As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to undesirable effects like low energy, weight gain, loss of lean muscle, decreased mental clarity, and reduced libido. Anti-aging and hormone therapy seeks to counteract age-related hormone deficiency to help patients feel healthier, more energetic, mentally sharp and sexually vibrant.
At Balance Hormone Institute anti-aging and hormone therapy clinic in Westlake, Louisiana, we specialize in customized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to restore optimal hormone levels and promote healthy aging. Keep reading to learn the key topics surrounding anti-aging and how hormone therapy may help you combat the unwanted effects of aging.
Declining metabolism, thyroid dysfunction and reduced cell energy production can leave you feeling profoundly fatigued no matter how much you rest. Chronic exhaustion is a telltale indicator that your hormones are out of optimal balance.
With hormone deficiency, your body has a harder time burning fat for fuel while also losing precious lean muscle mass. Losing that calorie-burning muscle makes it nearly impossible to maintain a healthy body composition.
Hormones like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone exert protective, energizing effects on the brain. As levels decline you may feel like your memory and focus deteriorate, making daily life and work a struggle.
Your sex hormones drive sexual desire and performance. Plummeting estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA levels commonly result in low libido, erectile dysfunction and difficulty reaching orgasm - leading to personal distress and relationship problems.
Imbalanced brain chemistry from waning hormones frequently manifests as depression, anxiety, irritability and mood instability. Emotional and mental health closely ties to having optimal hormone levels.
Recognizing these common symptoms of hormone imbalance is the first step toward understanding the immense benefits of hormone restoration therapy.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) delivers plant-derived hormones identical in molecular structure to those your body produces. This allows precise, customized restoration of any missing hormones to optimal levels based on symptoms and lab testing.
Research confirms bioidentical hormones closely emulate natural hormones with regard to absorption, use and excretion in the body. They interact properly with cell hormone receptors to activate normal physiologic processes and gene expression for optimal health benefits with minimal risk.

We customize treatment based on each patient's unique hormone deficiencies and treatment goals.
Since hormone levels fluctuate daily, accurately assessing deficiencies requires specialized blood, saliva or urine lab testing.
Balance Hormone Institute offers state-of-the art testing to measure bioavailable (usable) fractions of key hormones to best gauge intracellular hormone status for precision balancing.
We evaluate levels of hormones including:
The most potent female sex hormone responsible for reproductive health, cardiovascular and bone support and temperament.
The vital pregnancy sustaining hormone that facilitates estrogen activity, enhances libido and stabilizes mood in both women and men.
The primary male androgen that drives sexual desire, performance, lean muscle mass, bone strength, motivation and cognition.
The metabolic and cellular powerhouse that controls temperature, weight management, energy, brain function and much more.
The fragile precursor to sex hormones that declines 80% with normal aging and incites profound physical and mental decline.
The sleep and immune support hormone that diminishes with age, impeding restful sleep and immune competence.
Optimizing these deficient hormones restores health, vitality and resilience against aging.

While bioidentical hormone therapy provides the missing foundation depleted by age-related hormone decline, patients can further amplify benefits by embracing proactive lifestyle measures including:
Following an anti-inflammatory diet high in produce, lean proteins and healthy fats provides vital protective antioxidants while supporting ideal body composition and burning fat for fuel.
Engaging in frequent strength and interval cardio training builds calorie burning (metabolism boosting) muscle mass while triggering the release of beneficial hormones and neurotransmitters to aid overall vitality.
Managing life stresses through sufficient sleep, relaxation techniques, social connection and perhaps counseling eases hormonal fluctuations that accelerate aging.
Strategic use of key micronutrients like B12, Vitamin D, magnesium and adaptogens further nourish optimal hormone activity for amplified anti-aging benefits.
While a hallmark of the Balance Hormone Institute approach, healthy lifestyle measures serve as the ideal complement to individually customized anti-aging hormone therapy regimens for maximizing patient outcomes.
Trying to override gradual but substantial age-related hormone declines rarely succeeds through diet, exercise and supplements alone. Individualized bioidentical hormone therapy provides the most direct, efficacious measure for restoring waning hormones to optimal levels for resisting aging.
