Bioidentical HRT for Men
At Sol Y Luna, we address a man’s individual hormone replacement needs based on testing, history, and current symptoms and then develop an individually tailored treatment regimen that must be continually optimized. Every man’s body responds differently to dosage and delivery route of hormone replacement, so each regimen requires adjustment and monitoring for him to feel as vital and invigorated as possible. Optimized health and wellness is best achieved by replacing a man’s hormones with a form that his body recognizes immediately, or bioidentical hormones, until his body feels great again. Treatment is then rounded out with good nutrition choices, exercise, and stress reduction
We use only bioidentical hormones, the ones your body have made for years and may have started to decline. Men usually need only testosterone replacement, but may need other hormones, as well. Delivery of these hormones is usually in the form of a transdermal cream or gel, but may be given by injection. Every man is individually evaluated and followed for absorption, levels in his body, and symptom relief.
A panel of saliva and blood spot tests evaluates each client. All testing can be performed on samples easily self collected by the man at home. A thorough medical, social, and nutritional history is taken and current symptoms are extensively reviewed.We take the time to give you detailed current information about the risks and benefits of hormone replacement, considering your particular medical/family history and lifestyle. Each man will spend on average an hour face-to-face with his physician during the initial consultation.
We continually monitor every man’s levels to ensure that an optimal amount is being absorbed, depending on your particular metabolism. We work with you on at least a monthlybasis until you are on a steady regimen, adjusting doses as your needs change with age and situation.
At Sol Y Luna,we also evaluate and monitor the entire hormonal system, and take into account how hormones affect one another when making adjustments. An initial evaluation and discussion may also involve thyroid function; stress hormones produced from the adrenal glands, hormone precursors such as DHEA and Pregnenolone, and insulin sensitivity. Treatment may include temporary or permanent replacement of these hormones and recommendations for non-medicinal ways to improve hormone production and function. We also evaluate and monitor PSA levels and blood count when on hormone replacement.
We work with several compounding pharmacies both locally and nationwide to provide a tailor made regimen for each man and devise a plan including hormone replacement, a healthy diet, nutritional supplementation, exercise, and stress reduction. In the last 100 years we’ve added years to our life, let us help you add life to your years.
