Hormones function as the “mission control” of the human body, dictating so many of the physical changes we experience throughout our lives. As hormonal levels shift, so do our appearances, moods, and more. And it’s not just aging—hormones can become unbalanced as the result of stress, surgery, lack of sleep, an unhealthy diet, and more. The team at Preventative Medical Clinic specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) to help people from Omaha, Papillion, Council Bluffs, Elkhorn, and Bennington, NE, and nearby areas rebalance their hormones and feel better than they have in years.
BHRT is a protocol that uses exogenous bioidentical hormones to balance the levels in the body. Hormones that are commonly affected by aging and stress include estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and growth hormone—all naturally present in both men and women. Fluctuating levels of these hormones can lead to unpleasant physical symptoms, including the following:
Hot flashes
Night sweats
Vaginal dryness
Reduced libido
Painful intercourse
Sleep disturbances
Fatigue
Loss of muscle mass
Weight gain
“Brain fog” or unfocused thoughts
Moodiness
Memory loss

Bioidentical vs. synthetic
Both bioidentical hormones and synthetic hormones are used in hormone therapy. However, we only use bioidentical products at PMC. These naturally derived products are more easily metabolized by the body, and they can be better matched to the individual’s needs. These high-quality products are administered in 1 of the following ways, depending on your needs:
Pellets, which are inserted just beneath the skin several times per year
Transdermal cream, which is prescribed to use at home
Sublingual troches, a lozenge that dissolves beneath the tongue
Injections: Self-administered in the thigh after training from one of our health care providers

For Men| Male growth hormones begin diminishing after about age 20, leading to loss of muscle mass, reduced sex drive, and mood swings. BHRT for men replenishes these hormones to improve the way you look and feel.
For Women| BHRT for women can reduce the symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, and even PMS. We can help improve your libido, reduce weight gain, improve your sleep quality, and more.
