Fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and a loss of that spark you once had — these aren’t just inevitable signs of aging. They’re often signs of a hormonal imbalance that can be addressed. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) offers a natural, personalized approach to restoring the balance your body needs to feel and function at its best.
At Ivy Aesthetics and Wellness Center, Dr. William Gartlan, DO, delivers physician-led care with a genuine commitment to your long-term wellness. As a medically supervised practice in Williamsburg, VA, Ivy Aesthetics and Wellness Center is dedicated to providing treatments that help you reclaim your energy, confidence, and quality of life.
What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
BHRT uses hormones that are chemically identical to those your body naturally produces. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are derived from natural sources and precisely matched to your body’s own hormones at the molecular level — making them easier for the body to recognize and use effectively.
At Ivy Aesthetics and Wellness Center, BHRT may include the following hormones based on your individual needs:
-
Estrogen
-
Progesterone
-
Testosterone
-
DHEA
-
Thyroid hormones
Your treatment plan is built around your unique hormone profile — not a one-size-fits-all formula.
Who Is a Candidate for BHRT?
BHRT may be right for you if you’re experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance, such as:
-
Persistent fatigue or low energy
-
Mood changes, anxiety, or depression
-
Unexplained weight gain
-
Low libido
-
Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
-
Hot flashes or night sweats
-
Poor or disrupted sleep
Both men and women can benefit from BHRT. A thorough consultation and lab work with Dr. Gartlan will determine whether this approach is the right fit for your health and goals.
What to Expect With BHRT
Your BHRT journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Gartlan. He will review your symptoms, medical history, and lab results to design a customized hormone plan tailored to your body’s needs. Nothing is prescribed until there is a clear, complete picture of where your hormones stand.
BHRT is available in several delivery methods, and Dr. Gartlan will help you choose the option that best fits your lifestyle and wellness goals. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress and fine-tune your plan as your body responds to treatment.
