Hormone imbalances can negatively impact both women and men. When hormones fall out of optimal ranges, patients may experience symptoms like fatigue, trouble sleeping, decreased libido, hot flashes, and more. Proper hormone therapy from specialists like Butterfly Hormone Center can relieve these symptoms and help patients regain their vitality.
There are a few key factors that contribute to falling hormone levels:
Catching and addressing hormone imbalances early on can help patients avoid complications down the road.
Some common symptoms of hormone deficiencies include:
Monitoring for these symptoms can clue patients into potential hormonal disruptions early, making treatment easier. Our specialists at Butterfly Hormone Center are experts at recognizing deficiency signs.
Getting hormone tests to establish baseline levels is key. From there, patients can track fluctuations over time. Butterfly Hormone Center offers state-of-the-art hormone testing to aid diagnosis. We evaluate levels of key hormones like:
Based on test outcomes and symptoms, our practitioners can then guide patients toward customized treatment plans. We also regularly retest hormones to assess therapy efficacy.

We also provide patients materials explaining key aspects of their specific therapy regimen.
Some of the main treatment approaches include:
Estrogen: - Tablets (Premarin©, Estrace©) - Creams/gels (Divigel©, Elestrin©) - Vaginal rings (Estring©) - Patches (Climara©, Vivelle-Dot©) - Injections
Testosterone: - Gels (Androgel©, Testim©) - Patches - Pellets - Injections (cypionate, enanthate) - Oral agents
Thyroid (T3/T4): - Levothyroxine tablets (Synthroid©, Levoxyl©) - Liothyronine (Cytomel©) - Natural dessicated thyroid agents

The method chosen will depend on the patient’s needs and preferences. Our experts help navigate these decisions.
Seeking timely care for hormone issues is crucial. Left untreated, patients risk complications like:
In women, plummeting estrogen and progesterone after menopause make bone loss three times more rapid. Every year, women lose up to 20% more bone mass than the preceding year.
Likewise, testosterone and thyroid deficiencies accelerate sarcopenia (loss of muscle/strength). Muscle mass may decrease up to 5% per decade after age 30. Low thyroid also worsens cholesterol levels over time.
The bottom line? Prioritizing hormonal health promotes better aging and reduces long-term consequences. Our experienced practitioners can detect imbalances early and initiate therapy for optimal outcomes.
Hormone therapy can help transgender individuals align their physical characteristics with their gender identity.
