Welcome to Revive Hormones, your premier hormone therapy clinic serving the Warren County area. We specialize in treatment plans tailored to your unique needs using cutting-edge therapies to optimize your health, wellbeing, and quality of life.
Hormones are the body's chemical messengers that regulate nearly all physiological processes. They are produced by the endocrine system, a network of glands that release hormones into the bloodstream to coordinate growth, metabolism, reproduction, cognition, and more.
When hormone levels drop below optimal ranges, you may experience unpleasant signs and symptoms that impact daily living. Our expert staff is here to listen to your concerns, then customize an effective treatment plan based on advanced testing. We consider lifestyle modifications as well as prescription hormone medications including tablets, injections, gels, and pellets as needed.
Benefits of Balanced Hormones:
Balancing your hormones reactivates your body's innate capacity to thrive as nature intended, regardless of your age or gender.
The first step is determining which hormones may be out of optimal range for you personally using comprehensive lab testing. We measure reproductive and stress hormones using blood, saliva, and/or urine samples.
Testing provides insight into:
Clinical exams allow our practitioners to consider your symptoms when interpreting lab results. For example, high or low estrogen may cause vastly different issues potentially needing customized treatment plans. Follow-up testing helps monitor patient progress in response to therapies.

| Fatigue |
| Weight gain or loss |
| Hot flashes |
| Night sweats |
| Vaginal dryness |
| Loss of muscle mass |
| Brain fog |
| Anxiety or irritability |
| Depression |

Diagnosing precisely which hormones are involved is key for developing personalized treatment plans, as no two patients' needs are exactly alike.

Men produce hormones like testosterone predominantly in the testes. Some originate from the adrenal glands above each kidney as well.
Testosterone powers male sexual development during adolescence and fuels libido while regulating physique and energy metabolism lifelong. Normal aging and illness can disrupt healthy testosterone flow, leading to unpleasant effects.
Without enough testosterone, men often cannot function at full capacity. Restoring balance revitalizes health quite dramatically.
Benefits of Testosterone Therapy May Include:
Revive Hormones specializes in diagnosing and treating low testosterone utilizing cutting-edge hormone balancing protocols personalized to the individual based on lab testing and symptoms.
We provide long consultations to understand your health goals, crafting customized therapies including pharmaceutical-grade testosterone via injections, gels, or pellets dosed according to your physiology. Follow-up testing allows adjusting dosages to optimize your hormone balance.
Many clients report life-changing results - emerging from brain fog to discover passion, strength, and joy once more. We also guide patients on lifestyle upgrades further enhancing treatment success.
Humans now live decades longer than our ancestors thanks to modern healthcare. However, with extended lifespan comes rising rates of chronic disease, disability, and dementia severely undermining one's older years.
Around age 30, hormones begin slowly declining about 1-3% annually. Cumulatively, this depletion advances aging's untoward effects. Balancing key hormones can dramatically slow this downward spiral - optimizing health, function, and vitality lifelong.
Hormones Declining With Age:
Lab testing reveals one's individual hormone levels, then treatments aim to restore more youthful concentrations via gels, pellets, patches, and injections dosing bioidentical hormones the body recognizes.
Resulting benefits slow progressive aging and keep you vibrant across the decades! Consider hormone optimization to enhance your coming years with strength, clarity, and enjoyment.
Many women struggle through perimenopause and menopause due to falling estrogen/progesterone and unpleasant effects, including hot flashes, insomnia, vaginal dryness, weight gain, and mood volatility. Historically, stigma and misinformation shrouded potentially helpful treatment options.
Let's Debunk Some Key Myths:
Myth: Hormone therapy causes breast cancer.
Fact: An influential 2002 study did link hormone use to slightly elevated breast cancer risk. However, numerous higher-quality analyses since found no increased risk for most women, especially when balancing topicals and bioidenticals are used.^(1)
Myth: You should abruptly stop hormones at menopause.
Fact: When initiated around menopause and taken at appropriate doses based on symptoms/testing, hormone therapy is safe for at least 5-7 years, often longer-term. More risk comes from stopping suddenly.^(2)
Myth: Systemic HRT ("pills") carries more risks than localized creams or gels.
Fact: Well-absorbed topical creams, gels, and vaginal estrogen optimally treat stubborn symptoms (sleep, sexual function) with minimal risks demonstrated. Pills, however, seem more likely associated with clots and related cardiovascular complications.^(3)
Myth: Bioidentical hormones are unsafe or untested.
Fact: Compounded bioidentical hormones match natural human hormones more closely than typical standard drugs, binding properly to our cell receptors with excellent safety over decades of use. They are highly pure and quality-tested.^(4)
Work closely with your doctor to make informed choices about managing menopause or perimenopause symptoms via lifestyle approaches, hormone balancing, and more. Quality of life often significantly improves when bothersome issues are properly addressed!
Injectable testosterone cypionate and enanthate traditionally restored lagging T levels in hypogonadal men. However, modern options better meet individual needs and preferences with excellent effectiveness and safety.
Novel Approaches Gaining Popularity Include:
Topical Gels - Customizable dosing absorbs through the skin directly into circulation, avoiding intestinal and liver processing. Brands like Androgel, Testim, and Axiron dry rapidly with minimal transference risk.
Oral capsules (Jatenzo) - Convenient pills taken by mouth twice daily mimic natural testosterone circadian release. Bypasses liver metabolizing oral tablets.
Buccal tablets - Placed against the gum or inner cheek, these fully dissolve for efficient absorption. Brands like Striant or Actient are easy-to-use alternatives.
Nasal gels (Natesto) - Unique pump bottle distributes testosterone via nasal mucosa straight into tiny vessels, reaching circulation quickly. No skin application.
Pellets - Bioidentical hormone pellets implanted under the skin steadily release testosterone for months without the need for frequent dosing. Avoid daily gels.
Annual industry revenues for testosterone replacement continue growing exponentially, expecting to hit $5 billion by 2025, indicating therapy popularity.^(1) Beyond improving libido and energy, benefits like building bone density, muscle mass, and emotional vigor keep men thriving across the decades.
Talk to your doctor about whether T therapy aligns with your health goals. Significant lifestyle upgrades may await!
Medications allow efficiently restoring hormonal harmony; however, certain lifestyle upgrades further boost treatment benefits. We educate patients on adopting healthy regimes enhancing mind/body wellness lifelong.
Recommendations Include:
Nutrition: Eating whole foods high in antioxidants and healthy fats while minimizing sugars, processed carbs, and toxins reduces inflammation and nutrient deficiencies impairing hormone function.
Supplements: Essentials like vitamin D, zinc, omega oils, adaptogens, and botanicals (maca, tribulus, ashwagandha) nourish glands producing hormones naturally.
Stress Reduction: High cortisol from chronic anxieties inhibits proper hormonal flow. Relaxation practices like yoga, meditation, nature immersion restore calm. Good sleep hygiene allows repair.
Strength Training: Lifting weights triggers muscles to request more testosterone and growth hormone from the endocrine system. Even 30 minutes several times weekly promotes hormone optimization.
Sensuality: Enjoying intimacy, pleasure, and affection (especially with a stable, caring partner) sustains healthy sexual energies. Stay playful.
Joy and Purpose: When passionately engaged toward meaningful goals providing a sense of contribution, the mind-body system thrives holistically. Discover your unique gifts.
Implementing such lifestyle medicine enhances hormone therapy success while reducing reliance on medications over time.
