Hormones play a powerful role in regulating energy, mood, sleep, metabolism, and overall well-being. When levels start to change, even subtle imbalances can influence how you think, feel, and function day to day.
In her aesthetics and wellness practice in Houston, caring board-certified OB/GYN Dr. Sharon Smith draws upon her extensive medical background along with a whole-person approach to help patients understand their symptoms and restore balance through personalized bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
Drawing upon more than 15 years of experience in women’s health, Dr. Sharon understands how to help patients recognize their symptoms and reclaim their wellness. Here are some of the signs you may need BHRT.
Signs You May Need BHRT
Many people brush off symptoms of hormone imbalance as “just stress” or “getting older,” but the body often gives clear signals that it’s something deeper. You may be a candidate for BHRT if you’re experiencing:
- Persistent low energy or afternoon crashes
- Difficulty concentrating or “brain fog.”
- Mood swings
- Unusual irritability
- Restless sleep or feeling tired when you wake up
- Hot flashes or night sweats
- Low libido
- Unexplained weight fluctuations (usually weight gain)
- Hair thinning
Because symptoms vary widely, a full medical evaluation is essential to determine whether hormones are contributing to your symptoms.
How EvexiPEL® BHRT Works
BHRT starts with a comprehensive lab testing. Dr. Sharon performs specific tests based on your symptoms. For example, she can check levels of not only estrogen and testosterone but also thyroid hormones, DHEA, cortisol, and others. This helps her customize your hormone therapy for your unique needs.
Dr. Sharon offers BHRT using EvexiPEL, a pellet-based method that provides steady, consistent hormone levels for around three to five months. EvexiPEL’s plant-derived hormones closely match the molecular structure of the body’s own hormones. This means your body “recognizes” the hormones and accepts them immediately, using them just as it does its own natural hormones.
Dr. Sharon inserts the tiny rice-sized pellets just beneath the skin during a simple in-office procedure. Because the EvexiPEL pellets release hormones steadily over time, you can avoid the ups and downs that can happen with daily medication or topical creams.
As hormones rise and return to optimal levels, you’ll start noticing improvements in mood, energy, sleep, focus, and overall quality of life.
