterone elevates dangers for obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart attack, stroke, osteoarthritis, and loss of independence.
Imbalances may emerge at other life stages too. Key hormones like thyroid, DHEA, melatonin, growth hormone and more can drop to suboptimal levels at almost any age depending on individual factors like chronic stress, poor diet, toxins, lack of exercise, etc. Even those leading very healthy lifestyles may grapple with hormonal shifts. Genetics and family histories play roles as well.
Bottom line: Hormonal declines and imbalances often plague adults - sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically. Yet the discomforts and heightened risks need not persist when properly addressed!
Recognizing and treating hormone shortfalls before severe symptoms manifest can help you feel vibrant and well for decades longer. Restoring balance early is vital.

Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Despite marketing claims of being "natural," the risks and benefits of bioidenticals resemble those of conventional hormone therapy based on the specific hormone compounds and doses used. More research is still needed to clarify differences.
