Why Nava

What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to restore optimal hormone levels in the body. As we age or face certain health conditions, our natural hormone production such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone begins to decline.

At Nava Health, we specialize in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to help men and women restore hormonal balance naturally. Unlike synthetic hormones, BHRT uses plant-based compounds that are chemically identical to the hormones produced by your body. This approach supports safer, more effective results with fewer side effects.

Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women

Hormone therapy for women at Nava Health addresses the complex changes that occur during perimenopause, menopause, and even younger hormonal imbalances caused by stress, thyroid issues, or other health concerns.

Common symptoms BHRT helps women relieve:

  • Hot flashes and night sweats
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Vaginal dryness and discomfort
  • Weight gain and slowed metabolism
  • Mood swings and brain fog
  • Low energy and libido

Many women come to us after years of feeling “off” or “not themselves.” Our bioidentical hormone therapy in Columbia, MD restores balance naturally using plant-derived estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone customized to your unique hormonal profile.

Whether you’re dealing with PMS, fertility challenges, perimenopause, or menopause, Nava’s expert hormone doctors are here to guide your journey to wellness.

Looking for HRT therapy or HRT for menopause? We offer safer, more natural options than traditional synthetic HRT.

Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men

Just like women, men experience hormonal changes especially declining testosterone levels starting as early as their 30s. This condition, often referred to as andropause or “male menopause,” can lead to a host of frustrating symptoms that affect your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Common symptoms in men include:

  • Low energy and stamina
  • Weight gain and muscle loss
  • Erectile dysfunction or low libido
  • Brain fog and forgetfulness
  • Mood swings and mild depression
  • Trouble sleeping

Our testosterone replacement therapy uses bioidentical testosterone to safely and effectively restore optimal hormone levels. Unlike synthetic treatments, BHRT mimics your body’s natural testosterone for better absorption and fewer side effects.

We’re a trusted testosterone clinic, helping men feel stronger, sharper, and more alive without guessing or generic treatment plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age should I consider hormone replacement therapy?
Nava suggests checking hormone levels starting at age 40, especially with symptoms like imbalance, menopause, or andropause. Being proactive can help prevent issues later, and testing while feeling good gives a baseline for future comparisons.
Does hormone therapy interfere with other medications I might be taking?
Generally, BHRT doesn’t interact with other medications. In fact, balanced hormones might reduce the need for other medications over time.
Do I need lab work before starting hormone therapy?

Yes, lab testing is a key part of your treatment at Nava Health. It helps us identify specific hormone imbalances and create a personalized plan based on your unique needs.

How Does Anxiety Impact Hormone Balance in Men?
Anxiety causes the body to release more cortisol and adrenaline, which can disrupt hormone levels and lower testosterone — crucial for muscle strength, energy, and libido — potentially contributing to weight gain and reduced sexual desire. BHRT can effectively address these imbalances, potentially easing anxiety.
Is hormone therapy safe?

Hormone therapy is safe for women who use it while under the care of an experienced and qualified doctor.

Many recent studies have shown that bio-identical hormone therapy like that used by Nava may even decrease the risk of heart disease and breast cancer. Nava does not use synthetic hormones that have been shown to cause an increased risk.

Both the 2008 Breast Cancer Research and Treatment study and the 2005 International Journal of Cancer study referenced above also found that women using estrogen combined with bio-identical progesterone showed no increased risk of breast cancer, as opposed to those using synthetic progestin.

Both studies also found a trend toward a reduced risk of breast cancer overall for women using bio-identical hormones compared to women who had never used any hormone therapy at all.
