Hormone therapy is the administration of hormones to supplement lower levels as a result of deficiency or aging. Hormone deficiencies can occur due to various reasons and lead to unpleasant symptoms. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) helps alleviate these issues through properly administered supplements and medications.
New Beginnings HRT Clinic offers personalized hormone therapy to residents of Sand Springs. Our experienced medical team provides comprehensive hormone testing, consultation and therapies including testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to help patients restore optimal hormone balance.
The body's intricate hormone system regulates critical processes. Imbalances manifest in various ways:
The adrenal glands produce cortisol to control metabolism and respond to stress. Common signs of suboptimal cortisol levels:
Low cortisol causes low energy, dizziness upon standing, faintness and cravings for salty foods. High cortisol leads to high blood pressure, sugar issues, excess belly fat, bone loss and lowered immunity.
The thyroid gland regulates body temperature, weight, energy and more via thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Hypothyroidism symptoms include:
Hyperthyroidism causes anxiety, heart palpitations, tremors, weight loss and insomnia. Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disorder causing hyperthyroidism. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis involves chronic inflammation leading to hypothyroidism.
Estrogen deficiency contributes to hot flashes, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, urinary issues, joint pain and emotional changes.
Low testosterone in men causes lack of energy, reduced libido, erectile dysfunction, loss of strength and endurance, weight gain and depression.
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) leads to irregular menstrual cycles, acne, excess facial and body hair, scalp hair loss and weight gain. Perimenopause and menopause involve fluctuating hormone levels causing unpleasant psychological and physiological effects.
Because hormones regulate major body processes, imbalances cause various nonspecific symptoms. Comprehensive lab testing is crucial for accurate diagnosis. New Beginnings HRT Clinic utilizes advanced diagnostics to uncover specific deficiencies, including:
Correcting deficiencies via bioidentical hormones alleviates symptoms to restore wellness. Benefits include:
Optimal hormones enhance vigor, strength and cardiovascular health. Testosterone therapy (TRT) boosts lean muscle mass increasing activity tolerance in men. Thyroid hormone replacement alleviates chronic fatigue. DHEA therapy elevates vitality.
Proper hormone levels facilitate fat loss and support lean mass. HGH therapy combined with lifestyle measures helps achieve sustainable weight optimization. Estrogen supports fat distribution to hips and thighs over unhealthy visceral abdominal areas.
Sleep disorders frequently arise from low melatonin, cortisol or estrogen imbalances. Hormone restoration normalizes sleep-wake cycles and deep refreshing sleep.
Key hormones like thyroid, estrogen and testosterone strongly influence mood regulation, motivation and cognitive function. Deficiencies contribute to anxiety, depression and dementia risk. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) alleviates mood disorders, foggy thinking, memory lapses and emotional instability.
Testosterone sustains male virility including libido, penile function and sexual pleasure. Estrogen maintains vaginal health and lubrication facilitating pleasurable sex. BHRT enhances enjoyable intimate relations.
Perimenopause involves estrogen/progesterone decline causing hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, weight gain, difficulty sleeping and mood instability. Andropause stems from decreasing testosterone levels in men over 50 manifesting in fatigue, mood disorders, 'man boobs’ and erectile issues. Customized hormone replacement smooths transitions alleviating uncomfortable signs.
Balanced hormones strengthen immunity, heart health, bone density and neurological function reducing illness risk. Key examples include testosterone boosting heart health and estrogen preventing bone loss in both genders. BHRT enhances wellness protecting future health.
Estrogen therapy has been shown to lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in postmenopausal women by over 30%, likely due to its positive effects on glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and body fat distribution. The protective benefits seem to persist for many years after treatment is stopped.
The New Beginnings HRT Clinic medical team specializes in integrated therapies personalized for the whole patient:
Advanced diagnostics identify specific deficiencies for customized treatments. Saliva cortisol testing uncovers adrenal dysregulation. Sensitive blood assays measure free thyroid and sex hormones including testosterone, progesterone and estrogen. Genetic risk factors are evaluated.
