Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Hormone Replacement Therapy, also called HRT, may be considered for patients experiencing symptoms related to menopause, perimenopause, or clinically confirmed hormone deficiency. [1] Treatment decisions should be individualized and based on a medical assessment, health history, symptoms, laboratory findings when appropriate, and a discussion of potential benefits and risks.

For some women, hormone therapy may help relieve bothersome menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. In appropriate candidates, hormone therapy may also help prevent bone loss.

For men with symptoms of clinically confirmed low testosterone, BHRT may help improve concerns such as low sex drive, erectile function, low mood, anemia, and decreased bone mineral density.

Potential benefits of hormone therapy may include:

• Relief from hot flashes and night sweats in menopausal women
• Improvement in vaginal dryness or discomfort related to menopause
• Support for bone health and prevention of bone loss in appropriate candidates
• Improvement in symptoms related to clinically confirmed testosterone deficiency in men
• Possible improvement in low libido when related to a diagnosed hormone deficiency
• Possible improvement in fatigue, mood changes, or concentration concerns when these symptoms are linked to a confirmed hormone imbalance
• Individualized treatment planning based on symptoms, medical history, risk factors, and appropriate testing

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

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 are 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.

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, and sleep quality. By supporting his vitality, a man can enjoy longevity on many fronts.

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.

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.

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.

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.

At the start of your HRT process, close monitoring of your hormone levels is essential to achieve a state of balance and harmony. During your consultation your symptoms and medical history will be thoroughly evaluated to determine the most appropriate treatment.

We understand that only you can truly know how you feel, and we are committed to working together with you until we identify the best possible solution for your specific needs and goals.

Inserting the pellets is just the beginning of the HRT process. Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D.’s commitment to monitoring and precision only increases from there. You’ll maintain ongoing communication with him and Rejuuv Medi Spa’s knowledgeable staff, providing feedback as the hormone therapy progresses in your body.

Rejuuv Medi Spa will routinely check your blood 6 weeks after your HRT session . If needed, Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. will make adjustments to your hormone treatment plan to ensure you achieve the best possible results.

Aging is a natural process, but it shouldn’t have to be uncomfortable. Hormone replacement therapy can restore balance to your life by rejuvenating the intricate chemical reactions happening within your body.

As each patient is unique, everyone experiences different results. However, in general, HRT can increase energy levels and regulate mood. There is also preliminary evidence suggesting that hormone replacement therapy may reduce the risk of certain types of dementia [2] To experience the miraculous benefits of HRT in Toronto, call (905) 6956956.

Medically supervised treatment that restores key hormones, such as estrogen, progesterone or testosterone, to healthy, youthful levels. At Rejuuv, treatment is personalized by a physician based on your symptoms, medical history, bloodwork, and treatment goals, and is commonly provided using a bioidentical hormone pellet inserted under the skin for gradual hormone release over time.

Treatment begins with bloodwork and a physician consultation to assess your hormone levels, symptoms, and overall health. Your physician then creates a personalized treatment plan and adjusts it over time based on follow up bloodwork and how you are feeling. For patients using hormone pellets, insertion is typically repeated approximately every 3 months for women and every 4 months for men, depending on individual response. Some patients may instead receive hormones through intramuscular (IM) injections. Ongoing bloodwork is required to monitor hormone levels, treatment response, and safety.

Therapy is prescribed and monitored by physicians with regular lab checks, so your levels and your health stay on track. But like with all medical procedures, there can be risks. HRT is a complex process, that’s why you should not tamper with your chemical balance without the help of a knowledgeable, trained medical professional. Dr. Shawn Seit, M.D. has pioneered and perfected the science of hormone replacement to safely optimize your hormones, bringing your body into balance.

It can take a few weeks for you to feel the initial benefits of hormone replacement therapy. These benefits will increase over the next few months as your body adjusts. The key to successful HRT is respecting your body’s unique chemistry and complementing it with the correct formula.

Not necessarily. How long you remain on hormone therapy depends on why you started treatment, how well it is working, your changing health needs, and the balance of benefits and risks. Many patients who feel meaningful improvement in their symptoms choose to continue treatment long term, with regular physician review and ongoing monitoring to make sure it remains appropriate for them.

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.
