HORMONAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY (HRT)

Hormonal:
    These hormones include human growth hormone, DHEA, melatonin, estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Thyroid, even though the TSH and blood levels appear normal, frequently is not keeping the patient in his or her optimal metabolic range. Therefore the patient is cold intolerant and tired.

The list below is extraordinarily brief and simplistic. This subject has become quite complicated with each patient requiring a thorough evaluation historically and clinically along with blood studies of free hormones. Patients who supplement these hormones need to be followed and monitored by a physician knowledgeable in the subject of natural hormone replacement along with periodic blood studies to make sure they are not receiving too much. Properly treated, patients can have a wonderful rejuvenation.
