Hormone therapy involves using medications to supplement hormones when your body is not producing adequate amounts. As we age or due to certain medical conditions, our hormone levels can become imbalanced, leading to unpleasant symptoms. Hormone therapy can help restore optimal levels, allowing you to feel healthy and energized.
At Vitality Renewal Clinic in Port Orchard, we offer customized hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to help both men and women suffering from low testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and more.

Hormone deficiencies can severely impact quality of life. The earlier hormone imbalances are identified and properly treated, the more likely you are to avoid related health complications.
At Vitality Renewal Clinic, we emphasize the importance of diagnostic testing and prompt treatment. Our physicians order the appropriate blood panels or saliva tests to accurately diagnose any hormone deficiencies. We then customize therapeutic plans to help patients regain optimal hormone levels and feel their best again.
