A Message From our Founder
Restoring Balance
Hormonal changes happen throughout our lives and bioidentical hormone replacement, in the right circumstances and administered safely can bring incredible relief in many cases.
BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy) is a transformative approach addressing hormone deficiencies or imbalances, exclusively employing molecules identical to those naturally occurring in the human body.
While age-related transitions is the most common cause of hormonal shifts, such as perimenopause and menopause in women, and andropause in men, a myriad of other factors such as diet, lifestyle, pregnancy, illness, stress, trauma, and even some medications, can also cause changes and imbalances.
Hormones, acting as chemical messengers, intricately govern nearly every physiological process in the human body, all working in synergy. Disruption in one hormone level often triggers disturbances in others.
The restoration of hormonal equilibrium can have many health benefits beyond mere symptom relief. Our commitment is reflected in accurate laboratory testing, pinpointing hormones requiring regulation, and working to achieve optimal hormone balance and overall well-being.
Hormone Balancing
What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Derived from plants, bioidentical hormones serve as precise replicas of the hormones naturally produced in the body, boasting identical chemical structures at their core.
Unlike synthetic hormones, which deviate from the body’s natural compositions, bioidentical hormones are sourced from nature and mirror the body’s hormonal blueprint. This is the essence of BHRT, utilizing these naturally derived hormones to rejuvenate levels and promote overall health and wellness.
The inevitable aging process brings about a decline in hormones. This decline, particularly with an extended lifespan, can subject individuals to enduring many years with suboptimal hormone levels.
Balancing hormones not only alleviates symptoms but also plays a crucial role in preventing and managing chronic diseases or conditions.
The quest for hormonal balance becomes paramount in navigating the journey toward sustained well-being.

Conditions and Symptoms that can be addressed
Hormones can affect so many bodily functions, but here are some of the most common conditions that we have seen good success in improving.
Unwanted Weight Gain
There are a number of hormones that can contribute to challenges in weight loss. Achieving a balanced overall body composition relies heavily on maintaining hormone balance and maintaining an overall health lifestyle.
Low Energy, Fatigue
Whether your energy levels has its ups and downs during the day or is constant, there are very specific issues with hormones that can result in low energy.
Sleep Problems
insomnia can severely affect one's quality of life in many ways. While various life factors can impact sleep, the integration of bioidentical hormones presents a compelling and effective solution for significantly enhancing sleep patterns.
Mental Sharpness
Frustrated with misplacing your car keys or entering a room only to forget your purpose? The decline in mental sharpness doesn't have to be an inevitable part of aging. Maintaining optimal hormonal balance can profoundly enhance your concentration, memory, and overall productivity, allowing you to be more effective in your daily endeavors.
Skin and Hair
Hormonal imbalances, as well as nutritional deficiencies, inadequate sleep, and lifestyle choices, can contribute to premature aging, manifesting in thinner, more wrinkled, and sagging skin as well as hair loss.

Loss of interest and/or enjoyment in sex can be an unwanted condition that can come with age. Hormone replacement can often reverse this and restore the passion.

What They Say
I have switched over from hormone pellets every 3 months to the monthly injections at Hormones by Design. I have been so pleased with the customer service and the virtual medical appointments with Madison. I feel heard and appreciated here and it is obvious that they have my wellness in mind with each interaction. I highly recommend their services.
Just after the first visit the difference in my energy level was amazing . I'm retired and I found myself sitting on the couch and taking a nap during the day. After my first doctor visit and shot I redid the whole front flower bed of my house in 2 days which is something I couldn't have done even close to a month ago. The results were amazing I feel like my old self again.
About Us
Costs and Insurance
We have founded our practice on affordable pricing for exceptional health care.
We have very affordable cash rates for our lab testing…you will be pleasantly surprised! However, established patients can use insurance for their labs. We cannot verify lab benefits for patients, so we recommend that you know your lab benefits prior to your lab draw.
We are designed as a cash-based practice, but our Billing Manager can provide you with a Superbill to file your own insurance claim. However, Medicare does not allow this. We are unable to provide Medicare patients with a Superbill.
