Hormone replacement

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy in Richmond

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that match the ones your body makes to bring low or unbalanced levels back into range. At RVA Health & Wellness on Stony Point Parkway, we test your levels first, then offer creams, oral tablets, injections or pellets to men and women whose labs and symptoms point to it.

Why hormones change

BHRT is used to treat men and women who feel the effects of reduced or unbalanced hormone levels. For women, changes usually come with aging and menopause. For men, testosterone drops gradually with age, a process often called andropause.

Is BHRT right for me?

Before you start, we test your hormone levels and talk about your symptoms and how they affect your daily life. After reviewing your lab work, symptoms and medical history, we’ll tell you whether BHRT is a recommended course of action. Some treatments aren’t suitable for people with certain previous or existing medical conditions, and we’ll be clear with you if that applies.

Questions

How do I know if BHRT is right for me?

We test your hormone levels and review your symptoms and medical history first. Some treatments aren’t suitable for people with certain medical conditions, and we’ll tell you if that’s the case.

What are hormone pellets?

Small bioidentical hormone pellets placed under the skin. They release small, consistent levels of hormones over several months, so there’s nothing to apply or take each day.

What is BHRT?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that match the ones your body makes. It’s used to bring hormone levels back into balance when age or menopause has thrown them off.

What happens at my first visit?

We check your hormone levels (estrogen and progesterone for women, testosterone for men) and talk through your symptoms and how they affect your daily life. After we review your lab work, symptoms and medical history, we’ll tell you whether BHRT is a good fit.

What forms of hormone therapy do you offer?

Topical creams, oral tablets, injections and pellets. We’ll help you choose the one that fits your body and your routine.

Is BHRT only for women?

No. We treat both men and women. Men’s care usually focuses on testosterone, while women’s care usually balances estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Where do I get my labs drawn?

At a lab near where you live or work, at a time that suits you. Initial and follow-up labs are included in our plans.
