Hormone levels naturally decline with age, and hormone deficiency can result in disruptive symptoms. Replacing deficient hormones through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can provide relief.
Bioidentical means the hormones have the same molecular structure as those made in the human body. BHRT utilizes hormones identical to human hormones to supplement declining levels.
At Wellness Hormone Clinic in Glendale Heights, our physicians specialize in BHRT to help patients achieve hormonal balance and wellness. We offer customized plans to address hormone deficiencies and related symptoms.
Hormone deficiency can negatively impact quality of life. Common symptoms include:
Monitoring for signs of deficiency, through lab testing and tracking symptoms, allows for early detection and treatment through BHRT.

Starting BHRT promptly not only relieves current symptoms but also enables better long term outcomes.
"Bioidentical hormones are not necessarily safer or more effective than synthetic hormones for menopausal symptom relief. In fact, the risks and benefits profile is often quite similar between bioidentical estradiol and standard synthetic estrogens used in traditional hormone therapy."
When seeking hormone balance through BHRT, Wellness Hormone Clinic provides distinctive advantages.
Our physicians have advanced training specifically in bioidentical hormone therapy, enabling them to provide exceptional, personalized care. We stay current with the latest medical research to inform effective treatment plans.
In addition to standard tests, we offer specialized hormone tests to gain a comprehensive snapshot. This includes evaluation of hormone metabolites to ensure optimum hormone activation and clearance. Our insightful interpretations guide treatment fine-tuning.
We realize no two patients are alike. After thorough evaluation, we develop customized plans - selecting appropriate bioidentical hormones, determining optimal doses and delivery methods, and closely monitoring to enhance outcomes.
Appreciating the interconnectedness of body systems, we advise lifestyle adjustments to complement hormone therapy - diet, exercise, stress reduction - empowering patients to participate in their healing journey.
This treatment aims not just to ameliorate symptoms but to transform health. We build caring relationships with patients, answering questions and providing compassionate support each step of the way.
