BHRT, TRT & Functional Medicine in Flower Mound, TX

BHRT uses hormones with the same molecular structure as those naturally produced by the body and is often discussed in connection with menopausal hormone therapy. TRT specifically refers to testosterone replacement therapy, generally used for men with confirmed testosterone deficiency. Both require appropriate medical evaluation.

Symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, reduced libido, fatigue, or changes in sexual function may prompt a hormone evaluation. However, these symptoms can have several causes. Your provider considers your medical history, symptoms, and appropriate testing before recommending treatment.

BHRT has potential benefits and risks. Some bioidentical hormone medications are FDA-approved, while compounded preparations have not undergone the same approval process. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, compounded bioidentical hormone products have not been shown to be safer or more effective than FDA-approved hormone therapies.

Men being evaluated for testosterone deficiency generally need laboratory testing to confirm consistently low testosterone levels alongside compatible symptoms. Additional testing may be required to assess potential causes, medical risks, and appropriate treatment options.

Functional medicine consultations may address concerns involving fatigue, digestive symptoms, metabolic health, sleep problems, nutritional deficiencies, and hormone-related conditions. Your provider reviews relevant health factors to recommend clinically appropriate evaluations and treatment options.

Costs depend on the treatment, medication, provider, and monitoring requirements. Some Texas providers advertise monthly hormone therapy programs, while others charge separately for consultations, prescriptions, and laboratory testing. Contact Apostol Health for current clinic-specific pricing.
