Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy. Complete Reference.
A comprehensive clinical overview of all bio-identical hormones available at Iuventus Medical Center. Every protocol begins with comprehensive lab testing and is individually dosed based on your results — not a standard prescription.
Hormonal imbalance isn't a single symptom. It's a pattern.
The body's hormonal system is interconnected — and symptoms of imbalance often span multiple hormones simultaneously. A full panel is the only way to identify which specific deficiencies are driving your experience.
Persistent exhaustion that doesn't respond to rest — often driven by DHEA-S decline, thyroid underfunction, or testosterone deficiency. These are measurable, correctable hormonal states, not inevitable aging.
Difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, or unrefreshing sleep. Melatonin dysregulation is a primary driver — and medical-grade melatonin at precise physiological doses corrects circadian rhythm without suppressing natural receptor sensitivity.
Irritability, low mood, heightened stress response, or emotional flatness. Multiple hormones modulate mood — oxytocin reduces cortisol, progesterone activates GABA receptors, DHEA-S supports dopamine. A complete panel identifies which lever to address.
Loss of interest in sex or difficulty achieving arousal in both men and women. Testosterone — at appropriate doses for each sex — addresses androgen-driven libido decline. Oxytocin supports intimacy and response through a separate neurological mechanism.
Difficulty concentrating, word-finding problems, or mental slowness. Thyroid hormone, DHEA-S, and testosterone all play roles in cognitive function. Suboptimal levels in any of these correlate with measurable cognitive decline.
Weight gain despite normal eating, or difficulty losing weight despite effort. Thyroid dysfunction and DHEA-S decline both affect metabolic rate and body composition — and are commonly overlooked in standard workups.
The right panel changes everything.
Most patients who come to us have seen their standard TSH or testosterone checked — and been told it's 'normal.' We test the complete hormonal picture because partial information leads to partial answers. A full panel at IUVENTUS gives you the complete picture in 24–48 hours.
Hormones that are identical to what your body makes. Nothing synthetic. Nothing approximated.
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy uses hormones that are molecularly identical — same structure, same receptor binding, same physiological action — to the hormones your body produces endogenously. This is a meaningful distinction from synthetic hormone formulations, which use structurally modified molecules that bind to hormone receptors differently and produce different — and sometimes less favorable — downstream effects.
BHRT at Iuventus is not off-the-shelf. Every protocol is designed based on comprehensive laboratory testing and individually dosed to bring your specific hormone levels into an optimal therapeutic range. The goal is not to 'normalize' your labs — it's to find the level at which your symptoms resolve and you feel well.
Bio-identical hormones are available in multiple delivery formats — oral, transdermal (cream, patch, gel), sublingual, pellet, and injectable. Delivery format affects absorption kinetics and peak levels; your physician will recommend the format best suited to your protocol, lifestyle, and goals.
Estradiol (E2), progesterone, FSH, LH, SHBG, total and free testosterone, DHEA-S, cortisol (morning), TSH, Free T3, Free T4, IGF-1 (if growth hormone is suspected), CBC, comprehensive metabolic panel, and lipid panel. This gives us a complete hormonal and metabolic picture before prescribing anything.
All BHRT hormones. All individually dosed.
The three hormones shown above are those specific to the BHRT reference page. For Estrogen, Progesterone, and Thyroid see the Menopause & Women's Health page. For Testosterone see Men's Vitality. All protocols begin with a full lab panel.

Dehydroepiandrosterone is an adrenal hormone that serves as a precursor to testosterone and estrogen. Its levels peak in the mid-20s and decline by 80–90% by age 70. DHEA supplementation supports hormonal cascade production, adrenal function, bone density, mood, and immune competence.
Medical-grade melatonin at precise physiological doses for circadian rhythm regulation, sleep quality, and as a potent antioxidant with anti-aging properties. Unlike OTC supplements — commonly overdosed at 5–10mg — we prescribe at doses that restore natural function without impairing receptor sensitivity.
The 'bonding hormone' — oxytocin plays roles beyond social bonding: it reduces cortisol, lowers anxiety, supports pain threshold, promotes tissue healing, and has been associated with improved sexual response in both men and women. Used as an adjunct in comprehensive wellness protocols.

All protocols require a comprehensive lab panel before prescribing. Delivery format and dosing are individualized based on your specific results.

BHRT is not a standard prescription. It's precision medicine.
Long-term safety depends on the specific hormone, dose, delivery method, and your individual health profile. Current evidence supports the long-term use of properly monitored bio-identical hormone therapy for most patients. We conduct regular lab monitoring, clinical assessments, and risk-benefit reviews at every stage of treatment.
From your labs to your protocol.
We review your symptoms, health history, previous lab work, and goals. You describe what you're experiencing — we identify which hormonal systems to investigate.
Full panel: estradiol, progesterone, FSH, LH, SHBG, total and free testosterone, DHEA-S, cortisol, TSH, Free T3, Free T4, IGF-1, CBC, metabolic panel, and lipid panel. Results in 24–48 hours.
Your physician designs a hormone combination dosed to your specific lab results and symptoms. Delivery format selected based on your lifestyle, absorption preference, and clinical goals.
Follow-up labs at 6–8 weeks. Protocol adjustments based on your response — both your symptoms and your numbers. Ongoing quarterly monitoring thereafter.
Medicine that
gets you.
Over 15 years of bio-identical hormone therapy in Las Vegas — with individual dosing, comprehensive panels, and physician oversight at every stage.
Full panel — not partial
We test 15+ hormonal and metabolic markers before prescribing anything. Partial information leads to partial — and often incorrect — conclusions.
Bio-identical only
Molecularly identical to what your body produces — for better receptor binding, more predictable effects, and fewer side effects than synthetic alternatives.
Individualized dosing
No standard doses. Your protocol is built around your specific lab values and symptom response — and adjusted as you respond.
Quarterly monitoring
Regular labs and physician review throughout your treatment. We optimize your protocol as your hormonal status evolves — because hormones are not static.
Precision medicine.
Real results.
Everything you
want to know.
