By 30, most of us will start to lose our key hormones that regulate our body and keep us young!
You gain fat, lose muscle, lose your sex drive, and increase risk for diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and a shorter life!
Fight back and take control of your health and your aging process.
The Facts
By the time you reach 40, hormone levels in the body, including the critical Human Growth Hormone (HGH), may be 50% less than 20 years prior. Hormone Replacement therapy (HRT) sets out to correct this imbalance and help you fight the affects of aging.
Hormones are engineered to form specific tasks in the body that all contribute to characteristics associated with youth. The attributes of muscular strength, sexual stamina, and bone density are produced by testosterone, abundant in males.
Conversely, estrogen is plentiful in women and helps speed up metabolism, maintains healthy blood vessels and skin, and regulates fluid balance.
Later in life, the cycles of Menopause and Andropause (“man-o-pause”) in women and men respectively, are known to have adverse affects on the production of key hormones in the human body, including Estrogen, Progesterone, and Testosterone.
For both males and females the Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is considered the most crucial hormone to regulate the body but it’s produced in less and less quantities as we get older, especially as we pass the age of 30.

Andropause is a biological change characterized by a gradual decline in androgens experienced by men during and after their mid-life. ~ The Endocrine Society.
For decades, women have used hormone treatment to prevent disease and retain the attributes of youth. Menopause, one of the surest signs of aging illustrates a painful period women endure as they fight ailments such as hot flashes, dry skin, mood swings and wrinkles. Even women lose muscle mass as they age. These symptoms usually afflict them as they reach the age of 50.
Could it be that a similar passage exists for men? Does this natural condition, which is built into women at birth, exist to some degree in male genes?
According to the Harvard Medical School, the difference between males and females is very small. It resides on just one gene in the Y chromosome, the sex-determined region Y (SRY).
“SRY is the tiny bit of DNA that’s required for the production of testosterone, and without testosterone, every fetus would be born looking like a girl even if it had a Y chromosome.”
Thus, testosterone is part of a group of male hormones called Androgens, which give men their physical characteristics including body hair, muscles, strength and larger body, mass. The term Androgen is a Greek word, which essentially means “man-maker”.
The production of Androgen is complex. The hypothalamus, an area in the brain, secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) also known as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, LHRH). This acts on the pituitary gland which is close by. Hormones are chemicals that are produced in one part of the body before traveling to another part to do their work. GnRH is a true hormone, but it doesn’t have a long commute; it acts on a nearby part of the brain, the pituitary gland.
As this gland responds to GnRH, the two additional hormones are secreted including follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
“FSH and LH were named for their effects on ovaries, but they are every bit as important for men; both act on the testicles, where LH triggers testosterone production and FSH, acting with testosterone, stimulates sperm production,” says the Harvard Medical Review.
The production of Testosterone gives males their deep voice and helps build big muscles. However, it also affects the behavior of men including aggressiveness, libido and sex drive. It may even affect the liver and contribute to towards the production of cholesterol. It’s important to realize that even women produce Testosterone in smaller degrees via the Adrenal gland.
During its role in controlling the metabolism of the human body, Testosterone may convert into something called estradiol, a primary female hormone. This final conversion may take place largely in fat cells, which is why obese males (and females) have higher estrogen levels than lean men (and women).
As men approach the age of 40, the production of Testosterone slows down by as much as 50%. This results in a number of age-related symptoms that are the male equivalent of menopause.
According to the Harvard Medical Review, aging men may lose 10 to 20 pounds of muscle, 15% of bone density, and almost 2 inches of height. It gets worse:
Red blood cell counts also drift down as you age. Sex drive shoots downwards and erectile dysfunction may also rear its ugly head!
Due to “Lower T” the average male may also experience other Andropause-symptoms including atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension, prostate disease, and psychological disorders.
Therefore, the phrase “Male Andropause” may be contentious but the symptoms and side-affects are very real. While women may have garnered the lion’s share of sympathy for menopausal-related conditions, men need to be very careful about their bodies as they pass the age of 40.
It’s for this reason that new Hormone Replacement Therapies have been developed specifically for men to combat the affects of Andropause and aging. Testosterone and Human Growth Hormone (HGH) are two key Androgens that The Regenx Medical Institute uses to get your body back into balance. Under the auspices of an onsite medical doctor, male patients undergo a rapid transformation that positively affects both their body and mind.
Neutraceutical supplementation focuses on vitamin and intracellular antioxidant levels to help re-balance hormones found in the human body. These hormones typically decline as you age leading to a number of age-related side affects.
