WHEN IT COMES TO MOOD ENHANCING WITH BHRT, CUPID HITS THE MARK

How many of us have woken up and, for seemingly no reason, felt far from ourselves: cranky, crabby, grim, grumpy, gloomy, dismal, dejected, discouraged, down in the dumps? Mood plays a significant role in shaping daily experiences and how people interact with the world around them. Mood is a temporary emotional state or frame of mind that can influence how a person feels, thinks, and behaves at a particular time. Unlike emotions, which are often triggered by specific events, moods may not have a clear cause and can develop gradually. Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is frequently used for mood enhancing, helping to restore hormonal balance and improve overall well-being, allowing individuals to feel more like themselves again.

THE LINK BETWEEN HORMONES AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

When your body is unable to produce testosterone, progesterone, or estrogen, whether from menopause, aging, surgery, or a traumatic injury, you may notice a shift in how you feel. Factors that can affect mood include:

• Environmental influences like weather, surroundings, and social interactions can make a mess of your mood.
• Psychological states like stress, work environment, finances, and relationships can negatively affect mood.
• Life events, including grief and loss, moving, negative social media, and loneliness and isolation, can exacerbate emotional challenges.
• Primarily, biological pressures, such as hormonal changes, brain chemistry, and physical health, can put you in the mood or the dumps.

So, if you want to enhance your mood, what will it be? BHRT is the smart answer. You’ll love what it can do.

I’M IN THE MOOD FOR BHRT

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) is increasingly recognized not just for its ability to balance hormones but also for its potential to banish the blahs that can linger for months. This therapy uses compounds chemically identical to the hormones your body produces, offering a natural approach to hormonal balance. Hormones affect many systems and functions in your body. Even the slightest imbalance can cause symptoms that interfere with your day. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy may be the solution if you’re struggling with emotional fluctuations that seem beyond your control. By stabilizing your hormone levels, BHRT offers a path to improved physical health and a happier, more balanced emotional life.

GOTTA LOVE THOSE HORMONES

Hormones are chemical messengers that are produced by the endocrine glands. These powerful substances play a pivotal role in regulating various biological processes. As they travel through the bloodstream, hormones reach various tissues and organs, influencing numerous functions critical to health, mental health, and well-being. The powerful hormones often compounded into BHRT are for both women and men, often just acting in different ways. So what are these hormones and what part do they have in enhancing mood?

Estrogen: Estrogen influences serotonin, a neurotransmitter critical for mood stability and feelings of well-being. It helps increase serotonin production and the number of serotonin receptors in the brain. Estrogen Symptoms: when estrogen levels drop (as seen in puberty, perimenopause, menopause, pregnancy, and postpartum periods), depression, anxiety, or mood swings happen.  While every woman’s experience is different and unique, the hormone shifts and associated symptoms that occur during each of these events can be jarring.

Testosterone: As men age, they will experience an imbalance of any number of hormones, but your quality of life takes the biggest hit from a drop in testosterone. It’s entirely natural for your testosterone levels to reduce by 1-2% per year as you move into your 40’s. This drop in testosterone can lead to erectile dysfunction, depression, anxiety, reduced muscle mass, decreased energy, and weight gain. BHRT can effectively help relieve symptoms of andropause, which is often referred to as “male menopause,” and can seriously affect mood.

Progesterone: Progesterone is often called the “calming hormone” because it interacts with GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) receptors in the brain. GABA is a neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation and reduces anxiety.  Women experiencing premenstrual syndrome (PMS) or premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) often have large fluctuations in progesterone levels, leading to more pronounced mood changes. 

IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST PELLETS

Hormone optimization often uses bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) pellets, which contain testosterone or estrogen that the body sees as identical to what it produces naturally. Pellets are about the size of a grain of rice, inserted subcutaneously. They are dosed precisely for each patient’s needs, absorbed as the body needs them, providing a consistent controlled release of hormones, ensuring stable levels throughout the treatment period, and helping to avoid any hormonal rollercoaster. For women, pellet therapy manages the symptoms of menopause or perimenopause. For men, it addresses symptoms of low testosterone. With hormone pellets, your mood will be sailing on smooth waters.

ONE SHOT AND HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN

Like BHRT pellets, Testosterone injections can play a critical role in regulating and enhancing mood, energy, and overall mental well-being. They reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality, address symptoms of aging, and enhance neurotransmitter function, leading to increased feelings of happiness and an enhanced mood. Injections are typically administered on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, allowing for easier dosage modifications compared to the long-lasting, fixed release of pellets, which can be harder to customize once implanted. Pellets or injections, love conquers all.
