WOMEN: PERI- AND POST-MENOPAUSAL:
PRECURSOR HORMONES & BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY
As a woman enters her mid thirty's, she may encounter hormone related symptoms such as:
Hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, foggy thinking, memory lapses, irregular menstruation, sadness, depression, sleep disturbances, fatigue, stress, sugar cravings, weight gain, decreased libido, hair loss, increase in facial or body hair, mood swings, breast tenderness, nervousness, irritability, anxiousness, water retention and Fibrocystic Breasts. These are all signs of hormone levels decreasing in your body.
Women are frustrated and no longer willing to accept the risks associated with chemical hormones and are searching for safer alternatives.
An estimated two million women are now benefitting from natural Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy. Dr. Bhiro uses bio-identical hormones. These hormones are molecule by molecule exactly the same as the hormones present in the human body.
PMS / DEPRESSION / ANXIETY DISORDERS DUE TO NEURO-HORMONAL IMBALANCES
There are two major types of neurotransmitters: inhibitory and excitatory. Neurotransmitters plays a role in depression, anxiety, concentration, OCD, seizures, ADD/ADHD; hence, it is very important to maintain a balance. Not many companies offer this form of testing.
Examples of Inhibitory Neurotransmitters:
1) Serotonin
2) GABA
3) Taurine
4) Glycine
Examples of Excitatory Neurotransmitters:
1) Glutamate
2) Dopamine
3) Epinephrine
4) Histamine
5) Aspartic Acid
6) PEA
Shifts in one’s hormonal level can effect a change in one’s neurotransmitter levels there by causing or having a mood change. For example, PMS and mood disorders associated with the post-partum state.
INFERTILITY
Complete hormonal, endocrine, nutritional, mineral and stress assessments will be used to identify imbalances and to help restore optimal fertility.
MEN - ANDROPAUSE
By the time a man approaches his 30's, there is already a decline in his testosterone levels. With time, it reaches a level where he becomes symptomatic. Andropause is a term coined to describe this stage in a man’s life when he becomes significantly deficient in testosterone and symptomatic. We also call it “male Menopause.” Having a hormonal imbalance is not just a woman’s issue. Medical studies show that men, begin at age 30 to experience up to a 2 percent decrease in their testosterone level every year. As men continue to age and their testosterone levels continue to decline, some physiological changes start to happen. They start to have problems with sexual function, decrease in muscle mass, disappearance of facial and body hair, increase in body fat, depression, osteoporosis and a decline in over all well-being.
If you’re a male and suffering from the following indicators, We can help!
Erectile dysfunction, prostrate problems, irritability, low libido, depression, abdominal weight-gain, anxiousness, sleep problems, low energy, and fatigue, diabetes.
It is very important for men with low testosterone, to find a physician who is highly experienced and knowledgeable with hormone replacement.
GROWTH HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY
We strictly adhere to the FDA guidelines for GH replacement therapy. We follow the current indications as set forth by the FDA. Prescribing GH as an “anti-aging” hormone is not part of our practice and also not a given indication by the FDA.
LIBIDO DISORDERS
A variety of therapies are available to increase libido. This is a concern for both men and women. Perimenopausal and menopausal women often experience a decreased desire for sex caused by an imbalance in the hormones: estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Men often experience a decrease in sexual desire, loss of libido and poor erections without normal levels of testosterone. We also specialize in Oxytocin therapy that has been shown to improve one’s orgasm.