Regenx Medical Institute distinguishes between two types of agents used in the battle to rebalance hormones in both men and women.
Natural Agents
Nutritional supplementation may help with both liver metabolism & estrogen metabolism. Neutraceuticals such as Indole-3 Carbinol, Diindolymethane (DIM), Vitamin B 6 and Green Tea are some of the natural agents that the Regenx Medical Institute is researching, testing and evaluating as part of its bioidentical hormone replacement therapy programs.
These key nutrients and fatty acids play an important role in helping metabolic activities in the liver for both men and women. Estrogen is also affected by neutraceutical administration.
Pharmaceutical Agents
Hormone Replacement Therapy using natural hormones or bioidentical hormones is generally considered the safest route to helping correct hormone imbalances under a medically supervised program.
Bioidentical hormones have the same molecular structure as naturally occurring hormones in the body and are extremely effective in helping men rebalance their hormones using testosterone and HGH.
HRT treatment using blended approaches to Neutraceutical agents can assist with combating weight gain, irritability, abnormal menstrual cycles and further assist with the long-term goal of negating muscle loss as men and women age.
Men may often attempt to ignore symptoms such as irritability; fatigue and weight gain as they age. These symptoms may spread further into their lives including lowering their libido and lowering muscle mass. In these instances, HGH therapy and Testosterone may be key bioidentical hormones that help them get their life back on track after undergoing an extensive medical examination.
The U.S. department of Health & Services, which operates the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has been conducting studies into the benefits of Testosterone therapy in older men.
At least 5 million men in the United States may suffer from a condition known as “Low T”, which speeds up aging and may even increase mortality rates.
The male testes that produce sperm also produce testosterone. But, as men age this production slows down and can contribute to a range of age-related symptoms.
Testosterone is responsible for libido and assists in regulating fat distribution, bone mass, muscle mass & strength, and the production of red blood cells.
The Endocrine Society reports that Low Testosterone levels are linked to the metabolic syndrome—a cluster of metabolic risk factors that increase the chances of developing heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes—and other health problems, including loss of bone and muscle mass, depression, and decreased libido.
Low Testosterone may cause:
Decreased ability to walk,
Loss of muscle mass and strength
Decreased vitality
Decreased sexual function
Impaired cognition
Cardiovascular disease & anemia
There is even research put forward by the NIH that older men with Low T counts could be at higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
The study suggested that on average, men who were diagnosed with AD, had 50% less Testosterone than those who didn’t develop the disease.
Increasingly, many are referring to the age-associated symptoms related to Low Tas contributing to the male version of Menopause called “Andropause”. Erectile dysfunction, including low libido, may in certain cases be directly related to Low Testosterone.
This has generated an interest in new hormone replacement therapy programs offered by medical clinics, including Regenx Medical Institute.
After undergoing an intensive medical examination, patients may receive Testosterone in the form of the following:
• Gels
• Patches
• Injectables
These are FDA-approved and only administered by an onsite doctor who has verified their benefits for a particular male patient.
Some patients may experience positive benefits within 30 days of treatment, including
• Decrease in heart attacks
• Lower inflammation
• Lowers cholesterol
• Lowers vascular disease and death
• Decrease in premature coronary artery disease
• Increases cardiac output allowing more air and oxygen intake. This means you can breathe like a 20-year-old and display greater stamina!
• Deters metabolic syndrome
• Decreases obesity and fat cells
• Improve brain function
• Improves memory
• Alleviates depression
• Helps with male erections
• Protects the prostate against cancer
If you are past the age of 30 and feel your body is out of balance, you may be suffering from low T, Regenx Medical Institute offers a free consultation and extensive medical exam to determine if hormone treatment may be right for you.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirm that more than 72 million American adults are obese which increases individual medical costs by as much as $1,429 annually.
It is now believed that, as many as 33% of all male and female adults are obese in the United States and these figures are moving upwards. This is costing the nation more than $147 billion annually.
But, the costs are not just financial; they are dangerous to your health. For this reason obesity is labeled a disease and can have the following adverse symptoms:
• Heart Disease
• Stroke
• Diabetes
• Some Types of Cancer
• Sleep Apnea
• Breathing problems
• High blood pressure
• Affect healthy pregnancies
• Pancreatitis
• Arthritis
• Inflamed veins
• Gout
A number of factors are contributing towards this epidemic, including:
• Lack of exercise
• Limited access to healthy stores
• An addiction to junk food
• Increased sugar in our diets
• A community that does not encourage healthy living
States such as Texas, Florida and New York feature, on average, a 25% level of obesity. Other States like Louisiana may be as high as 30-40%.
