Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can provide relief from uncomfortable hormone deficiency symptoms and improve quality of life. As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to issues like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, erectile dysfunction, decreased muscle mass, low energy, and more.
HRT helps restore optimal hormone levels, alleviating deficiency signs and promoting better health. Our experienced hrt specialist physicians customize treatment plans with bioidentical hormones - identical in molecular structure to those made by the body - to meet each patient's needs.
The first step is diagnostic testing to pinpoint specific hormone deficiencies. Based on symptoms and medical history, we may recommend checking levels of key hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and thyroid hormones using blood, saliva, or urine tests.
Once we identify low hormone levels through testing, our hrt doctors can prescribe HRT to bring levels back into balance. We carefully track progress to ensure optimum treatment.
Hormone replacement therapy offers a wide range of benefits when customized properly under a specialist's care. Patients report improvements like:
The impact can be significant, allowing patients to feel and function at their best.

Renew Hormone Institute stands out through our dedication to restoring hormone balance and vitality.
Recent research found that women who start hormone therapy earlier, between ages 50-59, tend to have a lower risk of heart disease, heart failure, and premature death compared to those who begin taking hormones at age 60 or older. The timing of initiating therapy seems to be a key factor in potential cardiovascular benefits.
The process of beginning HRT is straightforward under an expert's care. Initial steps include:
Diagnostic testing - Assessing hormone levels through bloodwork, saliva testing, or other methods to identify deficiencies requiring treatment
Evaluation - Reviewing medical history, risk factors, symptoms and examination findings to determine appropriate hormones and dosing
Prescribing bioidentical hormones - Customizing combinations and doses of hormones including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA that are an identical match to the body's own hormones
Follow-up monitoring - Tracking progress through follow-up tests and appointments for any dosage adjustments needed to achieve hormone balance
We carefully tailor each protocol around the patient for safe, effective treatment.
Alongside HRT, we provide guidance on nutrition, fitness, stress management and other wellness factors that profoundly impact hormonal health.
Belfast offers many resources to support positive lifestyle changes during treatment:
Enhancing diet, activity levels, sleep quality and more enables HRT to work best. Our experts offer personalized recommendations on improving wellness during hormone therapy.
Seeking timely diagnosis and treatment for hormone deficiencies is crucial. Left unchecked, the symptoms and health consequences worsen over time.
Beginning customized HRT early on can provide profound benefits and prevent progression of issues like osteoporosis, heart disease, diabetes, and neurocognitive problems. Restoring hormones in later stages still helps, but outcomes improve the earlier treatment begins.
We encourage patients who suspect hormone imbalances due to unpleasant symptoms and age-related decline to undergo testing promptly rather than waiting. Taking action preserves health and vitality for more rewarding, enjoyable years ahead.
