Hormone Replacement Therapy — Schaumburg, IL — thriveMD

Hormones have developed a bad reputation for two main reasons:

  1. Abuse by athletes or bodybuilders
  2. Side effects caused by synthetic hormones.


In the first example, this is the excessive use of hormones. In the second example, the side effects are caused by the differences in these synthetic hormones from the ones our bodies produce themselves. Bio-identical hormone replacement using bio-identical hormones has been shown to have a minor adverse effect while giving tremendous benefit.

Our Program

Our bio-identical hormone replacement program involves scheduling an initial consultation and a full panel lab draw to check your current levels. After that, you will have a follow-up appointment consultation with the doctor to discuss the lab findings, along with your current symptoms. The doctor will then decide which custom approach is best for you to optimize your health and hormones. Following this, you will need to have periodic lab draws and follow-up appointments to monitor your blood levels and progress. Once your levels have become stable and you feel better, a bi-annual lab check is required going forward to maintain your optimal health.