For this reason a number of hormone treatment strategies have been researched to help fight fat and stimulate weight loss.
Regenx Medical Institute offers bioidentical hormone strategies to combat the growing obesity issue, which is often linked to aging.
After an extensive medical exam, patients may be administered HGH or Testosterone to help build muscle and stimulate weight loss.
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is also an important tool being used to battle obesity, largely because there is anecdotal evidence that it produces results very quickly, sometimes in as little as 30 days.
The treatment first came to the US in 1954 when endocrinologist A.T.W. Simeons published findings that suggested that when an obese subject was subjected to a 500 calorie per day diet combined with HCG injections, a patient could lose up to 1 pound of fat per day.
The general benefits of weight loss hormones include:
• Lose weight quickly
• Not feeling weak anymore
• Not be hungry (curbs appetite)
• Lose fat from those parts of the body where it tends to remain longest during normal dieting (i.e. stomach, hips, thighs, upper arms)
However, the HCG diet has become controversial with a number of agencies declaring it ineffective and sometimes dangerous when pursuing rapid weight loss. Some have called it a reckless, starvation diet, but patients who have undergone HCG weight loss steadfastly support it’s status as a “wonder weight loss drug.’’
HCG can be administered in the form of:
• HCG creams
• HCG pills (orally)
• HCG injections
Further media controversy has surfaced around HCG because of illegal sales over the Internet and the failure to be administered to patients as part of a physician-guided program.
Regenx Medical Institute may recommend HCG after an extensive patient medical evaluation at one of our national clinics. Generally, it will be part of a holistic program that also factors in HGH and Testosterone, two critical tools in any HRT program.
Testosterone or HGH may be a complementary hormone used in the treatment program based on the health, genetics and general physical condition of the patient. Along with diet, exercise and other tools, the goal of our program is to build muscle and fight fat. A 1990 study by the New England Journal Of Medicine showed injections of HGH, for instance, resulted in a 8.8% gain in muscle mass and a 14% loss in body fat without any change in diet or exercise.
70% of women undergoing menopause will experience hot flashes according to the Harvard Medical School. While this is the most symbolic feature of a female hormone imbalance other symptoms may arise including vaginal dryness, lower sex drive and a general feeling of fatigue.
Hot flashes are distinguished by a quick, warm flushing sensation that is intensified in the head and trunk regions of the body. Often, this occurs in tandem with sweating and a reddening of the skin, which can escalate into sweating. Women will experience this sensation in differing degrees.
As women age they may also face other challenges relating to the degeneration of the body including vaginal dryness, burning or even osteoporosis. These can occur during or after menopause and may often contribute towards mood swings or a feeling of not being in control.
The above illustrates why Hormone Replacement Therapy has become such a powerful tool in helping correct hormonal imbalance in women. Under a medically guided program HRT, including Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone and HGH may be used to treat these symptomatic conditions after undergoing an extensive medical exam.
However, the use of HRT has attracted some controversy, particular concerns that treatment may contribute to certain forms of cancer if not carefully administered and used under medically supervised program. This concern was elevated around 2001 when the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) published findings that suggested, for instance, that combined Estrogen and Progesterone treatment elevated the risk of heart attack and breast cancer.
Up until 2001, Hormone Treatment has been extremely popular and highly recommended in medical circles. Post-2001, there was a rapid decline in the use or HRT to treat age-related symptoms associated with both Menopause and post-menopause. Thus, naturally many women are reluctant to explore HRT treatment that may positively impact the quality of their life.
However, in the past several years new research indicates that HRT does indeed offer valuable help in combating hormonal imbalances, provided it is done carefully under a doctor-monitored program.
“Despite this history of dashed expectations, it’s too early to close the book on HT,” said the Harvard Medical School.
“In particular, there’s still little evidence that short-term use for symptom relief does any harm. And some experts believe that it may help protect younger women against heart disease.”
The medical community who acknowledge it can be beneficial when treating night sweats, hot flashes and vaginal dryness are thus reappraising hormone Replacement Therapies. Just like men, women may also suffer from Low Testosterone or Low T that plays a role in healthy libido and muscle development. Both these areas decline as we age.
Regenx Medical Institute offers a highly specialized Hormone Therapy program that seeks to correct hormonal defects in the body and improve the quality of your life. If you lack energy, feel constantly fatigued or simply wish to boost your sex drive we may be able to help. You will undergo an extensive medical exam by an accredited onsite doctor, to determine the best path forward using the latest tools in hormone replacement therapies.
Boost adrenal & thyroid gland functioning with nutraceuticals.
