Bio-Identical Hormones
What are bio-identical hormones? Why would you do hormone replacement therapy?
Bio-identical hormones are medications created with a molecular formula that is identical to the molecular formula of hormones our bodies make. While hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone naturally decrease with age, the use of bio-identical hormones as part of prescribed hormone replacement therapy can help hormones increase to the levels that were present in our youth. This can result in more energy, better memory, a healthier heart, stronger bones, and a more youthful glow.
There are several options for treating age management issues with bio-identical hormones. Let Dr. Berger help you determine if including this therapy in your treatment plan will be beneficial to achieving your best life.
Estrogen
There are three forms of estrogen hormone present in women - estradiol, estrone, and estriol. Injecting a bio-identical form of these hormones can treat menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness, improve psychological well-being, and reduce the incidence of coronary artery disease and osteoporosis. Learn more about estrogen therapy.
Testosterone
With age, the hormone responsible for libido, muscle mass, and energy level decreases in both men and women. Restoring testosterone to youthful levels can lead to a healthy sex drive, increased muscle mass, better mental focus, and higher energy level.

Progesterone
Progesterone is a hormone that helps to balance the effects of estrogen. It relieves hormone-related mood swings, deters weight gain, helps restore libido, protects against breast fibrocysts and osteoporosis, and more.
Dihydroepiadosterone (DHEA)
DHEA has a protective effect against age-related illnesses and plays a key role in increasing sexual arousal, mental and physical capacity, bone density, fat-free mass, IGF-1, and insulin sensitivity. DHEA can also improve the lining of the coronary arteries, thereby lowering the risk of heart disease.
Pregnenalone
Pregnenolone is an important human hormone, as it serves many purposes in the body. As a supplement, pregnenolone improves memory, reduces stress, decreases arthritis inflammation, and improves mood.
Melatonin
The main function of melatonin is to regulate the sleep-wake cycle. With advancing age, melatonin production often decreases and the natural body rhythm is interrupted by insomnia. At Rejuvalife, we utilize melatonin therapy to provide our patients with more restful sleep, stronger immunity, and reduced stress.
