At Hermon Health & Wellness and Telehealth Maine, we understand that hormone imbalances can significantly impact your quality of life. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, menopause, or experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can help restore balance and improve how you feel every day.
What is Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
BHRT uses hormones that are molecularly identical to those naturally produced by your body. When used under proper guidance, they can actively restore optimal hormone levels, helping you feel energized, focused, and balanced. A popular study from 2002, by the Women's Health Initiative, created much stir in the HRT world as it did link many negative connections between synthetic (not bio-identical) hormone replacement therapy and adverse health outcomes. Since then, HRT has been misunderstood and not offered by many practitioners. More recent studies have proven that BHRT is safe, effective, and associated with lowered risks of many cancers, heart disease, osteoporosis, and more, plus it drastically improves the quality of life for many people.
Women in Perimenopause or Menopause
Hormone changes during these stages can cause frustrating symptoms like:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Mood swings and irritability
- Brain fog and memory issues
- Fatigue and low energy
- Weight gain and slowed metabolism
- Vaginal dryness and reduced libido
BHRT can help ease these symptoms by restoring hormonal balance, improving your overall well-being.
Men Experiencing Low Testosterone (Low T)
Testosterone levels naturally decline with age, often causing:
- Decreased energy and stamina
- Loss of muscle mass
- Increased body fat
- Mood changes or irritability
- Brain fog and poor concentration
- Low libido and erectile dysfunction
Testosterone replacement therapy can help men regain their vitality, strength, and mental clarity.
We take a personalized approach to hormone optimization, tailoring each treatment plan to your unique needs and health goals. With careful monitoring of your progress and labs we can help you achieve safe and effective results.
Replacement options that we discuss include important dietary and lifestyle changes along with prescriptions of topical creams or gels, patches, oral tablets or capsules, and injectable forms. Insurance may cover your medications at retail pharmacies but we also have options through compounding pharmacies as well.
The initial consultation is $249 which includes a comprehensive consultation reviewing your symptoms, your personal medical history and family medical history, an order for labs, and the follow-up appointment to discuss lab results and treatment recommendations. Follow-up visits (after the first one) are $99 for non-members (or $79 monthly memberships are available). Follow-ups may be monthly, every 2 months, or every 3 months. For those with high out-of-pocket insurance costs (or no insurance), we have a low priced self pay lab on site and we can discuss multiple different treatment recommendations depending on budget and insurance coverage. Book online through the self booking link or by calling 207-742-2839.