Mental clarity and laser-like focus may be stimulated through a doctor-supervised HRT program that offers specialized neutraceutical treatment. Insomnia and other sleep issues are also targeted as part of vitamin and intracellular antioxidant programs.
In women, dryness, often a symptom of issues with the adrenal gland or thyroid, may be lessened through the use of biodidentical hormones and neutraceutical treatment.
Neutraceutical supplementation focuses on vitamin and intracellular antioxidant levels to help rebalance hormones found in the human body. These hormones typically decline as you age leading to a number of age-related side affects.

HRT treatment using blended approaches to Neutraceutical agents can assist with combating weight gain, irritability, abnormal menstrual cycles and further assist with the long-term goal of negating muscle loss as men and women age.
Boost your body with Testosterone
Women, just like men, suffer from lower Testosterone levels as they age. We know the affect this can have on your life including weight gain, fatigue, insomnia or disruption of your regular menstrual cycle.
According to the National Institutes of Health, a healthy young woman should produce about 300 microg of testosterone daily.
The ovaries produce half of this and the rest originates from the adrenal glands. Testosterone has many functions, some of which include influencing the various stages of puberty and sexual function.
Other areas are affected too, such as bone density, muscle mass, mood and energy reserves.
Low T or Testosterone deficiency is linked to a number of conditions including:
• Oophorectomy,
• Adrenalectomy
• Adrenal disease
• Pituitary disease,
• HIV infection
• Premature ovarian failure
• Turner’s syndrome, and the use of high-dose corticosteroids and some estrogen preparations
However, it is generally accepted that most of the time aging plays a significant role along with Menopause in contributing to the decline of Testosterone.
Testosterone deficiencies and its broader condition Female Androgen Deficiency (FADS) are under constant research by The Regenx Medical Institute and government agencies such as the NIH.
A medically supervised HRT program may be just what you need to fight off fatigue, weight gain and general swelling on parts of your body. A number of women also inquire about using hormones to assist with pregnancy as they age. These questions can only be answered after an extensive medical exam to determine if you are a suitable candidate for Testosterone Hormone Therapies.
Testosterone treatment can offer these benefits:
• Decrease in heart attacks
• Lower inflammation
• Lowers cholesterol
• Lowers vascular disease and death
• Decrease in premature coronary artery disease
• Increases cardiac output, allowing more air and oxygen intake. This means you can breathe like a 20-year-old and display greater stamina!
• Deters metabolic syndrome
• Decreases obesity and fat cells
• Improve brain function
• Improves memory
• Alleviates depression
Further, other conditions may be tackled under our physician-monitored program including Insomnia and related sleep issues. Our program helps identify if you have a current hormone imbalance that can be rectified with HRT including key questions as to whether we can use natural hormones (called bioidenticals) to re-establish normal menstrual cycles.
Generally, as a first step we suggest you immediately take our Hormone Test Online that can quickly offer some insight into your immediate hormonal condition.
We are here to help and look forward to helping you regenerate your body with new techniques, tools and research in the area of Hormone Replacement Therapy.
The aging process may manifest itself in the form of weight gain (or obesity), muscle loss, hot flashes, wrinkles, balding, lower energy, depression, and a lower libido.
Many patients may report a general sense of ‘fogginess’, dry skin, and perhaps a continual state of exhaustion or fatigue. They confirm these symptoms have been present in their bodies for years — maybe even as long as a decade in some cases!
While there are no miracle drugs or cures that can turn back the clocks of time, there are scientific and medical methods that can be used to help you control the aging process.
We call this Hormone Replacement Therapy or HRT.
However, not all HRT programs are created equal. Only a medically supervised HRT program based on the personalized needs of each patient should be considered.
The Art of Age Management
At Regenx® Medical Institute we offer this and much more. Each patient receives a personalized regime that’s based on a patient’s unique needs. It’s an extensive, in-depth program that combines the power of HRT medicine with a customized approach to evaluating and treating the human body.
Our goal is to offer you a sustainable path to fighting the ravages of age and restoring your health. Once you complete our HRT program you will feel energized, rejuvenated and experience the benefits of hormone-fueled longevity.
Do you remember what your body felt like at 20? Our aim is to give you back that feeling.
Our team will discuss your goals, compile your medical history, conduct physicals, and test your blood before offering a diagnosis. Our Life coaches will work with you to ensure any benefits are sustainable and life-long.
At our Hormone Clinic we will evaluate and treat Menopause (women), Andropause (men), thyroid disorders, adrenal fatigue/stress, and other hormone imbalances by the administration of Hormone Replacement Therapy and/or nutritional supplements.
These nutraceuticals may include vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants designed to alter hormone levels in the human body.
