Hormones are essential chemical messengers that regulate many critical bodily functions. When hormone levels decline or become imbalanced, wide-ranging symptoms can result. Both men and women may experience issues like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, anxiety, and depression as a result of hormone imbalance. Other symptoms are gender-specific.
Common reasons for hormone deficiency and imbalance include:
Getting a proper diagnosis is the vital first step. Comprehensive lab testing analyzes your free and total hormone blood serum levels for key indicators like estradiol, testosterone, DHEA, melatonin, cortisol, thyroid hormones, and more. Testing also checks for nutritional deficiencies tied to hormone health.
Based on test findings and a medical evaluation, customized bioidentical hormone therapy may be recommended to restore optimal balance.
Bioidentical hormones are plant-derived compounds engineered in a lab to have the identical molecular structure to those naturally produced in the body. This makes them easily recognized and utilized by hormone receptor sites.
The most common delivery methods include:
Bioidentical hormones are not the same as conventional therapy. Synthetic hormones like PremPro and birth control pills have different molecular structures which must be processed by the liver. This can increase side effects.
Compounded bioidenticals are created in specialized pharmacies to meet your doctor’s prescribed potency, dosage, and combination. This custom-tailored approach stands apart from mass-produced, one-size-fits-all synthetic hormones.
Balancing your hormones with bioidentical therapy offers science-backed benefits:
Restoring hormonal balance relieves issues associated with deficiency like fatigue, low libido, anxiety, depression, insomnia, weight gain, and more. You regain strength, mental clarity, healthy weight, sex drive, and overall vitality.
Age-related hormone decline substantially increases risks for heart disease, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and certain cancers. Correcting deficiencies and imbalances reduces these risks and promotes better long term health.
With energy levels, sleep quality, mental health, and sex drive improved, your overall happiness and life satisfaction increases significantly. Bioidenticals restore enjoyment of day-to-day living.
In addition to reduced disease risk, balancing deficiency supports cells, tissues and organs to uphold healthy physiological function. This promotes graceful aging overall.
Studies verify that bioidentical therapy does not share the same cancer, heart disease and stroke risks associated with conventional synthetic hormones. Bioidenticals offer a safer alternative.

Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptoms. Large, long-term studies are still needed to fully understand the risks and benefits of bioidentical hormones compared to conventional hormone therapy.
Because hormones regulate many bodily processes simultaneously, deficiency symptoms can be broad and vague initially. Yet even mild imbalances cause significant effects long-term.
Hormone decline is gradual, therefore symptoms sneak up slowly. People chalk up issues to stress or normal aging. But deficiencies often start in the 30’s-40’s for menopausal women and from mid-40’s for men. The longer imbalances go unchecked, the higher susceptibility to age-related diseases becomes.
Comprehensive testing gives objective data and specific answers. Then customized bioidentical therapy restores optimal balance, provides symptom relief and reduces elevated health risks. Acting early is key - don’t delay if symptoms are disrupting your vitality.
Since multiple hormone issues often occur simultaneously, accurately diagnosing imbalances requires thorough, precision testing. Equilibrium Hormone Institute offers complete analysis - we don’t take shortcuts.

Equilibrium Hormone Institute testing provides the full picture on your specific hormone deficiencies, imbalances and causal factors. Precise data and answers guide custom-tailored, effective treatment.
Once testing pinpoints your particular hormone deficiencies, we craft a personalized replacement plan using bioidentical hormones.
Based on your lab results, symptoms and health profile, we prescribe customized combinations of the right bioidentical estrogen, testosterone, thyroid hormone, cortisol, melatonin, DHEA and/or human growth hormone (hGH) your body needs.
The goal is restoring each hormone group into optimal balance for full symptom relief. This is the essence of functional, anti-aging medicine.
Pills, creams, gels and injections each have pros and cons. We determine the best delivery methods for your body and lifestyle. This ensures you receive full therapeutic dosages.
For example, testosterone cream absorption can vary between individuals. For some, combining oral tablets may work better. Estrogen pills often work best alongside vaginal or skin cream to maximize systemic benefits while avoiding gut metabolism.
Follow up blood and saliva testing tracks your response, adjusting doses over time for ideal balance. We don’t take a rigid approach - your body is the guide. Fine tuning for the long term is key.
Full hormone restoration often requires nutritional IVs for vitamin, mineral and antioxidant cellular support. Hormones require certain nutrients at enhanced levels which oral supplementation cannot always provide. We determine what adjunct therapies augment your results.
Bottom line - with careful precision 'one-size' replacement plans don’t cut it. We personalize multi-angle protocols focused wholly on your restored vitality and health. That defines the Equilibrium Hormone Institute difference.
