Hormone Replacement Is
the Key to Anti-Aging
The hormones are molecular messengers that operate between the brain and the cells. They control just about every aspect of human function. In addition to energy production, this includes body composition, digestion, healing immune function, memory and mood, sexual function, skin thickness, strength, and tissue regeneration-everything.
After the reproductive age, say around 35 (but in some cases even earlier) the body’s production of hormones starts a steady decline. The question is not if you are going to become hormone deficient rather it is when and how significant the deficiencies will be. The major difference between you at age 50 versus you at age 25 is hormonal.
For hormonal deficiencies we offer:
- Biote pellet insertion (Both Angela Myers, APRN and Celeste Lind APRN are trained in the procedure)
- Bioidentical Creams and troches (Angela Myers, APRN is trained in the Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) and has been doing this therapy for 22 years)

What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
What is Bioidentical Hormone
Replacement Therapy?
As we age, our bodies naturally start to reduce the amount of hormones like testosterone and estrogen they produce. Hormones such as these are incredibly important to how many areas of your body function – such as your brain, heart, bones, reproductive organs, and more. When these hormones are out of balance, people can experience a number of different symptoms.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a method of restoring the balance of your hormones and aiming to relieve these symptoms, using compounded hormones that are identical in structure to those your body naturally produces. That way, your body recognizes and uses these replacement hormones in exactly the same way it would hormones it produces naturally.

The Biote Method of hormone optimization is the result of condensing over 80 years of scientific research into a program that may help with the earliest signs of aging. The Biote Method uses pellets, which are about the size of a grain of rice, for hormone optimization. Your provider at The Medical Healing Center inserts these tiny pellets under the skin during a simple, in-office procedure.
The pellets will then dissolve slowly over time – they only need to be re-administered approximately every 3-5 months, depending on the patient. As the pellets dissolve, they release a steady stream of hormones into your bloodstream and will ultimately be completely absorbed, leaving nothing behind.
The Importance of Hormone Balance
The Importance of
Hormone Balance
Most women see a significant drop in estrogen and testosterone during menopause, while many men may experience a similar phenomenon relating to testosterone, known as andropause. Hormonal imbalances occur when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream. Hormones are important for regulating most major bodily processes. Because of their essential role in the body, even the smallest hormonal imbalance can cause side effects throughout the body.