We may suggest using biodenticals, or synthesized hormones to bring your body back into balance. The interest in natural approaches to HRT has spurred interested in biodentical hormones which display an identical molecular structure to hormones found in the human body. They are safe and effective when based on individual patient evaluations and blood work.
The ultimate goal of our highly specialized physician-guided HRT program is to raise the levels of hormones until your body is brought back into balance and you experience an improved quality of life.
Some patients report exceptional benefits within 2 months of undertaking our HRT program, including:
Less wrinkles on face (75.5%)
Less body fat (48%)
Thicker head hair (28%)
Improved emotional state (71.4%)
Increased energy (86.8%)
Increase in lean body fat (8.8%) after six months.
Improved resistance to stress (83.7%)
Better (thicker) skin (34.5%)
Significantly decreased Anxiety (calmer) (73.5%)
Depression improved or eliminated (82.7%)
Additional benefits may include:
Reversal of balding with re-growth of hair
Improved cholesterol profile
Decreased blood pressure Improved memory
Decreased heart disease and arthrosclerosis-Improved sleep
In reality, the benefits far exceed the list provided above. They are dramatic and life changing and may become apparent within 60 days of beginning our hormone-balancing treatment.
It is important to note that Regenx® Medical Institute only uses FDA approvedproducts and will only administer hormone replacement therapies to those who have actual hormonal deficiencies with the stated goal of bringing the body back into balance.
We do not take any short cuts and neither should you. Your health literally depends on it.
A complete physical and blood panel can only determine deficiencies. We cannot assist those who are looking to enhance body building performance or athletic ability. But, we can help those who seek long-term results in losing weight, gaining muscle, longevity and restoring an active sex life.
This approach separates us from fly-by-night HRT programs that are not medically supervised and are simply designed to administer hormones without fully evaluating and diagnosing each patient before proceeding in HRT. This is dangerous and unethical.
Once you schedule an appointment at our state-of-the-art facility you will begin a high-quality individualized program that’s discrete, safe and life changing. Your initial consultation will include the following:
A Detailed Blood Panel
Complete Physical
Full Medical History Profile
Ready to Schedule an Appointment? Call us at +1 888 973 4369
The above will be the basis for administering a successful HRT program that will bring your body and hormones back into balance.
We take your health seriously and want the results to be sustainable and life-long. You should, too.
Signs of Aging in Men
According to the Harvard Medical School, a growing number of men in the United States are taking testosterone to reverse the decline of the hormone, or so-called Andropause, the male counterpart to female Menopause, as they age.
Generally, men hit their physical peak at the age of 17. By the time they pass the age of 30 their Testosterone levels may be 50% lower.
Testosterone and other related hormones such as Hormone Growth Hormone, play an important role in maintaining muscle mass, sex drive, fat levels, sperm count, red blood cell production and bone strength. These are often referred to as “anti-aging” HRT tools however Regenx® Medical Institute prefers the term “age management”.
Typical signs of aging may include:
• Low Libido
• Prostrate enlargement
• Testicular atrophy
• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Hypertension
• Extreme depression
• Lack of energy
As men age, these areas may be affected by low levels of Testosterone. Doctors in the United States sometimes treat this condition with synthetic testosterone or what they call bioidentical hormones.
Medical doctors often refer to a specific condition in men called Hypogonadism, which signals that there may be testosterone deficiencies in the testes or pituitary gland, which is controlled by centers in the brain. The brain secretes a signaling hormone to the male testes ordering it to “get ready for action”.
Low Testosterone or “Low T” thus affects sexual interest and motivation. During sexual activity, testosterone levels increase. However, long periods of celibacy may reduce hormone levels. In some cases, men with low hormone counts may still be able to have erections.
Many patients who undergo a medically supervised hormone treatment program report that the quality of their erections improve after they begin HRT treatment, although results will differ depending on the unique situation of each patient.
But, its not only sexual arousal, which is affected by the aging process — so too are other areas including muscle mass. This may manifest itself in flabby muscles or even worse, obesity. This in turn may also contribute towards high blood pressure and diabetes, both serious medical conditions. Human Growth Hormone (HGH) may be a valuable tool in helping build muscle mass. A medical doctor attached to an accredited HRT clinic will assess each patient thoroughly to determine if he or she qualifies for HGH treatment to slow down the aging process.
There are also a number of research articles which suggest that testosterone and HGH treatment can influence body composition and make a man produce leaner muscle mass. It may also produce stronger bone density.
The general result of hormone therapy will be a softening in the aging process and the propensity to craft a leaner, more muscular body even if you are beyond 40 years of age.
