Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA play a vital role in our overall health and wellbeing. When hormone levels decline or become imbalanced, you may experience unpleasant symptoms like fatigue, trouble sleeping, weight gain, low libido, anxiety, and depression. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can help restore optimal hormone balance so you feel like yourself again.
Bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. At Equilibrium Hormone Institute in Kirkland, our highly trained bioidentical hormone doctors develop customized BHRT programs using a combination of bioidentical hormones including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and others depending on your needs. We create a unique hormone prescription tailored to get your levels back into balance for improved health and vitality.
