April is Parkinson’s Awareness Month

Parkinson’s disease effects approximately 60,000 American’s each year, though that number does not reflect the potentially thousands of cases that go undiagnosed or undetected. While there is no standard treatment for Parkinson’s as treatments are based on each individual’s specific symptoms, Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy has seen promising results.

In addition to hormone therapies, certain medications along with increasing your exercise and getting plenty of rest are also recommended. While these medications are often taken at different doses and throughout the day, BHRT pellets are inserted under the hip to deliver a precise dose of hormones 24 hours a day.

The hormones in BHRT pellets are customized for each patient based on their specific hormone panel and deficiencies. After insertion, the pellets release the specific levels of hormone necessary to aid in brain function such as dopamine, which is depleted in individuals with Parkinson’s disease.

If you or someone you know is living with Parkinson’s disease, give us a call at 201-225-2525 to schedule a consultation.  Let’s see if Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy is the right treatment for you.