However, results are dependent on using a recognized medical institute or clinic to obtain treatment. A physician guided HRT program ensures the program is customized towards each individual male patient and does not jeopardize the long-term health of the patient.
Signs of Aging in Women
Women experience a much more pronounced loss of hormones than men during the aging process. It reaches its zenith with menopause, which is often the most visible sign of getting old.
These reflect subtle changes in the female reproductive organs, which affect the level of hormones and further influence her psychological state.
Menopause is a normal part of the aging process and reflects changes in the relationship between ovarian hormones and those produced by the brain’s pituitary gland.
Nearly 10% of women may experience menopause before the age of 40.
These are often preceded by irregular menstrual cycles. However, typically menopause begins at the age of 50 for the majority of women.
This aging process may result in:
• Reproductive capacity may be diminished or lost
• A lower libido
• Hot Flashes
• Mood disturbances or depression
• Insomnia and related sleep disorders
• Osteoporosis may also be a concern
• Lack of vitality
• Skin wrinkling
• Irregular periods
Hot flashes and vaginal dryness are two common symptoms associated with menopause. Hot flashes may last as long as three years for some women and for others, indefinitely.
According to the Harvard Medical School, the most visible signs of a hot flash (including sweating, pink, or reddened skin) indicate that estrogen levels are dropping in the body.
In these situations, hormone therapy may prove effective in treating hot flashes. These are usually prescribed in low dosages and contribute towards slowing down the aging process.
Estrogen treatment may also be affective in treating vaginal dryness, which can negatively affect sexual intercourse. Estrogen, in the forms of creams, rings and tablets are applied to the affected area to help treat this condition.
Diminished estrogen may also affect sex drive since there is now reduced blood flow to the genitals. Body image and mood swings are often negatively impacted by this development.
The Harvard Medical School confirms that intermittent doses of progestogen (a version of progesterone, the hormone that causes the uterine lining to slough) may be helpful for women who are having occasional bleeding and who are not ovulating.
Both testosterone and estrogen hormone treatment may also assist in boosting the female libido, which are affected past the age of 35.
“Sex drive may decline at midlife for a variety of reasons. Diminished estrogen or age-related changes in circulation may reduce blood flow to the genitals and cause a decrease in sensation. Vaginal dryness or thinning can make intercourse painful” said The Harvard Medical School.
Thus, hormone replacement therapies, including estrogen replacement in the form of pills, or patches, may help prevent or reduce the negative symptoms stemming from menopause. These include hot flashes, vaginal dryness, bleeding, and a lower female libido.
There is also evidence it may reduce the risk of complications such as osteoporosis.
However, all of the positive benefits of hormone treatment mentioned above can only come about by signing with up a medically supervised program.
Over the last few decades the United States’ views on aging has changed dramatically. Part of the reason for this is because people are now living longer.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) reports that the average life expectancy for an adult has increased by 6-8 years since it began monitoring these trends in 1970. Human beings in 1970 were expected to live until the age of 70. In 2011 it’s now 76. By the year 2030 it ‘s expected that over 10 million people could live to the age of 85 or older.
But, while people are living longer, they are not always living better. Reaching old age in good shape is a formidable challenge influenced by a number of physical, physiological, mental and environmental factors.
Regenx Medical Institute and other governmental bodies such as the NIA above, are constantly investigating new ways to support healthy aging and prevent or delay the onset of diseases, which may adversely affect us as we pass the age of 30.
These include understanding both the risks and benefits of hormone treatment, diet, exercise, antioxidants, neutriceuticals, and other so-called anti-aging tools.
Customized calorie restrictions and the use of antioxidants may help slow down the aging process by adding them to your daily diet.
However, it’s in the area of Hormone Replacement Therapies, that some of the most critical and advanced steps have been researched and implemented to manage the aging process.
“We cannot survive without hormones,” said the NIA. They act as chemical messengers helping to balance the human body. Areas such as the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenals, ovaries and testes release a number of crucial hormones that regulate, stimulate and control numerous biological functions for both men and women.
Generally, key hormones including Human Growth Hormone.(HGH), Testosterone, Estrogen and Progesterone decline rapidly as we pass the age of 30. In certain instances, careful medical administration of these hormones may help offset the affects of aging.
The “fountain of youth” or the “anti-aging miracle” are now common goals for a number of HRT programs across the United States, often attracting negative attention. There is some controversy over the use of HRT to combat aging, with some research indicating negative side affects.
This controversy is usually directed at programs that are NOT medically supervised by onsite Doctors. Generally, bodies such as the NIA and FDA agree that customized, medically guided Hormone Therapy programs may offer a number of benefits to aging patients. But, the keyword here is “doctor supervised”.
