Do you exercise regularly and maintain a healthy diet but still feel exhausted and gloomy?

This can be one of the side effects of the aging process. Our hormones naturally decrease with age and may result in weight gain, loss of energy, loss of sleep, irritability, loss of libido and mental clarity. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) gives you the choice to retake control of your body and mind. To learn how you can benefit from HRT in Toronto, contact Rejuuv Medi Spa.

What is HRT?

 

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a systemic approach to counter the impact of aging. The human body carries out numerous internal functions every second, and hormones play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth progression of these processes.

As we grow older, it can become increasingly challenging to sustain healthy bone density, muscle mass, and sexual drive. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can provide the necessary support to enhance your body’s natural abilities.

Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. possesses a profound understanding of various hormones in the body, including testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and thyroid hormones. As one of the experts on hormones globally, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will pay close attention to your requirements and create a customized treatment plan that caters to your symptoms and strengths. This is a meticulous and continuous process that Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will  personally monitor.

We are committed to accompanying you every step of the way on this journey. Your journey is our journey, every step of the way.

Aging affects men and women differently. Men seeking hormone replacement therapy may experience one or more of the following symptoms:

  • Thinning hair
  • Dry skin 
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Decreased libido
  • Mood swings
  • Weight gain
  • Fatigue
  • Anxiety and/or depression
  • Inability to focus

Female candidates for hormone replacement therapy may have one or more of the following symptoms: 

  • Thinning hair and dry skin
  • Anxiety and/or depression
  • Hot flashes
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Decreased libido
  • Menopause
  • Night sweats
  • Mood swings
  • Inability to focus
  • Loss of bone density

Women who have suffered from blood clots, liver disease, breast cancer, or ovarian cancer may not be ideal candidates for hormone therapy. During your individualized consultation, we will assess your situation to determine your eligibility for HRT.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)

At Rejuuv Medi Spa, we use plant-based Bio-Identical Hormones, substituting your hormones molecule for molecule. BHRT is a safer and more effective treatment, it contains no synthetics and no animal derivatives such as Premarin, which is made from horse urine.

Rejuuv Medi Spa avoids the complications of synthetic HRT compounds by emulating and amplifying the power of your own biology.

BHRT can optimize estrogen, testosterone, DHEA, progesterone, and thyroid hormonal levels. These compounds interact with each body differently, therefore Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. customizes their ratio to your molecular landscape and will simply fine-tune them . As the name suggests, the hormones in your individualized therapy should be identical to those that occur naturally in your body. To ensure that each patient receives the most suitable BHRT formula, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. insists on conducting a comprehensive consultation. Just as you wouldn’t use low-quality fuel in a high-performance engine, we believe that every patient deserves the appropriate level of attention and personalized care.

BHRT For Men

Testosterone is the main driver of the male libido, but finding the right balance is essential in delivering the perfect result. BHRT can benefit a man’s sex drive and endurance, but also increase his focus, sleep quality, and ability to attain and maintain lean muscle mass. By supporting his vitality, a man can fend off chronic illness and enjoy longevity on many fronts.

 

BHRT For Women

Menopause symptoms include night sweats and hot flashes. These are called vasomotor functions, and they are tied to the circulatory system and the nervous system. The brain tells the blood vessels how to counter change in hormonal levels, resulting in a sensation of overheating and fluctuations in heart rate. Some of the benefits of BHRT is treating these symptoms. When hormones are tailored directly to a woman’s body, she may experience increased vitality, clarity and regulated mood. 

 

Hormone Replacement Therapy Procedure

As soon as you step into our clinic, you will immediately feel at ease.                                        

Our team will attentively address your inquiries, listen to your concerns, and collaborate with you to create a strategy that best suits your needs. To determine your current health status, we’ll start with a blood test, which will provide Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. with a clear picture of what’s happening inside your body. After analyzing the results of your blood sample, the conversation continues. Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will share his findings with you and provide a comprehensive explanation of their significance. Using this information, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will create a customized hormone replacement therapy plan that is tailored specifically to your individual needs.

In recent years, significant progress has been made in HRT and BHRT fields. The inconvenient use of gels and creams is now a thing of the past. At Rejuuv Medi Spa, we employ the pellet and injection techniques for bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.

 

Pellet Therapy 

By using pellet therapy, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. ensures a steady and predictable physiological release of hormones, which avoids the up-and-down effects of other methods mentioned earlier. Depending on your individual needs and eligibility, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will insert small rice-sized pellets into the hip region, typically (1-2 pellets for women and 2-10 pellets for men). These pellets are customized and contain estrogen and/or testosterone for women, and testosterone for men. Occasionally an estrogen blocker might be needed.

 

Intramuscular (IM) Injections

IM injections are safer than topical therapies because the risk of unintentionally transferring testosterone to others is minimized. IM injections last for two weeks, compared to creams that require constant application. Injections are an efficient means of hormone delivery because it  flows directly into the bloodstream. Within 24 to 48 hours of administration, you will start feeling the benefits of your therapy.
