Do you need Testosterone Therapy in your Thirties?

We all feel the changes in our bodies and minds when puberty hits us. The hormonal changes start taking place at this time. Girls and boys experience different types of changes. While the change that you started noticing during your teenage years, will keep on happening throughout your life. As a result, how men will feel during their midlife hormonal changes is not really similar to how women feel. Unfortunately, if you are a man and you are facing hormonal imbalance, chances are you will not even know it. Hence, men's hormone replacement therapy is often ignored even though it is extremely important to maintain the proper testosterone levels for a healthy life.

Symptoms of hormonal imbalance:

When you are in your midlife and you are noticing certain physical changes, you should consider seeing a doctor. The symptoms can be subtle or easily mistaken for changes related to age. Keep an eye out for the most common symptoms of hormonal imbalance so that you can get men's hormone replacement therapy at the right time:

• Weight gain

• Lack of motivation or fatigue or tiredness

• Joint pain

• Low libido

• Insomnia or disturbance in sleep

• Tension/ stress/ anxiety

• Irritability

BHRT – What is it?

Bioidentical Hormonal Replacement Therapy, or BHRT is a hormonal replacement therapy. In this therapy, you will be administered synthetic hormones that will support the hormones produced in your body. Actually, with age, hormone production gets compromised. Depending on your requirement, the BHRT dosage is customized. Hence, BHRT is a more effective men's hormone replacement therapy in comparison to mass-produced hormonal medicines. Generally, synthetic hormones refer to Premarin, created by concentrating pregnant mare’s urine, or injectable testosterone, etc.

BHRT pellets and their insertion:

BHRT pellets are small hormonal pellets that are inserted right below the skin. These pellets are customized depending on how bad your hormonal imbalance is. Since bioidentical hormones are sourced from natural resources, these are much safer than chemical hormone medicines. As a result, you will notice fewer side effects.

If you are worried that the pellets will be painful to insert, you are completely wrong. The insertion process is very simple. A skilled healthcare professional will perform local anesthesia on your buttocks and administer the pellets through a small incision. You can take painkillers in case you feel pain. Healthcare professionals determine the dosage required for you only after getting your blood tested.
