- Patches
- Topical gels or creams
- Oral medications
- Injections
- Vaginal preparations
- Pellets when offered and medically appropriate
Not every treatment method is appropriate for every patient, and not every delivery method may be available at Detoxity.
Follow-Up & Monitoring
Hormone therapy requires ongoing medical follow-up. Monitoring may include:
- Symptom review
- Medication response
- Side-effect screening
- Blood-pressure monitoring
- Repeat laboratory testing
- Dose adjustments
- Medication refills when appropriate
- Review of changing health risks
Follow-up frequency depends on your medication, laboratory findings, response to treatment, and physician recommendations.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Questions about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) are common. Your physician can explain the differences among FDA-approved hormone medications and compounded hormone preparations.
What Does “Bioidentical Hormone” Mean?
The term bioidentical hormone describes a hormone with the same molecular structure as a hormone produced by the human body.
Some FDA-approved estradiol and progesterone medications are bioidentical. Compounded hormone preparations are different from FDA-approved products and are not individually reviewed or approved by FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality. FDA has not found evidence that compounded bioidentical hormones are automatically safer or more effective than FDA-approved hormone therapies.
At Detoxity, treatment recommendations are based on medical appropriateness, available evidence, patient needs, and physician judgment.
Potential Benefits, Risks & Safety
Hormone replacement therapy can provide meaningful symptom relief for appropriately selected patients, but treatment is not risk-free. Benefits and risks vary according to the hormone, dose, delivery method, age, medical history, treatment duration, and other individual factors.
Hormone Therapy Benefits, Risks & Safety
Your physician will discuss potential benefits, limitations, side effects, and risks relevant to the specific therapy being considered.
Medical history that may affect treatment decisions can include:
- Certain hormone-sensitive cancers
- Unexplained vaginal bleeding
- Previous blood clots or clotting disorders
- Previous stroke or heart attack
- Significant liver disease
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Certain prostate conditions
- Abnormally elevated blood counts
- Untreated or unstable medical conditions
- Other risks identified during evaluation
This is not a complete contraindication list. Final eligibility is determined by the physician.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hormone Replacement Therapy
How do I know whether my hormones are imbalanced?
Symptoms alone cannot determine whether a hormone disorder is present. A physician evaluation and appropriate laboratory testing can help identify hormonal and non-hormonal causes of your symptoms.
Do I need laboratory testing before receiving hormone therapy?
Laboratory testing is commonly part of a hormone evaluation. The exact tests required depend on your symptoms, medical history, sex, age, and proposed treatment.
Is hormone replacement therapy available for both women and men?
Yes. Detoxity provides hormone evaluations for women and men. Treatment recommendations depend on the individual’s diagnosis, symptoms, laboratory findings, and medical history.
Is hormone therapy only for menopause?
No. Hormone evaluations can address several medical concerns. Menopausal hormone therapy is one type of hormone treatment, while appropriate men may be evaluated for testosterone deficiency and other hormone-related concerns.
Do you offer testosterone replacement therapy?
Detoxity provides physician evaluation for possible testosterone deficiency. Testosterone replacement therapy may be considered only when clinically appropriate after evaluation and appropriate laboratory confirmation.
Do you offer bioidentical hormone therapy?
Your physician can discuss FDA-approved bioidentical hormone medications and, when relevant, compounded preparations. Treatment recommendations are based on medical appropriateness rather than marketing terminology.
Do you offer hormone pellets?
Pellet therapy may be discussed if it is available and clinically appropriate. Not every hormone delivery method is suitable for every patient.
Will I need ongoing treatment and monitoring?
Hormone therapy generally requires ongoing medical follow-up, which may include symptom review, laboratory monitoring, medication adjustments, and evaluation of changing health risks.
More Hormone Therapy Questions
How quickly will I notice results?
Response time varies depending on the condition being treated, medication prescribed, dose, and individual response.
Can hormone therapy help with weight loss?
Hormone therapy should not be presented as a primary weight-loss treatment. If body weight or metabolic health is a concern, your physician can determine whether a separate medical weight-management evaluation is appropriate.
Can I transfer hormone care from another clinic?
Yes, patients may bring recent medical records, laboratory results, and current treatment information for physician review. Continued treatment is subject to Detoxity’s medical evaluation and prescribing requirements.
Does insurance cover hormone therapy?
Coverage varies by insurance plan, medication, laboratory testing, and service. Please contact our team to confirm current payment and insurance policies.
