Comprehensive diagnosis is the first step to successful treatment. We thoroughly assess patients hormone levels using state-of-the-art testing methods.
Blood tests check circulating hormone levels in the body. We test key hormones including:
Blood tests require specialized handling to prevent sample deterioration. Our Revival Medical Clinic follows strict protocols to ensure accurate results.
Saliva tests also measure hormone levels non-invasively. They assess "free" or active hormones available for use by cells and tissues. Saliva tests can provide unique insights alongside blood testing for comprehensive diagnosis.
We also thoroughly assess patient symptoms and medical history. Hormone issues often correspond to clusters of physical, mental and sexual symptoms.
Tracking symptoms over time is crucial to judge treatment effectiveness. We monitor energy, sleep, weight, libido and other measures before and during therapy.
Robust testing provides the data needed to develop customized treatment plans. We craft plans with bioidentical hormones tailored to your unique needs.
Bioidentical hormones have a molecular structure identical to those produced naturally in the body. They are meticulously formulated to match endogenous human hormones.
Treatment options include:
We choose the right bioidentical hormones to specifically target your imbalance and symptoms. Combination therapy using multiple hormones is common for optimal restoration.
Bioidentical hormones are carefully administered using different methods:
We determine the best method for your body and lifestyle needs. Most patients use a combination for optimal stability.

Most patients notice significant improvements in energy, sleep, sexual function within 1-2 weeks. Full benefits generally manifest over 3-6 months. We adjust dosages and medications accordingly until hormone levels and symptoms normalize.
