Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) offers solutions for both women and men seeking to balance their hormones and recapture their energy, strength and wellbeing. The Hormone Hub in Stamford is the premier clinic for customized BHRT to help patients feel their best once more. Our experienced medical staff uses cutting-edge therapies to restore hormone balance and vitality.
Hormone production peaks in our 20s and 30s, then slowly declines with age. Lifestyle factors like poor diet, lack of exercise, chronic stress and inadequate sleep can accelerate this decline. Imbalances lead to unpleasant symptoms that disrupt quality of life:
Both men and women experience these effects of aging, often feeling like just a "shell" of their younger selves. But BHRT can turn back the clock and help you feel energetic, mentally sharp, and healthy again!
Bioidentical hormones are substances that have identical molecular structure to the hormones our bodies produce naturally. They are synthesized from plant sources and tailored to match each patient's needs through compounding.
XZYHormones custom formulates personalized prescriptions using FDA-approved bioidentical estrogens, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA. We avoid synthetic hormones and one-size-fits-all approaches. Our medical team analyzes your symptoms, health profile and lab testing to determine the ideal hormone ratios for you.
Compared to synthetic versions, bioidentical hormones are natural, plant-based substances that are biochemically identical to the hormones produced by your own body. They are safe and have fewer side effects. Treatment is customized for your needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
The XZYHormones medical team has extensive training and expertise in hormone balancing therapies. Our practitioners stay current on the latest research and best practices. We take time to listen to your concerns and collaboratively develop an effective treatment plan.
We understand the life-changing impact that balanced hormones can have on your health and vitality. Our commitment is to:
The first step is a thorough evaluation of your symptoms, medical history and health habits. Basic lab panels check complete blood count, metabolic profile, liver and kidney function, nutrient status, and markers of inflammation and immunity.
More extensive hormone tests are done to measure levels of:
Based on your symptoms and test results, your XZYHormones practitioner will design a customized treatment plan. We use bioidentical hormones, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other natural agents to restore optimal balance.
Follow-up testing is done regularly to ensure your body is responding as intended. Your prescription is adjusted over time to keep your hormones in harmony. With an individualized approach guided by science, you can finally feel like yourself again!
Bioidentical hormones are custom-compounded to match a person's natural hormone levels. Unlike synthetic hormones, they are molecularly identical to those made by the human body. This allows the body to recognize and utilize them more efficiently. Some benefits include alleviated menopause symptoms, improved mood and sleep, and reduced risk of osteoporosis.
The right combination and dosage of bioidentical hormones is unique to your own biochemistry and needs. However, these are some of the most common and beneficial hormone therapies we offer:
Declining estrogen levels cause many symptoms in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women: hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, trouble sleeping, weight gain, accelerated aging and loss of breast fullness. Estrogen deficiency also increases long-term risks for osteoporosis, heart disease and dementia.
We prescribe tri-estrogen formulas containing:
Estriol and estrone complement estradiol's effects. For symptom relief, these bioidentical estrogens can be taken orally, sublingually, transdermally via gels/creams, or injected. Estrogen restores collagen and moisture, promoting youthful skin and healthy bones, arteries, brain and more.
Progesterone is crucial for balancing the effects of estrogen in women. With estrogen dominance, insufficient progesterone increases risks for uterine cancer, fibroids and heavy irregular bleeding.
Bioidentical progesterone has multiple benefits:
We offer bioidentical progesterone in capsule, sublingual drops or topical cream form. Correct progesterone balance relieves many common menopause concerns.
Testosterone levels naturally decline 1-2% per year after age 30 in both men and women. Low testosterone causes:
Restoring testosterone with bioidentical forms like testosterone cypionate helps rebuild lean muscle, boost energy, elevate mood and improve sexual health. Careful monitoring ensures levels stay within the healthy range for your gender. Testosterone is available as topical gels/creams, injectable or pellet therapy.
DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is produced by the adrenal glands and critical for the proper functioning of other key hormones. DHEA:
DHEA levels decline significantly from peak production in our 20s. Supplementing with bioidentical DHEA tablets or capsules often has rejuvenating effects, especially on energy, sexual function and mental acuity.
Balancing your hormones is a major step toward regaining wellness and vitality. But a comprehensive approach also includes optimizing nutrition, physical activity, stress management and sleep habits.
Our physicians and nutritionists will work with you to develop healthy lifestyle modifications. Recommendations may include:

We offer a complete range of delivery methods to match your needs and preferences: oral capsules/tablets, sublingual drops, transdermal gels/creams, injectable forms, pellet inserts and more. Your treatment plan is customized.
Most patients report initial improvements in energy, sleep, mood and mental clarity within the first 1-2 weeks. Further enhancements in metabolism, sexual function, skin quality and additional metrics often occur over the first 1-3 months. Full benefits are usually sustained after 6 months of balanced replacement therapy.
Prescribed properly and monitored through testing, bioidentical hormone therapies are very safe and much lower risk than synthetic hormones. However those with certain cancers or other contraindications may not be candidates. Your practitioner will conduct a full evaluation. Helpful Resources in Stamford
