Low T
Testosterone hormones are important for men’s health and vitality, although women can also be impacted. The amount of testosterone in the body declines gradually as we age. For some men and women, this decline is more dramatic, and it can result in a number of side effects that can negatively impact quality of life.
It is estimated that 39% of men, ages 40-55, have low or inadequate testosterone levels. The good news is that testosterone replacement therapy via BHRT can be effective in reversing the effects of hormonal imbalance, decreasing symptoms significantly.

How Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) Works
Unlike synthetic hormone replacement therapy, BHRT uses hormones that are biologically identical to the hormones in our bodies. Derived from natural plant sources such as soy and yams, bioidentical hormones can be more easily assimilated by the body without the side effects commonly associated with synthetics.
Senara in Peoria offers the ultimate solution for hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Our approach to BHRT is centered around personalized care, ensuring that each patient receives a customized treatment plan based on their unique hormonal imbalances. Through a simple laboratory test, our experienced doctors can identify any deficiencies or imbalances in hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol, thyroid, and vitamin D. Once identified, bioidentical hormones are prescribed and compounded by a specialty pharmacy trained in BHRT. The proper balance of hormones can have a profound impact on various aspects of health, including weight loss efforts. By leveling your hormones, you can improve your weight loss results exponentially. Senara's comprehensive approach to hormone replacement in Peoria guarantees that your journey towards balance and optimal well-being is in the hands of experts.
To ensure optimal results, your Senara medical weight-loss doctor will monitor and retest your levels every six to eight weeks. By continually monitoring your hormone levels and symptoms, we can adjust your prescription to your individual needs as your body adjusts and recuperates.
Pellet Therapy
One of the most effective delivery methods of BHRT is pellet therapy. The bioIdentical hormones are compounded into a pellet form and injected into the hip or buttock. The pellets are slowly dissolved into the body, providing consistent delivery. Every three to six months, your Senara doctor will insert a new pellet, adjusting the compound to your new needs. Pellet injections are low maintenance and convenient to administer. They provide consistent hormone replacement therapy delivery.
