What is Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a treatment designed to balance your hormone levels with hormones that are chemically identical to those your body produces naturally. Unlike traditional hormone replacement therapies that often use synthetic hormones, BHRT uses plant-derived hormones that closely match the hormones your body would normally produce. This makes BHRT a safer, more natural option for restoring balance and alleviating symptoms caused by hormone imbalances.
Physical Symptoms of Hormonal Imbalance
Hormonal imbalances can manifest in a variety of physical symptoms, some of which may interfere with your daily life. Common signs include:
- Persistent fatigue that doesn't improve with rest
- Unexplained weight gain or loss, despite changes in diet or activity levels
- Hot flashes and night sweats that disrupt your sleep and daily routine
- Hair thinning or loss, which can affect your self-esteem
- Skin changes, such as acne, dryness, or increased sensitivity
These symptoms can range from mild to severe, and because they often overlap with other health conditions, identifying the root cause can be challenging. That's why proper diagnosis and personalized treatment are essential for effective relief. At Ascends Natural Medicine, we take a thorough, holistic approach to evaluating your symptoms and creating a treatment plan that addresses the underlying hormonal imbalances.
Emotional and Cognitive Symptoms
Hormonal imbalances don’t just affect your physical health—they can also take a toll on your emotional and mental well-being. Common emotional and cognitive symptoms include:
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression, which may feel overwhelming or unmanageable
- Difficulty concentrating or brain fog, making it hard to focus or remember things clearly
These symptoms can interfere with your ability to enjoy life, work, and maintain relationships. Addressing the hormonal imbalance behind these changes is key to regaining emotional balance and mental clarity.
Reproductive and Sexual Symptoms
Hormonal fluctuations can also lead to reproductive and sexual health issues. Common signs include:
- Irregular menstrual cycles or heavy periods, which may be unpredictable or cause significant discomfort
- Low libido or sexual dysfunction, impacting intimacy and your sense of well-being
These symptoms can be distressing, but they are often a sign of a deeper hormonal imbalance that can be corrected with the right treatment plan. At Ascends Natural Medicine, we help restore harmony to your hormonal health, addressing these concerns with personalized care that supports your overall health and vitality.
How BHRT Works?
At Ascends Natural Medicine, Dr. Lakshmi Nandyala and our team take a personalized approach to hormone therapy. The first step is a thorough evaluation of your health, including blood tests to measure your hormone levels. Based on the results and your symptoms, we develop a tailored BHRT treatment plan that is specific to your needs.
The treatment typically involves hormone delivery methods such as:
- Creams and gels: Applied to the skin for gradual absorption
- Patches: Worn on the skin to provide consistent hormone delivery
- Pellets: Small, time-released pellets inserted under the skin
- Injections: Administered directly into the bloodstream for immediate effect
Benefits of Hormone Therapy Replacement
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a natural and highly effective treatment designed to restore balance to your body’s hormones, addressing the root causes of many hormonal imbalances. By replenishing the hormones your body is lacking or overproducing, BHRT offers a wide range of benefits that can dramatically improve your overall health and quality of life.
Here are some of the key benefits you can expect from hormone therapy replacement:
Improved Energy and Vitality
Hormonal imbalances often lead to chronic fatigue and low energy levels, making it difficult to keep up with daily demands. Our treatments optimize hormone production to boost energy, helping you feel revitalized and ready to take on life’s challenges.
Better Emotional Well-Being
Fluctuations in hormone levels can significantly affect your mood, leading to anxiety, depression, or irritability. Our therapies address these imbalances to stabilize your emotions, promote mental clarity, and support a more positive state of mind.
Support for Weight Management
Struggling with unexplained weight changes can be frustrating and disheartening. Our customized plans regulate metabolism by addressing thyroid or insulin imbalances, helping you achieve and maintain a healthy weight more effectively.
Better Sleep Quality
Hormonal disruptions can interfere with your ability to fall or stay asleep, leaving you feeling unrested and fatigued. Our treatments target imbalances in melatonin, cortisol, and other hormones to restore restful sleep, enhancing overall well-being.
