Have your energy and moods been low? Andropause, also called male menopause or low T, can creep up on you, slowly draining your vitality and virility. The hormone specialist at Nuestra Vida Well Living in Junction City, OR, have safe, effective treatment options to get you back to living your best life.
With a simple consultation, you’ll learn if you’re a candidate for bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), such as testosterone therapy. As an advance BHRT specialist, I have helped many men in Oregon live their lives to the fullest with our safe, effective, medically managed hormone replacement program.
Common signs of hormone imbalance in men include:
• Fatigue
• Mood swings
• Low libido
• Erectile dysfunction
• Weight gain
• Sleep problems
• Loss of muscle mass
• Trouble focusing
• Depression
• Hair loss or thinning
Your endocrine system produces hormones that control many of your body’s functions, including metabolism, stress response, sex drive, moods, regeneration, and more. When hormones become off balance, even slightly, men can experience a variety of problems.
Because testosterone and other hormone production naturally decline with age, imbalances are common in men as early as their 40s.
Bioidentical hormones are derived from plant-based sources, such as Mexican wild yams, that contain a chemical called diosgenin. Compounding pharmacies can chemically convert diosgenin into synthetic bioidentical hormones, such as testosterone, estradiol, and DHEA, which are identical to the natural molecular/chemical structure of the hormones our bodies generate.
BHRT can help men bring their hormone levels into balance and alleviate symptoms associated with andropause. Bioidentical hormones have over 30 years of support for their safety and efficacy.
To ensure you are a candidate for BHRT, a thorough health assessment and physical exam will be completed at your consultation prior to starting hormone therapy.
