Total Hormone Replacement Therapy is one of our signature therapies offered at VMS.
Everybody considering BHRT should be aware that we age because our hormones decline, our hormones don't decline because we age.
Conventional medicine has always had the view that aging is inevitable and that the progressive deterioration that occurs in our adult years cannot be altered. It is a commonly held belief that diseases of the heart, cancer, stroke and dementia are all a "normal" part of aging.
Extensive research has shown that maintaining our hormonal system in a youthful state can prevent the debilitating diseases that accompany our aging process. The Hormone revolution has allowed knowledgeable physicians to realize that the traditional approach to treating individual systems of aging is insufficient. By replacing deficient hormones we can not only enhance the quality of our lives but also extend our life expectancy.
The most effective solution for any disease is prevention.
At VMS we provide complete Hormone Replacement Therapy in which we will evaluate your hormonal levels and will subsequently replenish all the hormones at the same time to a more optimal physiological level.
Bio identical hormones are structured exactly the same as the structure of hormones naturally secreted by our endocrine glands. They are all natural and are extracted from plants, called "phytohormones".
Most patients are typically Men and Women, mid-age, healthy people that show gradual increased signs of aging, decreased energy levels, decreased sense of well being, loss of muscle tone, increase fat gain around the mid section, thinning hair and skin, increased cholesterol, signs of heart disease and arthritic changes.
Within 6-12 months patients have noticed a change in overall total body appearance, body tone enhancement, feeling more recharged and a better sense of well being