Too often, hormone-like products sold over the counter without prescriptions — that are not FDA-approved — drive management strategies. You are thus buying an unknown drug, which may have serious consequences to your health.
Conversely, medical doctors attached to HRT clinic will first examine you before administering hormone treatment, such as HGH. This is a safe, scientific and highly rewarding path to managing the aging process.
Current ongoing research is being accumulated to understand how, for instance, HGH may be used to increase muscle mass. But, careful attention needs to be paid towards the risks, too, including cancer and diabetes.
Testosterone is another area drawing interest in hormone treatment strategies. It not only helps with sex drive but regulates bone mass, distribution of body fat and can also influence muscle mass and strength. It is an important hormone in the production of sperm and red blood cells. And, it’s important for both men and women, since female bodies also produce small amounts of testosterone.
For men with low testosterone or “Low T”, customized HRT treatment may be highly beneficial. It can help older men build stronger muscles and bones. It can also boost sex drive and libido.
Meanwhile, new research indicates that customized Estrogen and related hormone treatments may help women as they age. It can help boost bone strength and may in certain instances assist preventing heart disease.
“For more than 60 years, millions of women have used drugs containing estrogen to relieve their menopausal symptoms, especially hot flashes and vaginal dryness. Some women may also be prescribed estrogen drugs to prevent or treat osteoporosis—loss of bone strength—that often happens after menopause,” said the NIA.
It is worth pointing out that the popularity of HRT treatment in women was undercut by a WHI study in 2002, which indicated that using Estrogen and progestin, may have harmful affects on the body including: Heart disease, stroke, blood clots, and breast cancer.
However, according to the NIA, since 2007 new counter-research has sparked a renewed interest in HRT programs concluding that younger women, ages 50 to 59 who used estrogen alone, had significantly less calcified plaque in their coronary arteries than women not using estrogen.
In conclusion, scientific evidence confirms that hormones in men and women drop as we age. This contributes towards the symptoms of aging including lower libido, lower muscle mass and a number of other age-related conditions. The research indicates there are ways to manage the aging process. While the anti-aging miracle may be a mirage, the goal of slowing down the aging process is real and obtainable, for both men and women.
Customized hormone replacement therapies can help in this endeavor. Supervised by medical doctors, personalized HRT treatment can help offset the signs of aging and help you lead a balanced, healthy, fun life.
Aging is inevitable but the process of how we age is optional and can be influenced by Hormone Therapy Treatment.
By Restoring hormone levels we can regain the qualities of youth including vitality and longevity.
One of the most controversial and documented substances used in combating aging is Human Growth Hormone. Certain studies (and many HRT clinics) report the benefits of HGH in deterring and reversing the aging process. However, it is critical to point out that a Hormone doctor who specializes in the administration of HGH bases these results on an extensive onsite medical evaluation.
If this process is not followed the patient is put at risk and there may be serious side affects.
While HGH is one of the most promising new hormones in battling the side affects of aging in both men and women, testosterone and estrogen also help battle hormone deficiencies and age-related symptoms.
If a male suffers from low testosterone or “Low T” the results may be obesity, irritability, fatigue, low libido and erectile dysfunction. In women, decreased estrogen and progesterone may contribute towards weight gain, hot flashes, irritability, mood swings, and other symptoms of PMS.
Regenx Medical Institute specializes in offering a medically guided plan to replacing these lost hormones with what we call bioidentical alternatives. These natural hormone replacements match the molecular makeup of hormones in your body and will help improve your life and reduce the unwanted signs of aging.
This age management process is medically supervised, goal-orientated and effective in helping you feel young again.
A physician supervised hormone replacement program offers these specific benefits:
Improve sexual libido
Increase muscle mass while reducing body fat
Look and feel years younger
Enhance the immune system
Extended life
Improve skin tone and texture
Regenx Medical Institute services include:
Extensive evaluation of hormone levels (including Estrogen, Progesterone and Testosterone with treatment for optimization of levels.)
Evaluation of Vitamin and intracellular antioxidant levels.
And, a complete treatment program with Neutraceuticals for individual optimization of levels.
If you are past the age of 30, and wish to regain the vitality of when you were aged 20, then our hormone program can help you reach this goal.
Hormones are naturally occurring substances in your body designed to perform specific tasks to regulate certain body functions.
Young males, for instance, have an abundance of Testosterone, which manifests itself in the form of male-gender qualities including muscular strength, bone density, sexual stamina and the all the characteristics of an “alpha-male”.