Boosted Libido and Sexual Health
Sexual dysfunction or a lack of desire can stem from low testosterone, estrogen imbalances, or stress. Our personalized hormone therapies restore balance to these essential hormones, reigniting your libido and improving sexual satisfaction.
Improved Skin and Hair Health
Skin issues like dryness, acne, or premature aging and hair thinning are often signs of hormonal imbalance. By restoring harmony to your hormones, our treatments enhance skin hydration, clarity, and elasticity while promoting healthier, fuller hair growth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hormone Therapy Replacement
Hormone treatment can be a transformative step in improving your overall well-being, but it's common to have questions about the process. At Ascends Natural Medicine, we believe in providing you with clear, accurate information to help you make informed decisions about your health. Below, we’ve addressed some of the most frequently asked questions about hormone treatment to guide you on your journey toward balance and wellness.
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) involves using plant-based hormones that are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body. BHRT is a natural and effective way to restore hormonal balance, helping to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause, perimenopause, thyroid disorders, and more. These hormones are typically delivered in the form of creams, gels, pellets, or oral medications.
If you're experiencing symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, or brain fog, it could be a sign of a hormonal imbalance. The best way to know if hormone therapy is right for you is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Lakshmi Nandyala. We will conduct a thorough evaluation, including blood tests, to assess your hormone levels and determine the most effective treatment plan for your needs.
BHRT can help alleviate a wide range of symptoms caused by hormonal imbalances, including:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Fatigue and low energy
- Mood swings, anxiety, and depression
- Sleep disturbances
- Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
- Decreased libido
- Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
- Skin changes and hair thinning
Results vary depending on the individual, but many patients start to feel improvements within a few weeks to a couple of months after beginning BHRT. These improvements may include increased energy, better mood, improved sleep, and relief from symptoms like hot flashes. It’s important to work with Dr. Nandyala to regularly monitor your hormone levels and adjust treatment as necessary to achieve the best results.
Hormone treatment can provide a range of benefits, depending on your specific symptoms and needs. Some of the most common benefits include:
- Restored energy levels
- Improved mood and emotional well-being
- Better sleep quality
- Enhanced libido and sexual function
- Support for weight management
- Reduction in hot flashes, night sweats, and other menopause-related symptoms
- Improved skin health and hair vitality
Yes, lifestyle changes play an important role in supporting hormonal health. Nutrition, exercise, stress management, and sleep hygiene are all crucial factors in maintaining balanced hormones. Dr. Nandyala will provide you with personalized guidance on diet and lifestyle modifications that complement your hormone treatment and enhance overall well-being. Eating a balanced diet, managing stress effectively, and staying physically active can all improve your response to treatment.
Hormone imbalances are typically diagnosed through a combination of reviewing your symptoms, medical history, and specialized lab testing. Common tests may include thyroid hormone panels (TSH, T3, T4), reproductive hormone testing (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone), adrenal function assessments (cortisol levels), and blood sugar regulation tests. Based on the results of these tests, Dr. Nandyala will create a personalized treatment plan to restore balance and improve your health.
The duration of hormone treatment depends on the nature of the hormonal imbalance and your individual response to therapy. Some patients may only require treatment for a few months, while others may need long-term therapy to maintain balanced hormone levels. Dr. Nandyala will monitor your progress and make necessary adjustments to your treatment plan to ensure you achieve optimal health.
Not necessarily. The goal of hormone treatment is to restore balance, and many patients can maintain improved hormonal health with fewer interventions over time. In some cases, lifestyle changes and other complementary therapies may help you maintain balanced hormones without ongoing treatment. Regular check-ups with Dr. Nandyala will allow us to adjust your treatment plan as needed to suit your evolving health needs.
Yes, BHRT is considered safe when administered under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider, like Dr. Lakshmi Nandyala. Because the hormones used in BHRT are structurally identical to the ones your body produces naturally, they are well-tolerated by most individuals. However, as with any medical treatment, it’s important to undergo a thorough evaluation and have your progress regularly monitored to ensure safety and effectiveness.