Meanwhile, Estrogen in females helps promote regular metabolism, healthy skin, and healthy blood vessels and regulates fluid balance.
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) is perhaps less known by most people in offsetting the signs of aging. This hormone gets secreted in less and less quantities as you pass the age of 35 – in both men and women! This hormone can play a significant role in increasing libido, muscle mass and energy in males and females.
HGH therapy suggests the following specific benefits:
Improves immune function
Improve quality of life
Improve cognitive function
Improves action of testosterone
Improves brain function
Reverses osteoporosis
Decreases cardiac disease
Improves heart function
Improves body composition
Further, despite what you may read in articles found online, there is no evidence that HGH increases the risk of Cancer according to a report in the New England Journal of Medicine, 1999.
Medical literature suggests the following specific Testosterone benefits:
Decrease in heart attacks
Lower inflammation
Lowers cholesterol
Lowers vascular disease and death
Decrease in premature coronary artery disease
Increases cardiac output allowing more air and oxygen intake. This means you can breath like a 20 year old and display greater stamina!
Deters metabolic syndrome
Decreases obesity and fat cells
Improve brain function
Improves memory
Alleviates depression
Helps with male erections
Protects the prostate against cancer

Once you begin a relationship with our team of specialists, you will be given a recommendation as to how we can treat any of your age-related symptoms…
These symptoms may include low sex drive, wrinkles, low muscle mass, depression, mood swings and loss of energy.
The forms of treatment we offer include creams, prescription injections, bio identical human growth hormone, and oral sprays. Depending on your age, type of medical history, blood panel and a general life assessment you will be treated with a range of hormones designed to bring your body back into balance.
A 2006 Shores study concluded that Low testosterone levels were associated with increased mortality in male veterans. Thus, hormones may not only help you live better, they may help you live longer.
It is critical you understand the benefits of hormone treatment and how they can help you achieve long-term results in managing the aging process.
Patients report these benefits after undergoing our program:
Memory Benefits
Through the administration of certain hormones, including HGH, testosterone, estrogen and progesterone we can help you repair and improve memory functions. Studies show that damaged brain cells can be rejuvenated and repaired. Hormones, including HGH, stimulate essential proteins needed in order to sustain both short-term and long-term energy.
Skin benefits
Modern American society is obsessed with beauty. Looking younger may affect job prospects, attracting a suitable mate or your self esteem. Skin quality is a major component of looking good and feeling young. Hormone treatment studies conducted by bodies such as the National Institute for Health confirm smoother skin and a reduction in wrinkles. Skin became thicker and more impervious to cuts and abrasions. In many cases, the healing processes went faster. There are even some studies, which suggest that patients with skin burns may recover more quickly when treated with hormones such as HGH.
Improved Sexual Function
Many temporary solutions to a low libido or erectile dysfunction are presented to us in a daily dose over Television, Radio and Print ads. These may include prescriptions, natural products and any number of other “temporary” solutions. However, in many instances a low sex drive may be traced back to lost hormones, which impact sexual arousal and performance. The ability to achieve and maintain an erection may be a direct result of Low Testosterone or low counts of HGH. Lower hormones may influence semen production and fertility in males. In females the propensity to produce lubricants and increase orgasm frequency may be impacted. A medically supervised HRT program can help bring the body back into balance and restore sexual function abilities to the same levels you experienced at the age of 20.
Sleep Benefits
The ability to produce Rapid Eye Movement (REM) through sleep helps influence how rested you feel after waking up. The stressful demands of your job, family life or other environmental factors may be affecting your sleep and contributing towards Insomnia. This can have a detrimental affect on your life.
All of us need sleep in different measures depending on our age, genetics or other factors. Studies suggest that hormone treatment can help stimulate REM, which benefits you both physically and mentally. If you desire to wake up in a rested, energetic state a medically supervised hormone treatment program may be just what the doctor ordered!
Muscle Mass Benefits
A study conducted by the National Institute of Health (NIH) reported that hormone replacement substantially increased lean body mass and decreased fat mass in both sexes. When combined with testosterone, growth hormone elevated the cardiovascular endurance in older men. However, these benefits were limited to carefully controlled and monitored clinical trials. It concluded that only a medically supervised program customized towards the unique characteristics of each male or female could be successful in promoting muscle mass.
The administration of testosterone, estrogen and HGH may be used in differing amounts to aid muscle development, but it will depend on your age, genetics, blood panel work and a number of other factors that are examined during our initial medical exam.
We age because we lose the concentration, volume, and balance of our hormones. Restoration of our hormones is the portal to arresting and reversing the aging process.
